I did a whole series of some of my favorite uses of music in movies awhile back, and I am sure that I did at least three or four JUST on Wes Anderson movies...so sorry if this is redundant, but I just saw the Darjeeling Limited again last night and felt compelled to post.
Such a great movie with such a great, eclectic sounding soundtrack. The best song is of course Peter Sarstedt's 'Where Do You Go To My Lovely'...but in the obligatory Wes Anderson slow motion scene, The Kinks 'This Time Tomorrow' also fits perfectly. Here are the songs for you listening pleasure...long live Wes Anderson!

Seeking Adult Drunk Clown for 30th Birthday party
Date: 2008-08-26, 3:22PM EDT
We need an Adult Drunk Clown who is good at getting drunk and stupid. No need to do any clown tricks, just hang out and drink a shit load. We will be hopping around to different bars and want a clown to tag a long and drink heavely. He doesn't even need to socialize with anyone, just drink. the birthday is on Friday, Sept. 5th in Bucktown. Oh, did I mention that the clown needs to get shitfaced. Don't worry, we will purchase all the drinks.******
What do you think the # will be for the over/under number of fights the 'adult drunk clown' will get into over the course of this night of bar hopping? I will start the wagering at 7...

Another day, another relationship ending anthem. But it is Friday after all, so today's
pick is a kinder, gentler break up song. Forgoing the usual venom and bitterness that I love so much in a song like this, the Kinks' 'Days' is more of a fond look back at a relationship that didn't work out. A true gem.
Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
I'm thinking of the days,
I won't forget a single day, believe me.
I bless the light,
I bless the light that lights on you believe me.
And though you're gone,
You're with me every single day, believe me.
Days I'll remember all my life,
Days when you can't see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me,
But it's all right,
Now I'm not frightened of this world, believe me.
I wish today could be tomorrow,
The night is dark,
It just brings sorrow, let it wait.
Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
I'm thinking of the days,
I won't forget a single day, believe me.
Days I'll remember all my life,
Days when you can't see wrong from right.
You took my life,
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me,
But it's all right,
Now I'm not frightened of this world, believe me.
Days.
Thank you for the days,
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me.
I'm thinking of the days,
I won't forget a single day, believe me.
I bless the light,
I bless the light that shines on you believe me.
And though you're gone,
You're with me every single day, believe me.
