Music Monday: ‘Barb & Star Go to Vista Del Mar’ (Original Soundtrack) by Christopher Lennertz and Dara Taylor

I still don’t know what I watched through Barb & Star Go to Vista Del Mar, but it was delightful all around and the soundtrack especially is a bop. We still have “Edgar’s Prayer” performed by Jamie Dornan featuring Amy Keys on replay and quite frankly I don’t know when I’ll stop singing along to the ridiculous number. The movie is fun and ridiculous and just so deliciously kooky in all the right ways that the score/soundtrack being full of remixes such as Titanic’s “My Heart Will Go On” work wondrously. I don’t know how. I don’t get it. You

Music Monday: “Love Story” (Taylor’s Version) by Taylor Swift

“Love Story” has always been a special song. While Taylor Swift’s Fearless album isn’t a particular favorite of mine, a few of the tracks are undeniably wondrous. The music industry is flawed and terribly corrupt, we’re seeing all the ins and outs of it through Framing Britney Spears and we got a colossal glimpse of it through Swift’s inability to secure the rights to her own songs. (How? Are the white men in this industry going to continue to wait years in order to issue a typed out apology likely done by their PR team through social media?) Anyway, onto

Music Monday: ‘The Witcher’ (Original Score) by Sonya Belousova and Giona Ostinelli

One of us is late to the party and has finally started watching The Witcher. And unsurprisingly, since we are all obsessed with scores, this one needed to be highlighted this week–especially because we can’t seem to take “Everytime You Leave” off of replay. The score is mostly enamoring and a magical gut-punch that hits in all the right ways, but goodness, “Everytime You Leave” is escapism and angst in a ways so powerfully captivating, we might never be over it. There are 55 tracks in the captivating score and while they aren’t all ones we adore with a fire

Music Monday: ‘Emma’ 2020 (Original Score) by Isobel-Waller Bridge and David Schweitzer

Say what you will about Autumn de Wilde’s 2020 adaptation of Jane Austen’s Emma, I personally adore it. (And Emma is my favorite Austen novel, so yes, I’m generally pickier, but this was enjoyable through and through.) Differing opinions are fine, we get why it is not everyone’s cup of tea, but we will not stand for any criticism towards Isobel-Waller Bridge and David Schweitzer’s exquisite original score for the film. I proudly admit that the majority of these tracks were on my Spotify’s top played last year. Where, especially, are my Fleabag fans–this score is the perfect mix between

Music Monday: ‘Bridgerton’ Season 1 (Original Score) by Kris Bowers

It’s a new year, but it’s the return of former categories. It’s about time we start talking about music again especially when in this house, original scores are our everything. Is this not what everyone else has replay right now? We can’t be the only ones, right? It’s too good. I’m not someone who could listen to anything but instrumentals when writing so I’m always paying attention to film/TV scores for inspiration to add to my never-ending playlist on Spotify. Before Bridgerton even released, I was praying we’d get a great score too and well, that we did But I’ll
