What song is stuck in your head (or on permanent rotation in your CD or MP3 player) these days? Why does it speak to you?
Run Boy Run
I just can not stop playing it. When I’m in the gym I find it helps to imagine it’s the soundtrack to my film life – yes my film life, where I am a serious awesome fighter chick, a cross between Jason Bourne and Michonne from The Walking Dead. Whatever I’m a Cancerian, apparently we live in the clouds – imagine my shock when Mindy Kaling more or less said the same thing:
This song – It’s a beautiful and powerful composition that has me thinking of a great vast lands like those in Narnia, Lord of the Rings, Neverending Story and the Assassins Creed game advert (yep, I went there), and in every listen I end up on a handsome horse, at the top of a mountain brandishing a sword.
I think it was my lot in life to be a warrior princess and for whatever reason, that just didn’t happen. So this just helps me get there instead.
I wrote more about WoodKid here.

Good tune, do you know that woodkid actually did the theme for assassins creed game? – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMsbMK9Odoc
I know this track was used for the games advert, not that it was made for the game though! ha – something new…
ahhh it may have just been the advert, my son has the game itself Ill have to ask him if it is actually in it
