Free Music Notes for Last Kiss
Free Music Review: One of these things first
Hit: 5 Stars
Zach Braff has a better musical inclination than I. I must admit. What's amazing about this soundtrack is how it has to strike a note with anyone remotely into any music. It's like a refreshing Garden State Volume 2. It's a step ahead, more ambitious but the wind around the music is the same. Mind you, there is no "New Slang" or "One Of These Things First"
I've only heard this cd some six times but I know I will like every song on it,soon. Chocolate sounds better in this album than it did on the Snow Patrol album (for some reason) "Star Mile" is the star song of the record. It is about a guy who leaves this girl who was the one who loved him when noone did. "Pain Killer" will sound good after I watch this film."Warning Sign" surprised me. It somehow makes things look majestic. Excellent. Cary Brothers' "Ride" is the album's "Caring is Creepy".El Savador is good,too.However, "Reason Why" is just plain boring. "Prophecy" can give me a short attention span. One of the three best tracks on the cd is "Arms of a Woman" I mean , WOW!
The Last kiss is basically a cumulation of diverse talent meant for diverse moods which might come under one bracket. You can hear these songs the day your first child is born, the day your girlfriend breaks your heart, the night when you're feeling dull and life seems to be happening somewhere else. It's like a book which is unlike the many on a shelf. This is meant for neurotics, too. "Cigarettes and chocolate milk" is another different track that will lighten your mood. "Paperweight" somehow makes me impatient but someday I will hear it.
p.s - I don't like chocolate milk. Not at all.
Free Music Review: Zach Braff must love me -- he made me a new mix tape
Hit: 5 Stars
Given the immense success of the Garden State soundtrack, it's little wonder that Zach Braff was asked to produce the soundtrack for his new film, The Last Kiss. As Braff himself has said, the album can be considered a sequel of sorts to the Garden State soundtrack -- the mellow tone of the new album is very similar. Overall, however, the Last Kiss soundtrack exudes a slightly more mature vibe than its predecessor, which isn't surprising given the closer-to-30-than-20 themes of his new film.
Highlights of the album include Imogen Heap's "Hide and Seek," a truly unique standout, as well as Athlete's "El Salvador," a fun song that's guaranteed to have you singing along. Lesser-known artists shine -- Joshua Radin's "Star Mile" immediately conjures up images of Paul Simon -- while better known names like Coldplay and Fiona Apple contribute strong offerings, as well.
I'm a big fan of soundtracks as catalysts for discovering new music, but many can be hit and miss. The Last Kiss soundtrack, though, doesn't include a single track that I'll be tempted to skip over. If you enjoyed the Garden State album, then this is a shoo-in; if you're unfamiliar with many of the artists but generally like the singer-songwriter alt vibe, then give it a try.
Free Music Review: Mr Braff, You've Done It AGAIN
Hit: 5 Stars
With the Garden State soundtrack, Zach Braff showed that he could assemble a winning combination of music that perfectly captures the mood and message of the accompanying film. With The Last Kiss soundtrack, he's done it again, blending bigger names like Coldplay with newer faces like Joshua Radin and Cary Brothers who are equally as good. The set leans decidedly towards the indie and alternative genres, and there is a heavy emphasis on singer/songwriters, but when they are all this good there can be no complaints. If the soundtrack is this good, I can't wait until the movie is released!!!Free Music Review: Off the beaten path
Hit: 5 Stars
Think Garden State soundtrack....if you loved that one - then you will love this. It actually feautures a lot of the same artists. I like this CD because it's an eclectic mix of bluesy, upbeat, downbeat somber songs.
It features Imogen Heap, Cary Brothers, Coldplay and more.
The music fits perfectly to the movie!
I like the cd because it exposes you to music you don't hear everyday- or sometimes ever...on the radio. It's an off the beaten path mix of songs that make you feel good.
Free Music Review: Once again...
Hit: 5 Stars
People can go on and on about how much they loved Garden State (I certainly did) but without the music Zach Braff choose it would not have been so powerful or so well recepted. From the trailer I had hopes that I would find the same thing again in this although Braff is not directing. While I have not yet found something like "Let Go" which stands as one of my favorate songs of all time, this album is in is own way just as good as Garden State its just... Different so keep that in mind while purchasing.
