Movie and Muscial Monday--Falling Slowly

I never thought I would be posting a You Tube video on any of my blogs, mainly because I have dial-up and it is very difficult to view videos, but I saw the movie Once, back in August. I fell in love. It is a wonderful film, beautifully done, plus Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova created magic, their two voices as they blend are truly amazing. Magical.

If you have not seen Once, I highly recommend it.

Anyway, this past weekend I purchased the Soundtrack CD. I love every song, it brought so many scenes to mind. In addition, the song Falling Slowly makes me cry each time I listen. Actually several of the songs make me cry, hmmm, maybe I am extra emotional right now.

I have the hope that this video is a good one (since as I mentioned demon dial-up is the not the best for viewing videos...sigh).

Anyway, have a listen, see the movie, and fall in love.






I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along
