Songs and artists you like purely from hearing them first on a tv/film soundtrack...........

[Aero]

This is my latest discovery. Keep Breathing by Ingrid Michaelson I'd never heard of her before. Gorgeous (sad) song.

Anyone got any more?

Started this very late last night, so little bump.

Don't you forget about me --Simple Minds

from The Breakfast Club. will never forget that, AND finding it on 12'', boy was that record spun!!

Aimee Mann - Wise Up, at the end of Magnolia. Spine tingling...

Breathe by Sia - from the last-ever Six Feet Under. S'wonderful.

I first heard Sarah McLachlan on 'City of Angels'

Feel free to add links - I always like to hear new music.

TheOldestCat - that's just the sort of thing I love - another to add to my list.

Benny & Joon I think it was a Joe Cocker version in the film, but I prefer this one it seems!

Aero, glad you like the Sia song; it's beautiful isn't it? if you ever watched Six Feet Under, then you'll love the finale

sobs

Watched all of SFU over the last 6 months or so

It was brilliant, wasn't it? DH bought me the entire thing on DVD to watch when I went on maternity leave (while waiting for DD to arrive). Loved it.

If DD had been a boy, i'd have been angling for Nate as a name...

(sorry to hijack your interesting thread, Aero. Love the Ingrid Michaelson song, cheers).

It was weird and great all at once

I love this song from Cruel Intentions - had no idea it was Counting Crows til I bought the soundtrack.

Also bought the whole Aqualung album based on the VW ad...

this and this from 10 things i hate about you

sod it this one too (That film has a good soundtrack!) Your winter is still my fave though

Melissa Etheridge from Brother Bear 2 "it will be me". It makes me boo every time I hear it.

smog - "vessel in vain" from dead man's shoes. great film, great soundtrack.

Second Aimee Mann, first heard by me on Magnolia soundtrack.

In the House In a Heartbeat is one of my favourite pieces of music, from 28 later. Gets played a lot in the gym.

loads of individual songs from tarantino films.
