oh for the love of....

I love Metric...I love Death Cab...but why oh why....is there such an insufferable need to make music for the Twilight series of movies? Metric is now co-writing for the 3rd installment : Eclipse.

The songs are great, but there's always a part of me that just can't take it seriously.

Yes, i'd still give up my first born for Emily Haines, but that's another story.

One Week Soundtrack

you know. I've wanted to see One Week for a long time. Not because of Joshua Jackson, (who's come a long way from that Pacey gig on Dawson's creek and has done well on Fringe), but because of the Canadian experience. A movie about a man diagnosed with cancer who decides to ride his motorcycle west from Toronto to BC. In search for the meaning in his life.

Imagine my surprise when I'm listening to the music in the movie. FANTASTIC! A veritable cornucopia of Canadian talent that fit the movie to a tee. It's as if you were hearing Canada and not just watching it. And no, "i'm a lumberjack" is not Canadiana.
