Falling Slowly-From the Film Once



I told you I would post something from the brilliant movie Once. This is not only an amazing song, but an amazing moment captured on film!

Once

I saw the movie Once last night and found it to be touchingly, tenderly brilliant! It stars the singer Glen Hansard from the excellent Irish band the Frames and Markéta Irglová plays his love interest...?, muse? Both are actually musicians rather than actors and this adds to the very realistic approach of the movie. I liked the music so well, (It's really what makes this film so wonderful) that I want to go out and buy the soundtrack! Musically, it's raw and powerful! Look forward to me posting some clips from the film and music from the Frames. Mr. Hansard belts out his songs in this film so passionately at times you think he might explode with emotion! I suspect he is a tremendous live performer. He is a busker of the first order! I highly recommend the movie, but be forewarned, the F-word is pervasive.
