The music of a Last Kiss

So I haven't seen the film yet, but I plan to do so next week with Dimsumdolly. We'll most likely schedule a viewing of the original Italian version when Tiggie, aka Ms Overacuppa, returns with the DVD in December. As of now, she has it in her apartment in bitterly cold Minnesota! Thank you, Tiggie, for helping me get hold of the DVD.

In anticipation of the films, I thought I'd put up two songs, one from each version. From the American adaptation - Imogen Heap's string mix of "Hide and Seek," a song I like not least because it has a favorite phrase of mine, "what the hell." The string-less version is what you get on the soundtrack, though both are equally surreal, as are unexpected betrayals and disappointments. It's a wonderful contrast, the ethereal vocals and the sharp, angry lyrics.

And from the Italian version - "L'Ultimo Bacio." Carmen Consoli's voice is a dream.

You're welcome too! DSD put me up to it. She said I should share some of the good music I have, and I thought it a good idea too.
