Soldier?

Soldier?

Hey there,
Has anyone seen 'Soldier' with Kurt Russell? (no you're not at the wrong site) it's a super-soldier-saves-stranded-survivours-in-space futuristic thingy, (in which Mr Russell's word count is less than 10!!!) but, I digress, half way through they have an Xmas party and what music is blaring out only Solas's 'Flowing Bowl' set, I jumped up to check my CD player with shock, Lorena McKennitt was in there too somewhere, my question is ... when did this music go from being ancient to futuristic?

Re: Soldier?

I saw the movie, but I never noticed the music! I have listened to a lot of Solas so I am surprised I missed it.
I guess these future people like to listen to "oldies" from the planet Earth or something.

ooo...I'll have to check that out now.
Actually, I also noticed in "Good Will Hunting" during a diner scene that Tommy Bhetty's Waltz from Altan's "The Red Crow" was playing--perked me right up during that movie ;-)
Any other movies where you've heard good tunage out of place?

And while it is not Irish trad, on S*x in the City when her beau proposed to Carrie, it was YoYo Ma, Edgar Myers and Mark O'Connor playing in the background, from one of their "Appalachian" albums.

The Chieftains won an Oscar for "Barry Lyndon". They did, honestly, no wind up, this is true, nothing snide about it.
