How often do you find the right person? Once…

“Once”, an independent movie produced by Fox Searchlight music. The part I like best about it: You can listen to the entire soundtrack online at: http://www.foxsearchlight.com/once/

Now, I’ll be the first one to admit, no matter how good the soundtrack, take it out of the movie and music’s ability to move you diminishes somewhat. But to the extent that it can, this soundtrack still manages to evoke a strong emotional response. My personal favorite has to be “Falling Slowly”. But I’m getting ahead of myself. The tracks can be divided up into two groups. The ones that tend to touch some chord inside you somewhere. And then there are the other more light hearted ones. Overall the music has a strong emphasis on vocals, its folksy, with most songs set to a guitar, a piano and a violin. Other than “Falling Slowly”, I like “Lies”, “If you want me” and some others that I forget the name of. Just go listen to the tracks yourself. And if you like them, you might like the movie as well, so go ahead and support your local independent theater

And pay attention to the lyrics of “Broken Hearted Hoover…”
