GraceGrace by Jeff Buckley
Buy new: £9.67 / Used from: £0.73
To my great shame, only discovered this recently. Real 'hairs on the back of neck' music - got to be listened to by candlelight with wine, in my humble opinion!!
Felt MountainFelt Mountain by Goldfrapp

The musical equivalent of being trapped in a dark fairy tale - if that makes sense?!

This film made me think for weeks after I'd watched it. So sad, hard to believe it's based on a true story - heartbreaking.

Melody A.M.Melody A.M. by Röyksopp

There isn't one duff track on this album - very filmic and a little bit seedy too! Like being trapped in a porn film, I would imagine..!!

Another one for the small, wee hours. 'Caramel' is divine.
