Tuning Out
with "The City of Angels" soundtrack. Here are few videos:
Goo Goo Dolls' ever green, straight shootin', gut wrenchin' ballad Iris Sarah McLachlan performing Angel live U2's If God Will Send His Angels Peter Gabriel's I Grieve The soothing background score
Finally, this chap has uploaded about all (?) of this movie as ten minute long segments, as that is what YouTube allows. Yes, sometimes pure sappy-wappy music is what these ears ask to hear.

A Night Poem
for Ai
A man and a woman engage In conversation, and the woman Keeps saying that she wants to
Take residence in Dante’s inferno Right now, for living has become A scalding hell where everyone Keeps demanding their own suck Of her marrow, a grim summa Of love, or what passes for love.
Her sad eyes become sadder still As they come to rest at the base Of his bent spine with his separate Pain that remains untouched by Hers’ as she leans towards him Across the unscaled space that he Prays for his hands and mouth
To breach, for sometimes nothing, Nothing can console as a blanket Of different skin covering the body All through the night, joined like Two adjacent longitudes over which The innocent sky spins and spins.

Flame Out
with John McLaughlin & Paco de Lucia playing an acoustic version of "Lotus Feet". And in this they are joined by Larry Coryell, and blast through "A Meeting of The Spirits", two great Mahavishnu Orchestra tracks. You may also follow a previous music post on John and The Mahavishnu Orchestra.
By the way, the original track of "A Meeting of Spirits" from the album "Inner Mounting Flame", for me personally embodies a real life meeting some six summers ago that I consider one of the high points of this sufficient life. And after such a meeting how does meeting again or not, in this life or the next matter?
