The Singles soundtrack is possibly THE best soundtrack EVER, especially if you're into the grunge scene, firstly it has the best grunge bands on ever, and manages to bypass Nirvana which is an achievement in itself.

To say that I enjoyed Moulin Rouge the movie would be understatement. I was overwhelmed by Baz Luhrmann's amazing style of quick-edged cuts and maddening visuals, as well as his attempt to bring the musical genre back into the mainstream, albeit forcefully. The wonderful setting of Paris in the 1900s with can-can dancers in Montmatre, the bohemian absinthe drinkers, collided with a multitude of words, music, costumes and imagery left me almost breathless. The music in the movie is obviously incredibly important. It not only sets the tone for the movie, but enthralls the audience with Luhrmann's love for the inclusion of pop songs from U2 to Elton John and vision of guiding us into ...
