The soundtrack features many Indian musicians like Aashish Khan, Shivkumar Sharma, Shankar Ghosh, and Mahapurush Misra, It also features The Remo Four, Eric Clapton, and Ringo Starr.Ironically, the Oasis song that shares the same name helped renew interest in the film even though the song "Wonderwall" does not sound anything like the music that Harrison created for Wonderwall.For more information on Kula Shaker:LinkTreeInstagramCharge of the Light Brigade (video)Broke as Folk (video)Soundtrack Your Life SocialsBlueskyInstagramWriting SiteYouTubePatreonSoundtrack Your Life SocialsBlueskyInstagramWriting SiteYouTubePatreon Learn more about your ad choices.

The SYL music composer, Phil Bertulfo and comic writer / horror expert-in-residence, J.M. Brandt, return to talk about Wes Craven’s 1997 slasher film, Scream 2. Why are we covering Scream 2 opposed to the original, you might ask? The soundtrack of course! This soundtrack ranges from D’Angelo covering Prince to The Foo Fighters to… the Kottonmouth Kings? We chat about this diverse and uneven soundtrack as well as how it compares to the other installments in the franchise and we discuss how much Jamie Kennedy is the appropriate amount of Jamie Kennedy in a movie.We would love it if you would join our Patreon membership, where you will get quarterly bonus episodes, early access to our regular episodes, and much moreThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacySpotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Soundtrack Your Life SocialsBlueskyInstagramWriting SiteYouTubePatreon Learn more about your ad choices.

Brandice is back to talk about the 1996 Joe Pytka film, Space Jam, and the blockbuster soundtrack that accompanied the film. We manage to spend our time talking about everything from The Quad City DJs "Space Jam" theme to Bugs Bunny's "Buggin", while avoiding talking about that one song by that one very problematic artist. We also discuss how some of the artists featured on the soundtrack had major soundtrack hits the year before (Coolio, Seal), and how stacked the soundtrack was with big name artists.We also chat about composer James Newton Howard, who scored Space Jam right after being nominated for an Oscar for his score for The Fugitive. From there, we take a stab about why Joe Pytka stopped making feature films after Space Jam, and we talk about a forgotten Saturday morning cartoon featuring a crime fighting Michael Jordan (along with Bo Jackson and Wayne Gretzky).We would love it if you would join our Patreon membership, where you will get quarterly bonus episodes, early access to our regular episodes, and much moreThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacySpotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Soundtrack Your Life SocialsBlueskyInstagramWriting SiteYouTubePatreon Learn more about your ad choices.

This week we welcome Robert and Steven Sklansky, brothers, and co-hosts of The Simpsons Did It Podcast, to talk about the 1997 soundtrack, Songs in the Key of Springfield, which is the first official Simpsons soundtrack. We chat about all kinds of music from the show, from Danny Elfman's iconic Simpsons theme to the recent Morrisey parody episode, and everything in between. We discuss some of our favorite musical guests, some musical guests we hope cameo on the show one day, and all the different classical musical references that pop up in the "golden age" of The Simpsons.

We talk about the 1985 Dan O'Bannon horror comedy, The Return of the Living Dead and its very punk, but sometimes not punk soundtrack, which features artists such as The Cramps, TSOL, Roky Erikson, and SSQ. We also chat about how the music fits within the film, Dan O'Bannon's underrated screenwriting career, and how the movie takes places on JM Brandt's and my birthday, which also happens to be shared by a very famous celebrity.

Brandice Wilson and Nicole Barlow are back to talk about the soundtrack to the Stephen Frears film, High Fidelity (2000), and they debate whether the film really qualifies as a romantic comedy or not. We break down the soundtrack and whether all of it works or whether some of the songs are too on the nose even if you look at the soundtrack as a mixtape for the movie. For a film set in Chicago, they question why there weren't more references to the Chicago indie scene since the original setting of High Fidelity (the book) is in London. They give props to the soundtrack supervisor of the film, Kathy Nelson, and how she was able to help get the film made. Somehow, they also get on the subject of thruples, bangs, and Tim Robbins' wig.We would love it if you would join our Patreon membership, where you will get quarterly bonus episodes, early access to our regular episodes, and much moreThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacySpotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Soundtrack Your Life SocialsBlueskyInstagramWriting SiteYouTubePatreon Learn more about your ad choices.

Austin, from the podcast, I Hate Your Taste In Movies, joins Ryan Pak to talk about the soundtrack to 1982 John Huston musical, Annie, which boasted hit songs such as "Tomorrow" and "A Hard Knock Life" as well as a loaded cast including Albert Finney, Carol Burnett, Bernadette Peters, and Tim Curry. We talk about the negative critical reception that film initially received, including a Golden Raspberry nomination for star Aileen Quinn as worst actress.We touch on many of the different iterations of Annie over the years, including the Broadway musical that preceded the film, and we trace Jay-Z's sample of "A Hard Knock Life" to his role as a producer of the 2014 version of Annie. Austin talks about how the 1999 film seemed to be the version of choice amongst her peers in school and I share about an educational film I watched in school starring Aileen Quinn.We would love it if you would join our Patreon membership, where you will get quarterly bonus episodes, early access to our regular episodes, and much moreThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacySpotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Soundtrack Your Life SocialsBlueskyInstagramWriting SiteYouTubePatreon Learn more about your ad choices.
