In 2003, I stepped away from Film Making, and started to work on Screenplays
In 2004 I started writing a sequel to a kinda B-ish Cult film called, ‘HACKERS’
I realize it’s not a great film, but the Cinematography, Acting of the Lead, Quirkiness of the other Hackers, the Mystique/Coolness of the Hacker Persona, and especially the music grabbed me
As I wrote the sequel (Only ever wrote a 50 page First Draft), I wrote down songs I thought would be good in certain scenes
Here they are;
Couldn’t find the next song, maybe I had the wrong name, so I included a song by the same artist below
Last Song would either be one below, or one below that
Amy Says It’s Time to Chill… And Amy’s Never Wrong
Found this First Band a While Back… Just Came across them again when I was Downloading some Files off a Disc that Had All My Files from one of my Older Computers… Downloaded all kinds of Music I had on there
Writings On the Wall – The Album Leaf
Found My Romeo and Juliet Soundtrack…
Kissing You – Des’ree
This one next one has been on one or two of my recent posts, but I don’t care, it’s a Great Song, lol
The Unforgettable Fire – U2
Found this one next one on my old computer File, it was a Playlist I dedicated to my Brother… Had a bunch of 80’s Music on it, so all you “Hard Cores” you can skip it if you want, lol
Do You Really Want To Hurt Me – Culture Club
Man did I used to Love this Next Song…
Faint – Linkin Park
Man if you never saw the Michael Mann Movie Miami Vice… See it… This next song isn’t the Original, but it’s still good… Don’t Let The Occasional Screetching Guitar Bug yah, the rest of it pretty good
In The Air Tonight – Nonpoint
Used to love this song too, way back from the 80’s, lol… When Music that wasn’t Plastic, was pretty hard to find, lol The Fixx Succeeded in that
One Look Up – The Fixx
What Can I say… I like Trance, but I think you’ll like this one anyway… She has a Sweet Voice… Eh, I Really Like 4 Strings
Let It Rain – 4 Strings
Back to Romeo and Juliet… Gotta Love Garbage
#1 Crush – Garbage
This One’s Dedicated to Pete, who Reminded me of This Next Song on one of his Play Lists a bit back… I had heard it before, but had forgotten about it… I’m glad I’ve got it now
Touched – V.A.S.T.
I Thought We’d End on a Fairly Dramatic Note… Love This Next Piece
I came across this Site today… Actually, it was someone who had Clicked “Like” on one of my Poems I believe.
Ironically, they also used the Same Theme as This Blog… Which I hadn’t seen anywhere else so far.
They were a Poet who had a Music Player on Their Site, which started to play some lovely music as you entered the Site… And so I started thinking.
I actually have some “Optional” Music on my One Knight Site, but I’ve never had any here… Especially Music that starts as you enter the Site… Partly because I use Music and Videos on some of my Posts, but also because, each Written Piece has its Own Feeling Etc., and thus the music that comes on may not “Fit”.
However, I was so impressed with this Poet’s Choice of Music, that I realized, I really do want to continue to share my Musical Tastes with my Readers, as Music is truly the way to my Soul… And thus, “To Know Me… Is to Know My Playlist“.
Granted, I have already Written Several Pieces which include Music that I like, but this shall be my First Actual Playlist, with More to Follow. I shall Introduce you to My Playlist on this Post, but it will also be “Playable” on the New Music Player I’ve added to the Right under some of my Other Widgets, and/or Menus.
Also if you’d like access to this First Playlist, you can Simply Click This DarkJade Playlist

Song 9 – Tchaikovsky – Sleeping Beauty – Forgive the French Speaking Animation in this, lol
Song 10 – Puccini – Nessun Dorma(Pavarotti, NY 1980) –Only one of the Greatest Songs of all time, Written by one of my Favorite Composers of all time, Puccini… Sung by none other than Pavarotti
Song 11 – Orbital (Halcyon and On and On) – I’ve often said if you want to know what my Soul Sounds like, than Listen to this Song… The way this Song “Sounds”, is how I “Feel” about Love, Life, Thought, and Emotion in General
Song 12 – The Black Eyed Peas (with Slash and Usher) – Put this one in for fun… I definitely have a soft spot for Pop, can’t take life seriously all the time, lol Or yourself for that matter

Something I find Quite Useful as a Writer, as the Subconscious is where so much of the Good Stuff comes from
Song 16 – Clubbed to Death
Song 17 – The Missing Track – This one didn’t work for some reason, maybe I’ll throw it on my List next time
