영화 <러브 액츄얼리> 를 재미있게 봤던 기억이 난다.
지금까지 크리스마스라고 하면 언제나 '나홀로 집에' 같은 분위기가 떠올랐었는데 (물론 실제로 그런 크리스마스 분위기를 느껴본 적은 없는 것 같지만..) 이제는 '러브액츄얼리' 가 생각난다.
비슷하면서도 뭔가 더 어른스러운 크리스마스의 분위기라고 해야 할까..
뭐 여튼, <러브 액츄얼리>는 영화도 영화지만 OST가 정말 좋았던 영화였다.
영화를 보고나서 몇년간 내 플레이리스트에서 빠진 적이 없을 정도로 가장 좋아하는 OST 앨범이다.
그 중에 특히 푹 빠졌던 건 Norah Jones의 'Turn me on'. 수천번은 들은 것 같다. 이 노래를 계기로 Norah Jones의 신보가 나올 때 마다 열심히 찾아 들었다.
워낙 끈적끈적한 (ㅋㅋㅋ) 분위기라 누구랑 같이 있을 때 듣기는 조금 애매한게 아쉽다.
기록차원에서 가장 좋아하는 4곡을 포스팅.
1. Turn Me On (Love Actually O.S.T.)
Like a flower waiting to bloom
Like a lightbulb in a dark room
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on
Like the desert waiting for the rain
Like a school kid waiting for the spring
Im just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on
My poor heart it's been so dark
Since you've been gone
After all you're the one who turns me off
You're the only one who can turn me back on
My hi-fi is waiting for a new tune
My glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes
I'm just sitting here waiting for you
To come on home and turn me on
Turn me on
2. Come Away With Me
Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song
Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies
I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come
Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you
And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me
3. Carry On
And after all's been said and done
Who said it best, were you the one?
Let's just forget, leave it behind
And carry on
If you should find the time to speak
Then speak to me, I'd never keep
You from your final destiny
So carry on
Into the quiet I am bound
What you have lost, I've never found
I lost my nerve, yet peace surrounds
So carry on
Into the quiet I am bound
What you have lost, I've never found
I lost my nerve, yet peace surrounds
So carry on
And now that all's been said and done
Who said it best, were you the one?
Let's just forget, leave it behind
And carry on
Let's just forget, leave it behind
And carry on
4. New York City
I can't remember what I planned tomorrow
I can't remember when it's time to go
When I look in the mirror
Tracing lines with a pencil
I remember what came before
I wanted to think there was endless love
Until I saw the light dim in your eyes
In the dead of the night I found out
Sometimes there's love that won't survive
New York City
Such a beautiful disease
New York City
Such a beautiful,
Such a beautiful disease
Laura kept all her disappointments
Locked up in a box behind her closet door
She pulled the blinds and listened to the thunder
With no way out from the family store
We all told her things could get better
When you just say goodbye
I'll lay awake one more night
Caught in a vision I want to deny
And did I mention the note that I found
Taped to my locked front door
It talked about no regrets
As it slipped from my hand to the scuffed tile floor
I rode the train for hours on end
And watched the people pass me by
It could be that it has no end
Just an action junkie's lullaby
New York City
We were full of the stuff that every dream rested
As if floating on a lumpy pillow sky
Caught up in the whole illusion
That dreams never pass us by
Came to a tattoed conclusion
That the big one was knocking on the door
What started as a mass delusion
Would take me far from the place I adore
New York City
