Eres Tú - (Remasterizado)
Mocedades
My sister owned the Tommy Boy soundtrack and I would regularly swipe the CD just to listen to this song. Well, that and the track of Chris Farley singing “Fat Guy in Little Coat.”
“A halfhearted priest secretly teaching Marxism to Pinochet so the demon general might better know his enemy? Latin American letters (wherever it may reside) has never had a greater, more disturbing avenging angel than Bolaño.”

Stay (Faraway, So Close!)
Craig Armstrong
(This version of U2’s ”Stay (Faraway, So Close!)” is a live recording of Bono’s vocals + Craig Armstrong’s orchestration and it’s very good and you should know who Craig Armstrong is because he composed the score to Love Actually.)
