My feel-good song

Begin Again

I recently watched the new RomCom of the season called "Begin Again". Who knew Keira Knightley could sing right? But that's not the best part...Adam Levine. Yes, we are treated to a special performance of music and acting by him personally. Curse Keira for getting to kiss those lips attached to what People voted as the sexiest man alive in 2013. And Mark Ruffalo is an added bonus...although he is looking a bit worse for wear since 13 going on 30. But I guess that was the point for his character in the film.

It has been given a 7.8/10 on IMDb, but I would give it a 9. Movies these days have been shocking and finally someone has managed to compose an interesting story line.
IMDB describes it as "A chance encounter between a disgraced music-business executive and a young singer-songwriter new to Manhattan turns into a promising collaboration between the two talents."
What they should have said was: "Adam Levine stars in it." Does anyone really need any other form of persuasion?

Although, Keira's voice was not pristine, the songs she sang, were. I still loved her voice though. So I thought seeing as Keira can sing these songs, maybe I should give them a try. I decided to do a raw copy like she does for her album. I couldn't find a suitable alley or subway station to record my masterpiece in... so I settled with my extremely lacking-of-great-acoustics, tiled room where I had squawking Hadedas and potatoes boiling in the background (The hadedas weren't squawking because they were boiling with the potatoes...)

The song is called "A step you can't take back".
