Here are some customer reviews of
Lost In Translation
: I am yet another Kevin Shields groupie. Unfortunately, this CD is disappointing. I was expecting a lot more based on Kevin Shields' recent work with Primal Scream, but his songs here are boring and uninspired. yawn.
"More Than This" is actually 11-12 minutes into the last track, Just Like Honey. Great cd!
Sure, the film is wonderful and the music is a perfect compliment to the story but the real reason you should buy this is for the exclusive Kevin Shields material. He hasn't done a thing since his My Bloody Valentine days (save for some excellent production work for Primal Scream) and it's fairly exciting to see him letting his music be heard for once. Buy the soundtrack for the great tracks by Squarepusher, Jesus And Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine and Death In Vegas. Cherish it for the rare-as-hens-teeth music from Kevin Shields.
I love this movie and the soundtrack but this is an answer to a lounge bar question. The song the two men are performing in the bar late in the film is "So Into You" by the Atlanta Rhythm Section, a late seventies AM radio gem!
A perfect companion set to the images of the film. It captures the mood in a way that most soundtracks don't. It is lush, calming, and heartachingly felt. Definitely a must have in terms of how soundtracks go these days, this one is indispensible.
