Rach, ...Oooh - thanks so much for all these, girls! Rach, I love the Scottishness of the original, and the words are just fabby and brutal, but I must shamefully admit I do rather like Whiny Matt's whiny version. <br /><br />Kristy, you're a musical goddess - thank you hugely for your list. I'm a long time fan of Massive Attack, Bat for Lashes, Nick Drake and The Cure - all of whom have appeared on playlists before, but the rest are new to me. I'm going to try them all out as I settle into the book.<br /><br />Sally, I'm always so glad when other people say they need music too - it's a bit Marmite, and lots of writers can't bear the thought of listening to anything while they're trying to work. Thanks for your suggestions - Sheryl Crowe has actually made it onto 2 previous lists (with 'Always on your Side, with Sting, and 'Tomorrow Never Dies', which is perfect for any seduction scene!) <br /><br />Joanna, you must have read my mind as Dido (Here With Me) was the only song I had for this book and I listened to Eminem/Rihanna a lot when I was writing the last one. I've also used KT Tunstall previously (for Orlando and Rachel), so with that kind of success rate I'll definitely check out your other recommendations!<br /><br />Ellie, I'm hearing lots of great things about that Adele album. Thanks for the suggestion - I feel an itunes purchase coming on...<br /><br />I did manage to find a song that I really love and which is perfect for the early stages of the book (which sadly, I'm still writing) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGk7VqILFu4 I'm now off to work my way through all of these!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072783485818273641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045808112442355708.post-47731398305001810722011-01-18T15:20:50.640+00:002011-01-18T15:20:50.640+00:00I find the words and music of Adele inspiring and ...I find the words and music of Adele inspiring and moving... xEllie Swoophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18258957397794868525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045808112442355708.post-91491333226794131152011-01-15T04:19:49.024+00:002011-01-15T04:19:49.024+00:00I can only tell you musicians to check out

It helps me lose myself in another world.<br /><br />Some of my faves:<br /><br /><br />‘Paradise Circus’ by Massive Attack - sensual, seductive urban cool<br /><br />‘Lived in Bars’ by Cat Power - love the melody and her gravelly voice<br /><br />‘Daniel’ and ‘Moon and Moon’ by Bat for Lashes - I’m in love with the melodies and some of the lyrics are knock-out. i.e. “You took me to the darkest place you knew and set fire to my heart”.<br /><br />‘You Look So Fine’ by Garbage - “You look so fine, I want to break your heart and give you mine, you’re taking me over...” Nuff said.<br /><br />‘Fisherman’s Woman’ by Emiliana Torrini - beautiful lyrics, full of longing and passion. I love pretty much everything she’s done. <br /><br />‘Northern Sky’ by Nick Drake - Soulful<br /><br />‘Wild Tigers I Have Known’ by Emily Jane White - the song of the Alpha Male<br /><br />‘Love Song’ by The Cure - makes me cry<br /><br />x KristyKristy Pricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01002525577500621085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045808112442355708.post-54730362069267164502011-01-14T13:13:38.413+00:002011-01-14T13:13:38.413+00:00Biffy Clyrois a must:
