SOUNDTRACK is your one hour red carpet ride to the marvellous music of movies and television. Will give you the inside scoop on the songs, and feature the films and TV productions in which they were played – we’ll also where we can share the background on the songwriters, composers, producers, directors and music supervisors attached to the tunes and of course we’ll enjoy the songs themselves. Now, as you might imagine with hundreds of thousands of TV shows and movies made over the years the scope for SOUNDTRACK is massive – so we’ll give each episode an area of focus and shine the spotlight on that. Today we’re featuring those tunes that tug at your heartstrings. Songs that were so well placed you most likely welled up or even broke down completely – you know the kind you hear at that pivotal plot point, over over the moving montage or at the tragic end – we’ve got all of it – some were classic covers, others written specifically for the picture, some are title tracks, some of them live on long after the film has been forgotten but all of them serve to set the viewer on a very very emotional ride.
