Soundtrack Pick : About Time (2013)

Posted on the 14 November 2013 by Ikzidna @InspiredGround

Hey, readers. How’s your week so far? Mine is wet, I mean really wet, as it’s been raining a lot here in my city (I wish as happy as Rachel McAdams and Domhnall Gleeson in the picture). But aside from that, the movie About Time (2013) have been a pleasant experience until now, because I am loving the soundtrack and currently hearing it over and over again. Composed by Nick Laird-Clowes, this Richard Curtis movie was filled with mostly elegant and seem-to-be timeless romantic tracks like How Long Will I Love You (Jon Boden, Sam Sweeney & Ben Coleman and Ellie Goulding), When I Fall in Love (Barbar Gough) and some of his own composed songs for the movie theme. My favorite is 2002 single collaboration of Ron Sexsmith with Chris Martin (Coldplay), Gold in Them Hills.

The album isn’t exactly filled with new released tracks, as some of it featured in the movie as the time benchmark for the movie’s time-travel theme. The songs performed mostly by UK musicians and singers, like Amy Winehouse, Sugababes, and The Cure. Furthermore, check out some of them here :
