| I just love the mix of orchestra with the vocals...gives the song real power and adds the chill factor (I say that a lot though). I've never seen cruel intentions, but I'd assume it would fit well for the ending. I'll hafta rent it soon. | |

| Comments on Comments: 1) What Stones song? I guess it's not on my I-was-born-in-the-70's "Best Of" CD... 2) Cruel Intentions is awesome, and no, I'm not a teenager, but the things that happened in the movie do remind me of those years, right down to the "society girls with coke habit" stuff-- a timeless teen movie, like "The Breakfast Club" 3) The pt of living is to do stuff that DOES help your life, so it won't be such hell... I mean, if you're not planning on killing yourself anytime soon, there IS a point.. Comments on the song: Another great song for when "I need to hear some sounds that recognise the pain in me, yeah...." For similiar depression fixes, I highly recommend "I want the one I can't have" for unrequited-love-depression, and and "Asleep" for the "I want to go to sleep and never wake up" brand, both by The Smiths. | |
