More dabbling in my "hobby"

Here are some of the sounds of my show that I liked. These are really great pieces of music. I appreciate their emotional charge. A bit of the "007," a bit of the melancholy angst of oppression. Here are the best....

Imagining being set free
  • http://members.aol.com/cusmus2/music/torn.wav
  • (Rose Chronicles "Torn")

    Discovery, disillusion and rebellion
  • http://members.aol.com/cusmus2/music/chansuck.wav
  • (Chainsuck, "Big Mistake")

    The moment of shock having trust broken
  • http://members.aol.com/cusmus2/music/heyman.au
  • (Filter "Hey Man Nice Shot")

    A 007 Go
  • http://members.aol.com/cusmus2/music2/loadgun.wav
  • (Hednoize "Loaded Gun")

    These last two are my most favorites.

    This one is that moment when she can finally see her ideals come to fruition. The lyrics are intensely idealisticly romantic, bordering on a wrongful worship. Whew. The lyrics for what you will hear in the clip:

    "This could shatter your heart
    The reflection of your soul
    Was a vision of me
    Take all that I could be
    Take all I should be
    May faith lead your way
    Did you know it was me"

  • (Beverly Klass "Temple")

    And for very last, the song which captures that bitterness I can't even describe well, where she had used all of her efforts, wits, and power to bargain her freedom. When that moment came to cash in, lo, and behold, they over-strategized her on a technicality. She'd have to remain. Probably the most important scene in all of the seasons.

    They did a really good job choosing their tracks. They have chosen pieces from Sarah McLaughlin, Depeche Mode, Garbage, etc. but it's amazing to think that they picked them before they had become hits, and in the case of Garbage, before they had their first hit single. I have those two favorite ones above on the La Femme Nikita Soundtrack album; I should pull it out and listen to it again.

    All of these clips were selected from Karen Glover's amazing website, Sounds of La Femme Nikita....
