Iris, if you were a melody... I used only the good notes.

"I love scores."
"They remind me of Jack Black."
"I know, that's why I love them."

Miles: Now let me ask you. Have you seen this?
Iris: Chariots of Fire. Loved it.
Miles: [doing an impression of the soundtrack] Such a great score by Vangelis. He took electronic scores to a new level. It was groundbreaking. I'm gonna test you on this later. Okay. Driving Miss Daisy. Hans. Very unexpected. Do you remember how great it was?
[doing impression of soundtrack]
Miles: Sassy! Love it. Is this a bad game?
Iris: No.
Miles: Okay.
Iris: Keep going.
Miles: Sometimes I get self-conscious about my...
[interrupts himself by singing Gone with the Wind soundtrack]
Miles: [singing] Are you embarrassed by this game I've started to play?
[Stopped singing]
Miles: Okay. It's not a library. I can go loud.
[grabs Jaws]
Miles: BA-BAM! Two notes and you've got a villain. I don't know what to say about it. Totally brill.
[the graduate. Singing soundtrack]
Miles: I bet you didn't know that was all written for the movie. It was a score. Technically.
Iris: I did know that one.
Miles: Oh my God. Okay, this one? You have to check this out some time. The Mission. The score is genius. It just comes from a totally different place. It's like... I can't even... Just promise me you'll rent it and listen to it.
Iris: Renting.
Miles: Thank you. It changed my world.

What Dreams May Come



"Travel here is just like anything else, it's in your mind."

"A whole human life is just a heartbeat here in Heaven. Then we'll all be together forever."

"What's true in our minds is true, whether some people know it or not."

"Thought is real. Physical is the illusion. Ironic, huh?"

The Amazing Magnetic Toy You REALLY Can't Put Down!

Destiny?


"This is not likely to be a lighthearted or short-lived romance or a one-night stand. Instead, this will probably turn out to be that scarring, painful relationship each loathes to ever talk about because it hurts so much, or it will turn out to be the love of their life. Either way, the connection is too strong for either to resist the gamble."

"There is no life without love, none worth having anyway."



New York. You rent a little apartment in this small little neighborhood. You go grocery shopping on your free time. When you’re not at home painting or drawing sketches for work, you take a walk and sit on a park bench to read your book. You put your book away for a moment and just take in all that’s around you. Some weirdo lady in a bikini tanning, a mom with her little son, she’s pushing him on a swing, a brother and sister running around. And then a beautiful man just walks by. You look up at him in hope to see if you'll catch his eye but he doesn’t, he just walks straight by… You go back to reading your book. A couple of minutes pass by and you see him again, except this time he’s walking straight towards you. Your heart starts beating, the adrenaline rushing, all theses questions running through your mind. Why is he coming here? Do I look alright? He stops and he says, "Sorry if I’m bothering you but I thought you should know that I think there is something incredibly special about you that can’t be put into words. I’m so intrigued.” You’re speechless. You don’t know what to say, but you start blushing and you just smile. You don’t say anything but you introduce yourself. You end up spending the rest of the afternoon just sitting on the same park bench talking and getting to know one another.

Do we associate music with life? Does life have this natural rhythm that we just experience going through something, thinking, looking, reminiscing back to certain memories. Is the music always, naturally there and then that is how it is created? Artists have the ability to take an experience and turn it into something, they tell a story through music and the sound takes us there.
Or do we associate life with music? The song is already written, the music is there, and then we choose to take a certain experience we experienced and make the link.

Scar Tissue



"... caught a glimpse of a small, dark-haired angel wearing white-fringed Indian moccasins."

"... a new form of social expression called Love-Ins... stringing love beads and dancing."

"I knew that there was this magic out there in the world."
