Minha canção cinematográfica favorita nos últimos anos

Posso ter problemas com Magnolia (1999), mas adoro a trilha do filme de Paul Thomas Anderson. Eu escuto esse CD (lembra disso?) há quase 10 anos. Save Me, a faixa nº 9, é a minha canção favorita feita para o cinema nos últimos 10, ops, ainda não, nove anos. A voz e a entrega de Aimee Mann tornam essa uma das músicas mais tristes, extremamente e sinceramente dolorosas da história do cinema.

You look like a perfect fit
For a girl in need of a tourniquet

But can you save me?
Why don’t you save me?
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

‘Cause I can tell
You know what it’s like
The long farewell of the hunger strike

But can you save me?
Come on and save me?
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
You struck me dumb like radium
Like Peter Pan or Superman
You will come to save me
Why don’t you save me?
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
But the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

C’mon and save me
Why don’t you save me?
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks who could never love anyone
