---------------Ever hear one of those songs that instantly makes you think? My answer to that is "Song for Bob" an airy, haunting song from the 2008 movie "The Assassination of Jesse James." If nothing else from the film, the soundtrack is all-together a mournful and beautiful obituary to outlaw Jesse James and the men who turned against him. The soundtrack composed by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis arrests the listener to a heavy-hearted symphony of strings and piano that makes funeral marches sound like pop songs.

Kelly Clarkson - The Trouble With Love Is
--------------Let me just declare for the whole world wide web to hear: If you dislike/hate/haven't seen the movie Love Actually, you have no pulse or haven't experienced absolute holiday happiness.
Not kidding, kids. The collection of stories about love can't help but warm your heart, especially when Sam squeals "Let's get the shit kicked out of us by love!"
Love is like a 2-battery component. Without both a positive and a negative side, it's not gonna work out. We're all familiar with the positives, but Clarkson emphasizes the agony and deception of it. A bold and disarmingly (favorite new adjective) pessimistic move for a pop diva, but Clarkson is going just far down enough with honesty and matter-of-factness. Get "The Trouble With Love Is" from the Love Actually Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.
**The clip below isn't today's song, but it's a damn adorable clip from the movie.

Mumm'ra - She's Got You High
------------------What would you do with 500 days of summer? Most of our lists include reaching the shores of our favorite beach, lazing around blissfully doing nothing, and even falling in love. Featured in this summer's most endearing romantic comedy, 500 Days of Summer, "She's Got You High" smiles with crashing percussion and angelic vocals from Mumm'ra, an English indie band that released their debut album, These Things Move in Trees. Find "She's Got You High" on Mumm'ra's debut or the 500 Days of Summer original soundtrack.
