I didn't post a song last week. I wasn't really listening to anything new. Sometimes I get into a music "rut" where all I want to do is listen to the same song/group over and over. Well this week I finally have something new!!!!!!! Or, newer. New to me.
There's this movie that came out back in 2006 called Once. Not a movie I would think of seeing unless it came on TV but a good friend said "hey, you should watch this movie". So I did. And I really really liked it! It's cute and witty and so sweet in so many places (and IMO has one of the worst and best pick up lines ever, both by the same character). It's a musical and filled with so many good songs, but it was Falling Slowly that really caught my ear. I stopped everything I was doing and just sat in awe at the screen. Just listen. And if you haven't seen the movie, and like musicals, I'd be sure to check it out.
I have absolutely NO idea how I know this song but I do! I have heard it a number of times from some place and for the life of me I cannot figure out where. Anyways, love the song and I will definitely be checking out this movie!
ReplyDeleteOnce is one of my favorite movies of all time :) it's simply amazing. You should check out more songs by Glen Hansard. He's brilliant!
ReplyDeleteP.S. this song won an Oscar in 2006 for best song from a movie ;)
The entire soundtrack for 'Once' is all kinds of awesome. The movie itself is really great.
ReplyDeleteIt's okay. I'd rather listen to Hansen.
ReplyDeleteApparently Hanson is spelled with an 'o'. Another joke ruined.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the movie but I am loving the song. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this song so much and I LOVE Once!!!! Great choice :)
ReplyDeleteI love this song too. You have great taste in music. You gotta change your Jamie book widget bc it is OUT now:)
ReplyDeleteAlso, is your girl Anna coming to my town on her tour? Bc maybe you could both come and see me this summer. Just saying.
