Re: Favorite music soundtrack of your life?

Oh, boy, @Brisky , you do pose a challenge.  I'll boil it down though to one influential album:

 

"Bobby Short Loves Cole Porter",   with debonair composer Cole Porter memorably pictured on the back:

Bobby Short, award-winning cabaret 'song stylist', fixture of New York's Hotel Carlyle for decades, is the perfect interpreter of Porter--  he too was debonair, sophisticated, elegant, crooning and playing every night in his tux at the Carlyle.  They could have been twins.

MR. SUNSHINE.  I am sure not many people will recognize this.  But it is from a Korean Drama.  The music is absolutely beautiful....I can't understand any of the Korean words. But there are English songs interspersed.  For anyone who might want to see this K-drama, it is well worth your time.......Besides this, I love Queen........Two ends of the spectrum, and love them both!

@Brisky is very flexible.  I think she's okay with anything you want to post -- soundtrack, album, genre...

Re: Favorite music soundtrack of your life?

Glad you said that, @just bee ,  since I'm one of the ones who started rhapsodizing about my favorite album, which in this case, is not a movie soundtrack!   Except, (she said grandiosely) you could say it's part of the "soundtrack" to my life, ha.

 

For an actual film soundtrack, hmm, am drawing a blank.  Oh, loved the Jerry Goldsmith original soundtrack to the haunting Seventies' neo-noir,  "Chinatown":

Without a doubt, mine would be the soundtrack of the Lion King.  

 

The song "Circle Of Life" has always touched me.  It describes the many phases of my life to a "T".
