movie soundtracks and other relaxing music

[The Vector Doctor]

Lately I have been listening to and discovering music of this genre. After awhile, I get tired of rock, rap, pop, top 40

Here are a few of my new favs, when you want to escape. In some cases, having watched the movie gives them even more emotion

Two of my all-time fave soundtracks are O Brother Where Art Thou and Cold Mountain.
Another good one is A Clockwork Orange.
I rarely listen to the radio.

We play the soundtrack to "for a few dollars more","Once upon a time in the west" and "O'Brother", It is a nice change from the radio. Have you ever been on Lastfm.com. You can create your own radio station. Pretty cool stuff on there, and it is FREE!
