Kiss Kiss Bang Bang Soundtrack Squee
So I've just watched Torchwood 2x01 in a fangirl chat, and I should really go to bed, because I think my brain has turned itself off a couple of hours ago already (I'm entirely relying on the Firefox spell check here; if I didn't have that, this would be riddled with typos, gah), BUT THERE IS ONE THING I WANTED TO SAY BEFORE I GO. (Also, I just realized it's 5am and this is my third post today. SORRY, F-LIST! I HAVE A LOT OF THINGS TO SAY! TRUFAX!)
I so, so love so damn much that Captain John has a variation of the accompaniment tune of House of the Rising Sun as his "theme music". Listen to the soundtrack of his first scene and tell me that is not a slightly rewritten version of House of the Rising Sun. It fits so well, because he has this whole Western thing going, and, yeah, I admit, HotRS is a corny country song, but the guitar tune sounds mysterious and sly and very badass Western bandit like.
And they use it again, a slowed down version, in the scene when John tries to convince Jack to join him - on the roof shortly before he kills him. I get so excited about this, I can't even really enjoy the scenes.
Here's a YouTube clip with the song played by The Animals.
