Off of their first album, Psychocandy. I when I saw this movie, I loved the soundtrack, and was hoping for some JAMC, the whole way through...then the end...perfect. |

Love this sound. Just saw BRMC in SF the other night, which is the closest band with that sound today. Wailing guitars, hand-clapping and tambourines.

That opening drumbeat has probably been used in scores of songs, but the opening chord sequence is different from that of The Ronettes' "Be My Baby". That may not stop Phil Spector from trying to sue though - this band was seemingly going for the "wall of sound" production in this number. |

The song, a Phil Spector wall-of-sound classic, played over the opening scene of Scorcese's Mean Streets. I thought this also as it is exactly the same beat. And I was really disappointed when the Ronnettes didn't chime in! However, it gets a 7 in my book. |

Yeah I uploaded it and it got sorried. Then the movie came out and someone else must have uploaded it again... Better late than never I guess. It was upload # 4150 by the way. They're in the 45000 area now... |

Did it take this over-rated bore (OK, Bill Murray is a genious, but still...) for people to wake up to the early brilliance of The Jesus & Mary Chain??? Are we SO behind of the times???!!!?? |

Uphill both ways, let me tell you. Then we had to work in the factory 25 hours a day, 8 days a week. But tell that to kids now-a-days and they just won't believe you. |

Every time I tavel to Europe...the resulting jet lag leaves me in a weird dreamlike state for at least three days. Going as far as Japan must be even worse...for me...that was what the movie depicted so well. You kinda just go with the flow and end up doing things (Like the Kareoke scene) you would never do at home.
Sometimes movies and music..all art really....require you to engage with them...interact with them. People are getting too lazy to even put a little something of themselves into experiences like a movie. Hence all the stories that rely on huge special effects and forget to write a good storyline. I know people under thirty who refuse to watch anything filmed in black and white for chrissakes...one third of the greatest films of all time were B & W! Many didn't even have sound. That's like saying the Beatles weren't worthwhile until they recorded in stereo! Give it a chance!
OK...I'll get off the soapbox. Thanks for the rant-time. I'll get back to my rat catching. Now where did I leave that aluminum softball bat?
Did you also walk uphill to school everyday....in a snowstorm...with an onion on your belt...and like it? :) j/k. I enjoyed the movie and soudtrack as well (Air is an awesome band). And I'm a fellow fan of classic/black & white movies. And I just turned 30 last week...so there? |

Summery late 80's wispy high-feedback memories...
J & M Chain were huge in Japan, if I am not mistaken, which makes inclusion in the Lost soundtrack appropriate
