BRAIN’S CHOICE

As explained, this is my own Brain’s Choice of Music to Make Writing To, otherwise known as The Final Cut of Musicality Infecting the Sophia Brain

The Pixies 'Where is My Mind' Album Poster

I wrote an epic screenplay based on these songs:

The Libertine – Patrick Wolf
Couches in Alleys – Styrofoam
Holy Dread! – Clint Mansell (The Fountain Soundtrack)
Oh What a World – Rufus Wainwright
Rada & Govindas (Album) – Rada & Govindas
Avril 14th – Aphex Twin
John Lennon – Citizen Cope

Edited said screenplay/ treatment to this:

Birth (Soundtrack) – Alexandre Desplat
Dark Side of the Moon (Album) – Pink Floyd
Echoes (The Best of Pink Floyd) – Pink Floyd
D.A.R.L.I.N.G – Beach House
Racing Like a Pro – The National
Awe – Citizen Cope

Edited my book, The Beginning of an Inexplicable Journey to this:

Momma – Alex Ebert
Carries On – Alex Ebert
Home – Alex Ebert & Jade
40 Days Dream – Alex Ebert & Jade
Rock my Boat – Mia Doi Todd

Wrote Prince Henri & the majority of extraterrestrial material to this:

Silent Night (Album) – Cantillation (ABC)
Radio Ballet – Elysium
Window – The Album Leaf
I Wish I Was the Moon – Neko Case
Things That Scare Me – Neko Case
Deep Red Bells – Neko Case
As Though The Angels Walked on Earth – Popol Vuh
A Tear For Eddie – Ween

Then when I have a break I listen to this… mash of bliss.

Promises – Def Leppard
Happiness is a Warm Gun – The Beatles
Where Do You Go to (My Lovely) – Peter Sarstedt
Summer Rain – Belinda Carlisle
Pass You By – Gillian Welch
Stamping Ground – Moondog With Orchestra
Hong Kong – Gorillaz
Baby Come Back – Daryl Hall & John Oates
Veridis Quo (Love Theme) – Daft Punk
Distance & Time (Album) – Fink
I Love You – The Bees
Shore Leave – Tom Waits
Always Want (What I Can’t Have) – Grace Woodroofe
La Vie En Rose – Grace Jones

That’s a peek into my brain electricity. Feel free to add what makes you tick tock tick tock…  I’m going back to clocking words on paper, and listening to this lady.
