A song that makes me think of Brokeback Mountain
Becky:
I do believe I have found the perfect song to describe our boys first tent scene:
Heartbeats- José González
One night to be confused
One night to speed up truth
We had a promise made
Four hands and then away
Both under influence we had divine scent
To know what to say
Mind is a razorblade
To call for hands of above to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough for me
One night of magic rush
The start: a simple touch
One night to push and scream
And then relief
Ten days of perfect tunes
The colours red and blue
We had a promise made
We were in love
And you, you knew the hand of a devil
And you kept us awake with wolves teeth
Sharing different heartbeats in one night
What do you think? Don't you agree that so applies to Jack and Ennis on their first night?

The song is actually a cover of an original by The Knives. It's very different - electro in style. But I think this guitar based version is wonderfully appropriate for BBM. It is on the BBM radio playlist!

Wow, I never knew about the Knives version, I will have to check that out. I just heard this song today(on an advert infact. I know, how cultured am I?) and thought it was perfect for BBM, it seems Philip had the same idea when compiling the radio playlist. I think this song is perfect for BBM, I am not quite sure about the knives version cause I haven't heard it yet, but all I know is I love this version and it will forever remind me of the wonderful BBM. ;D

This past Saturday night, as I was eating my supper, I popped my CD of the Eagles' "Greatest Hits" into the CD player. Of course, as some of you young whipper snappers may not know, the years of the Eagles' greatest popularity correspond to the central years of Ennis and Jack's relationship.
I'm not saying the correspondence is exact, but this one really made me think of Ennis, especially in Don Henley's slightly hoarse voice, and especially that last line, "before it's too late."
"Desperado"
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get
Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're losin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late

Becky and Jeff - both your songs really do mirror BBM! Thanks for keeping the posts coming.
