Skeleton key.

Porch swing.

Are you my baby 12".

I think it was december.

2 Trip is 2 fall.

Fruit at the bottom.

Bring you back.

The life.

Sweet suite.

Crack in the pavement.

...they've got lots of tunes I love & have been soundtracks 2 my life, so it's hard 2 pick 10, & putting them in order is even trickier.

Ask me another day & I might have a different list. smile

Honourable shoutout 2 'Lover' & 'The Vigil' frm fDeluxe's album.

I meant 'Always In My Dreams'..doh! Got it mixed up with the P track. I wonder if it's title actually came to mind, even subliminally, after they'd worked on 'All My Dreams'?

I totally agree Matt - their quality control has been way better than Prince's. Less is more, and these ladies have proven it..so much good music. I don't think many people would have reckoned this rich body of material would have come from them as they watched Purple Rain.

Seems like they're going back into scoring with the Heroes Reboot though, so may be a while before we hear anything else from them..I was kind of hoping for some more releases akin to the Snapshots EP but sadly nothing doing..
