RE: What are you listening to?

Went to watch the new Bruce Willis Sci-Fi/time travel blockbuster last night, Looper.

 

Halfway through, totally out of the blue, the soundtrack was Richard & Linda Thompson's "I Want To See The Bright Light's Tonight". The director must be a fan, couldn't see how the song fitted in myself. No matter, great song, and an even greater album..

Mike Oldfield - Tubular bells 3

Start listening from 4.20 onwards. If that electric guitar doesn't give you goose bumps then you have no soul.
