Free Music Notes for Grey's Anatomy 2
Free Music Review: Lightning strikes twice!
Hit: 5 Stars
The magic from the first "Grey's Anatomy" soundtrack is just as strong here! Sincere, sexy, beautiful, graceful, spunky, smart: this album is too good for mere words. It may not be as introspective or moody as say Meredith or season one's album, but the liner notes say it best when they refer to the music as "deep, rabid, scary, not-cute and obsessive."
I guarantee you'll get goosebumps and completely dig the music therapy being offered. I can back my overzealous plug 100 percent so let's get started.(Forgive me in advance if I take the "quick notes" approach here...I picked my top 13 favorite songs and couldn't go any lower because it's just so hard!)
1) "How to Save a Life" by the Fray--a perfect and lovely companion to Snow Patrol's "Chasing Cars," the song that closes everything. Very few soundtracks bookend so well. I think more films could take their cues from television when it comes to setting the musical tone.
2)"War on Sound" by Moonbabies--lots of teasing rhythm and echoes of a great 80s group called China Crisis.
3)"I Me You" by Jim Noir--offers a nice 60s flair while keeping a modern touch. Sweet and romantic without losing its edge.
4)"Kaboom!" by Ursula 1000-outrageously right with shades of martini music and Austin Powers...adorably goofy!!
5)"Miss Halfway" by Anya Marina--opens with a line that is both brilliant and sad ("You ought to hear the mirror in my house.") Though the theme is probably familiar to any woman who has ever doubted herself, the spirit is one of quiet rebellion and wit! Awesome, awesome song!!
6)"Multiply" by James Lidell--slow and sexy with real bite. Imagine if Terence Trent D'Arby decided to go 60s soul! (Okay, that reference might be a little dated. Sorry!)
7)"Universe and U" by KT Tunstall--vulnerability at its best with gravel and attitude...You'll be catching your breath from wonder at this point!
8)"Monster Hospital" by Metric--deliciously wicked, deliciously wicked!! Metric provides the kind of energy that drives you all night, with all of its beats behind the great line "I fought the war and the war won." I can't think of a better song to match the "it's the hardest job there is, but I won't give up" approach doctors and nurses need in the ER.
9)"How We Operate" by Gomez--exposed and honest, a huge favorite of mine, but then every track here seeps into my skin.
10)"Grace" by Kate Havnevik--wow!!!...a gorgeous ballad with so much emotion at stake only the cello can back it up with dignity. Best line: "turn your grief into grace." For some reason I'm reminded of "A Different Corner" by George Michael.
11)"Sexy Mistakes" by The Chalets--asks the question, "What's a girl to do?" I'll tell you right now. She listens to this fantastic head banger of a song and doesn't care if people are staring at her when she stops at a traffic light!
12)"Bound by Love" by Gran Bel Fisher--pretty. Okay, I'm running out of appropriate adjectives here, but it IS pretty in an 80s meets the 00s kind of way.
13)"I Hate Everyone" by Get Set Go--clever, funny and absolutely perfect for listening to during rush hour on a Monday morning. Did I say I love, love, love this album?
I could go on (and on) but I'll spare you. I am completely saturated in the best ways possible with every note from every song--for the sake of going to sleep I beg Shonda Rimes and Betsy Beers to take a break from being so good at picking out the music for this wonderful show! To quote something from track number eight, "Stop, for the love of God!"
Grey's Anatomy 2 Poster
This soundtrack to the hit TV series starts off with a melancholy ballad by Denver's the Fray (fittingly titled "How to Save a Life"), but the well-curated CD isn't all thoughtful adult alt-rock--reflecting the series' mood changes, it offers a wide range of modern sounds. In addition to the expected acoustical numbers (in this case, from Anya Marina, KT Tunstall, and Snow Patrol's live version of "Chasing Cars"), the album reaches across genres and continents to offer the sunny-'60s-pop vibe of Jim Noir's "I Me You," Jamie Lidell's electro-jazzy "Multiply," the edgy punky-pop aggro of Metric, the rambunctious "Sexy Mistake" from the Chalets, and the winning singalong misanthropy of singer-songwriter Foy Vance's "I Hate Everyone." Ursula 1000's Alex Gimeno lightens up the proceedings with one of his trademark upbeat, hip-gyrating numbers (which seems to pay tribute to Serge Gainsbourg's "Comic Strip"), while the Moonbabies' sweet, swirling harmonies deliver the kind of perfectly crafted pop we've come to expect from the Swedes. If this compilation turns people on to these deserving acts, it will have done its job. --Elisabeth VincentelliAlternative Rock Music CDs
