I love movie soundtracks. All kinds of movie soundtracks.
I love the combination of original music and songs from different decades that comprise a movie soundtrack.
I love that which is the movie soundtrack.
It floats my boat.
So…
I was home alone last night and decided to pull up It’s Complicated on Netflix. I tried to watch the new The X-Files series, but it was an eye-popping horror. Literally. I squeaked through the original series (1993-2002) because — Hello! — CGB Spender, aka Smoking Man, Cancer Man, Cigarette-Smoking Man… and I was much younger then.
So…
It’s Complicated – 1) Because Meryl Streep. 2) Because Baldwin Blue Eyes. ‘Nuff said. 3) Because watching Steve Martin play a subdued character. 4) Because Nancy Meyer.
And the expression on Jane Adler’s (Meryl Streep) face when she looks in the mirror flying high and happy on dandelions, I mean Weed.
Is that what I look like?
And Jane Adler’s trip to the plastic surgeon over her droopy eyelid. Dodged a bullet there, Jane.
So…
Let’s just fly high and happy on some It’s Complicated movie soundtrack.
Leo Sayer’s You Make Me Feel Like Dancing — but It’s Complicated. (1976)
Fine Young Cannibals’ Good Thing — but It’s Complicated. (1988)
The Beach Boys’ Wouldn’t It Be Nice — but It’s Complicated. (1966)
Leo and I might have the same dance moves.
Mebbe.
Tuesday, y’all.

I was a big fan of the original X-files. Completely forgot about it last night. It’s complicated 😉 Great song choices!

I know all the songs! One day my girlfriend and her husband were over and it was pouring rain. She and I started watching the sound of music and singing the songs. You should’ve seen the guys’ faces. lol

Never got into X files. Maybe I’ll binge watch it one weekend.
Best soundtrack or at least top 3: The Commitments

I just checked out the playlist for The Commitments. Holy cow! I don’t think I ever saw that movie. I’m going to have to rectify that. Thanks for the tip, Gruhn!

You are funny. I clicked ‘Reply’ before I finished with, ‘But, It’s Inconvenient’. As far as your ‘work here being done’, it’s eerily remindful of what George Eastman (founder of Kodak said before pulling the trigger. Look it up, it must be on the Internet…but ‘It’s inconvenient’
