Music from Chapters 15 & 16

Hi all. *peeks head from around the corner*

So sorry it has been so long since I updated the music section on this blog, I guess it was the Prodigy. It tends to shake me…

So let’s dive right in to Chapter 15, and get to the music! Earbuds in, here we go.

Chapter 15

This End of the Telescope, Jakob Dylan

This song just feels sweet and unhurried, lazy and warm, like an afternoon in the sun. It’s romantic but thick, like when you’re bundled up in a blanket and the temperature is just perfect, not quite hot, but more than cuddle.

Afterglow, INXS

To be clear, I am still in mourning for Michael Hutchence. But I do sincerely love this song. I feel like had it been written in the 80s, it would have made the soundtrack in any John Hughes movie.

Chapter 16

Swoon, The Mission U.K.

This is a band Mr. Alice introduced me to years and years ago, and I’ll be god damned if you can find me a sexier song than this one. *shivers*

Cry Love, John Hiatt

I learned about John Hiatt when I first moved to LA, and fell in love with his rich voice and sultry/silly lyrics. You will see that John Hiatt is peppered throughout the Redhead Soundtracks, as he has such a strong storytelling voice. He served as the inspiration for many scenes, and this seemed appropriate at Jack and Grace begin to explore their silly side, mixed with serious sexy.

Break Stuff/Limp Bizkit

There are days man, there are days. When screaming won’t suffice, when driving fast won’t suffice, when shit needs to break.

Don’t Go Away, Oasis

I won’t lie, I love me some Oasis. There is such a specific sound to this band, such a specific image that I get when I listen to their songs. Bowl cuts and sibling rivalry aside, they were a great band. Don’t go away? Sums up the subtext perfectly I think.
