Listen to Your Heart - Kent Moran

"Music's a powerful thing. A song can change your mood. Make a memory. One song can change your whole life."  Such a true statement from the movie.  Music can resonate so many emotions that you're feeling.  I originally saw this movie on the Lifetime channel. (Definitely not a channel that I normally watch)  The music captivated me from the start.  Kent Moran starred as Danny in the movie and also composed the soundtrack and score.

The movie touches upon a variety of things.  Danny buys a paper everyday from a guy on a street corner yet he doesn't read the paper and ends up throwing it away at the end of the day.  His reason?  He likes the guy that sells them.  No one likes buying a paper from someone like him, they'd rather buy it at a store... at the end of the day it's the same paper.  It's the little things that a person does that can have a profound affect on others.

There are 23 tracks on the album.  The first seven tracks are vocal music while the remaining 16 tracks is score.  The score is comprised mainly of piano and strings.  Many of the tracks are short which is somewhat of a tease as it makes you wanting more.  The feel of the score to me feels like you're reminiscing.  I would have never came across Kent Moran had I not seen the movie.  Glad I didn't change the channel that day.

Favorite: Track #09 - Café Dinner
