...from the Season Two soundtrack. Anything goes, Top 5, Top 10 if you want, add mini-reviews, etc.

My top 5 are as follows:

1. Harold's Theme: I never thought this would be my favourite but it seems, for me at least, to be the one that hits me the hardest emotionally. Like dugpa's review of the CD said, it just conjures up images of Harold alone in his apartment tending to his orchids. Sad, but amazing.

2. Josie and Truman: I love this song. Jazzy, swinging and real sweet. I particularly enjoy this one as it reminds me of the scene with Cooper and Wheeler talking about Audrey/Annie respectively. I love that scene, and the music too.

3. Shelley: This song just has "Twin Peaks" embedded into every chord. I loved when Angelo uploaded this to his myspace, but was even more pleased when this came on to find that it is an extended version. Beautiful little tune.

4. High School Swing: This has such a great 50's vibe to it, it makes me feel real happy. I was never a fan of the scenes of Nadine at High School, but i really like this little tune. Short and sweet.

5. Blue Frank: This track is just plain awesome. Picking up where the Pink Room track off the awesome FWWM soundtrack left off, this song just grooves on and on, layered with whirring and waving guitar effects with some lush industrial samples. This song just begs to be turned up loud, and it has been quite often!

Other tracks nearly making the top 5 were New Shoes (particularly with headphones, try it out!), Half Heart (this sounds like a slowed down instrumental of Until The End Of The World off of Cruise's The Voice Of Love album.....weird), Dark Mood Woods/The Red Room (loooonnng and drrreeeaaammmy) and of course Laura's Dark Boogie (creepy slow jazz number, i love it).

All in all, i am chuffed to bits with the CD. There is not a bad song on it; and for the record i love Just You and the Hookrug Dance, so SILENCE to all you nay-sayers! ;) 

Nice. And appropriate since I am listening to it for the third time today!

1. Josie and Truman - one of Angelo's best jazz arrangements period. And the sections never used in the show make this piece really stand out on its own.

2. Audrey's Prayer - I have to put this second because this is one track I have longed for on CD the most and especially since it was such an intregal part of the second season sound

3. Shelly - love this track and the scene it was first used in, just a lovely arrangement all around.

4. Harold's Theme - The first time this track played and that haunting guitar was ringing through my apartment, I was like what is this and then I heard the keyboard and knew what it was before I check the CD listing. This is a truly remarkable track, but it's too short!!

5. Half Heart - another example of just how awesome Angelo Badalamenti can be....

6. Hook Rug Dance - enough said.

7. Night Bells - I don't why exactly but I love that this was included on the soundtracks perhaps because of the feelings it evokes.

8. Drug Deal Blues - one of the rockingest song ever heard in the Twin Peaks Universe.

9. Blue Frank - it's nice to have this one here.

10. Dark Mood Woods/Red Room - again, this soundtrack would not be complete with this selection of music from the series finale.
