I cannot get (500) Days out of my head.

My roomates and I spent the majority of our Saturday afternoon/night accumulating couch sores. Although the thought of staying in on a Saturday night does not sound appealing to most, I enjoy being boring and unproductive. After watching a few episodes of Felicity (Google this t.v. show!), we decided to watch(500) Days of Summer- again.

Every time I rewatch this movie I notice three things: 1. How increasingly annoying Zooey Deschanel's character acts. 2. Joseph Gordon- Levitt's charm. 3. That, for the most part, the music goes well with the movie.

The majority of the soundtrack is a great reflection of Tom's (Joesph Gordon-Levitt) emotional mindset. However, can someone tell me when Black Lips,"Bad Kids", played during the movie.

The tracks that grabbed my attention the most would have to be: The Smiths, "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out", Hall & Oates, "You Make My Dreams", and Carla Bruni, "Quelqu'un m'a dit".

Obviously, The Smiths must be included on the soundtrack because "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out", is central to their first real encounter. Also, if you are familiar with the song you get what kind of guy Tom is. Yes, in the beginning the narrator introduces Tom as a boy with a complete misreading of The Graduate and a fondness for sad, British pop songs. However, the fact that he likes The Smiths, more specifically, this song, foreshadows Tom's vulnerability.

Next up, Hall & Oates, "You Make My Dreams". Sidenote- Daryl Hall & John Oates remind me of Ted Danson and Tom Selleck circa Three Men and a Baby. Perhaps the only reason why the song caught my attention is because of the dance sequence. Anything involving an animated blue bird is bound to win me over.

Finally, Carla Bruni, "Quelqu'un m'a dit". Why do I love this song? Simply because it's pretty.
