is there a particular song that you would love to see used just right in a movie or better yet, hope to God nobody gets to it before you do?  post it here, or don't because you just may ruin your chances of using it............





.......for me it's: kbca, kacj, od ti magai by yeltse adn.  if you can unscarmble it then it probably wasn't meant to be.  i don't imagine the unscrambling will be too difficult though.  i can feel it all slipping away now.

anyways, go ahead!

Find Your Magali

I've always wanted to use the Counting Crows' stuff as inspiration for a movie, a la PTA with Mann's stuff for Magnolia.

Duritz is such a great lyrics writer; there's a story in ever song.

Probably because they're all HIS stories.


....Anyway, hmmm, there's also a beautiful instrumental piece of music by Elton John called "Carla Etude" that I always thought should be in a movie.

I would like Radiohead to do an entire original soundtrack for a film, like Air with Virgin Suicides

There is also a track from Garbage called "You look so fine" that i have always loved and would love to hear in a theater accompained with the perfect scene.

i'd love to see a song in spanish called "A rodar la vida" (Let's roll the life or something like that) in a movie, in fact i would like to use it in my new script but i can't find the way, cause that's a very hopeful song and my story is so dark so...maybe i've got to wait

SoNowThen

I always wanted to open a film with "To Be Young"  by Ryan Adams, and then Old School did it (terribly).
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

Maybe that contrast would be a good thing.

Eward, I descrambled your mystery song almost immediately. But never fear, I won't steal it.

There's a song I'm deadset on using someday, but I won't mention it here. I also really wanted to use Ruby Tuesday, up until it showed up in Royal Tennenbaums. But its use there was so perfect it was okay.

"Hello Operator" by the White Stripes. It'd be the perfect back-in-the-hunt song for someone that just broke up with their significant other. Shoot it slow-mo as they walk down a hall.
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, with all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, let me forget about today until tomorrow.

what is hip- tower of power.  (this song would work well ironically- like to show a character's panic).  
nobody's fault but my own- beck (i don't know where it'd work but this song inspires me. i listen to it and i think "cinema.")
satisfied mind- jeff buckley (any dramatic tender context).  
it's wonderful- ella fitzgerald (great romantic song)
i wanna lick 'em.
