Happy Monday dear, sweet readers, I hope this installment of Mixed Tape Monday finds you doing well or ,at the very least, reasonably well. I would hate to think that any of you are just completely sucking right now. I know that in the past I have made reference to music being a soundtrack to my life. So, I thought today, I would tackle the topic of movie soundtracks in a Mixed Tape Monday kind of way.
Today’s blog is not about the quality, or lack thereof, of the movie but about the songs on the soundtrack. Many a bad movie has had an awesome soundtrack or at least a great song or cover on the soundtrack.
