Subject: RE: Folk Songs In Movie Soundtracks
Thought perhaps my recent post might be more, or as, suitable in this thread re movie music (which subject could probably be added to by now anyway!)

Just came across this YouTube clip of "Falling Slowly" (from the 2007 Irish film, "Once"), and fell in love with the song All Over Again!!

10 years on, and Glen [Hansard] & Marketa [Irglova] still move me, and, I believe it's still being sung in Folk Sessions/Clubs.....

ENJOY!

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'll make 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
