3 minutes and 1 second of pure soundtrack tragic beauty, oh the drama of it all.
When I was quite young, my neighbor and now friend/hair stylist, Pat, asked one day why I was so melancholy.....a word he must have learned from Sleeping Beauty, no doubt.
I ask the same question every now and again. When I find myself in that contemplative sadness, I get lost into music. 'Combe Magna' is it tonight! (as is 'To Die for Love,' same soundtrack) There are other great ones, but there's something about Marianne up on the hill, drenched in rain and sadness quoting Sonnet 116 that takes my heart.
