It took me awhile to figure out how to celebrate Week One Hundred, and then I thought that since I started my blog with She & Him and a video promo for the film, (500) Days of Summer, I would talk about the phenomenal soundtrack for this film, which happens to be one of my top ten all-time favorite movies ever!!!
--o0o--o0o--o0o--o0o--o0o--o0o--o0o--o0o--
This song is played during one of the sweetest, most touching, most hopeful scenes in the film. The camera work during the scene is also quite lovely, in regard to how it captures the sun hitting their faces while on the train ride to Millie's wedding --- don't worry, I'm not giving anything away here!
If you ever get around to watching this film, check out the way that Tom looks at Summer when she walks up in her wedding attire... again, it is such phenomenal acting on the part of Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Then when you throw this song into the background, it is almost too much to handle --- if you are as much of a hopeless romantic as I am, that is, but shhhhhhh.... don't tell anyone!!!
Sweet disposition
Never too soon
Oh, reckless abandon
Like no one's watching you
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
A kiss
A cry
Our rights
Our wrongs
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
So stay there
'Cause I'll be coming over
While our blood's still young
It's so young, it runs
Won't stop 'til it's over
Won't stop to surrender
Songs of desperation
I played them for you
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
A kiss
A cry
Our rights
Our wrongs
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
Stay there
'Cause I'll be coming over
While our blood's still young
It's so young, it runs
Won't stop 'til it's over
Won't stop to surrender
Won't stop 'til it's over
Won't stop 'til it's over
Won't stop 'til it's over
Won't stop to surrender
[repeating over the next verse 'til the end:]
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
A kiss
A cry
Our rights
Our wrongs
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
A moment of love
A dream
A laugh
Won't stop 'til it's over
Won't stop 'til it's over
Won't stop 'til it's over
Won't stop to surrender
