"Heart Full of Black" - Burning Brides

I discovered this band when I first started working for Black Sand Music, a music placement agency who takes care of the band's licensing. "Heart Full of Black" would work great in "Wanted," based upon Mark Millar's graphic novel and starring Angelina Jolie, Morgan Freeman, and James McAvoy. (Burning Brides are today's Myspace Records Spotlight!)

"Last Words" - The Real Tuesday Weld

I have this song in mind for two movies that don't have trailers yet. So for now, I'll keep them a surprise. Keep you coming back for more. For now, please enjoy the song. It truly is brilliant:

"Fidelity" - Regina Spektor

This isn't really a suggestion to use a song. The song I would have suggested was used!!! Did I copy them or did they copy me? My video was up first!!! Compare the following trailer with another one of my O.C. music videos! (notice the identical scenes in which they both try on wedding dresses; notice the part in The O.C. video in which we hear, "suppose I kept on singing love songs just to break my own fall" and Summer sits watching Julie's wedding)

"A Really Good Cloak" - Mark Isham

My love for movie scores is just as great as my love for soundtracks. Because a movie score composer only begins a song once he is given a movie, I have decided to do somthing new - use already existing scores and place them into different scenes. I have used Mark Isham's "A Really Good Cloak" in "The O.C." (Its fun to see how the scene changes when you move the gun shot to a different moment in the song.)

"Take the Money" - Carina Round

I watched the first episode of Dirty Sexy Money. And this is the second time I thought of a Carina Round song since I started this blog. She's that good! Seriously, why doesn't anybody know about this girl yet???
