I love a good movie soundtrack. Please don't misunderstand me - I'm not talking about a list of 80s song that accompanied a campy teen flick. Or a bunch of random ass no name bands that someone is trying to make cooler than they are... I'm talking about original scores. Music that was written specifically to accompany a movie. Music that was dreamt up in someone's mind the first time they read a script.
I love music that stirs emotions while you are engrossed in the story, that rises and falls with the happy and sad, that conveys the mood and sticks with you. I have my favorites - the soundtracks that I actually purchased because the music was just beautiful. Forrest Gump. The Lion King. Dragonheart. Titanic. Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. There's a list of music I played in the band growing up that every time I hear it, I'm taken back to being 15 years old, moved to tears in the middle of a concert because the music was that powerful.
Just recently I found the most amazing playlist online that I listen to every time I study. You can find it HERE. There are songs from certain movies on this playlist that I had forgotten about. Songs that I love. I figured I would share it because music is a gift and it should be shared with others. I hope you like it as much as I do!
