Before we get to the final post in the "Music That Currently Makes Me Happy" series, did anyone see the GOP debate last night? I was unable to, though I was encouraged by an article that said that Ron Paul "was the crowd favorite."
Oh, the joys of being able to vote in the next election!! I can't wait.
We wrap up with miscellaneous music: two alternative songs and a soundtrack song.
First, Under the Milky Way by the Church. This guy's voice....oh...my...gosh. I love it. Just the title of the song makes me happy thinking about it. These Aussies are pretty awesome.
Next, Elephant Love Medley from Moulin Rouge. This song is SO BRILLIANT on so many levels. Baz Luhrmann took what on their own are sappy love pop songs and combined them into the medley, which is PERFECT for Christian and Satine in the movie. I hadn't even liked most of these songs on their own, but combined, they rock.
On a side note, this is a very cool video that someone made of the original songs in the medley against pictures of Satine and Christian.
Finally, Wonderwall by Oasis. You'll remember I've been obsessed with this song for quite a long time.
Still love it.
Honorable Mentions: Where the Streets Have No Name, (Pet Shop Boys version) Nara, (E.S. Posthumous) Test Drive, (How to Train Your Dragon soundtrack) Lucky, (Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat) In Your Eyes (Peter Gabriel) and Come What May and Your Song. (from Moulin Rouge)

2 musings:
Have you heard Paul Anka's cover of Wonderwall? I actually really like it. My sister thinks anyone besides Oasis doing it is just wrong.
You have great taste in music! I would add to those "Bela Legosi's Dead", "Cuts You Up", and of course "A Forest".
