Falling Slowly

Somehow this song became part of my collection.  It's from a movie I've never seen called "Once" and is performed by Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova who also star in the film. 

"Falling Slowly" won an Oscar, for Best Original Song in 2007.  In my opinion, it's just as much of an honor to have your song featured on my blog since the Academy of Motion Pictures does such a lousy job of nominating songs for the award.  Just look at a list of songs that have won an Oscar and you'll see what I mean. 


Last year, they only nominated 2 mediocre songs for the award.  I say they just get rid of the award, or try a little bit harder.

I will shut up now and show you the music video for this song, which was playing in my head this morning.
