This review has drained me to write, but in a good way.
Listen to ‘The Banquet’ and tell me your heart is not now touching the ceiling. I will grudgingly acknowledge that this album is pretty formulaic with its highs and lows, but that detracts nothing from the music. Amélie (also known as Le Fabuleux Destin dAmélie Poulain French pronunciation: l fabylø dest dameli pul English: The Fabulous Destiny of Amélie Poulain) is a 2001 French-language romantic comedy film directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet. If Amélie the film is even half as good as its soundtrack, then it’s a pretty brilliant film. ‘Comptine d'un autre été : L'après-midi’ – Besides hearing one of the best pieces of piano in recent memory, you can also hear my heart melting on this track. I’d attempt to pick apart the instrumentation, which is built up of lovingly layered different things, but I can’t be bothered. ‘A Quai’ – An upbeat piece of music, this puts an image in my mind of running through Paris at night (joyfully, of course). It’s not a wretched, depressed kind of sadness though – this is majestic and noble sadness. ‘Sur Le Fil’ – A beautiful piano piece, drenched in melancholy. Just after the 1:30 mark, some simple percussion starts, and then everything blows up into rainbows.
‘La Valse d’Amelie’ – Tiersen’s soulful, rich accordion takes us on a ride, accompanied by little else except some tinkly noises. I’m just going to pick out some of the ones I love most: I’m not going to do a track-by-track, because honestly if you gave me any song off Amélie I’d put my feet up and sigh warmly. Anything negative that can be heard here, has been lost in my overwhelming love for this thing. I think, quite frankly, it’s one of the best things I’ve ever had the honour to listen to. Here goes the disclaimer – I am ferociously biased in favour of this music. Thanks to Monsieur Tiersen, I believe that gold has been struck. Mainly because of the mood a good soundtrack can create. At the time I first listened to Amélie, I was going through a lot of soundtracks. When I picked up the soundtrack for a proper listen, I had not seen the film (I have yet to rectify this).

I hadn’t given it a full listen though, definitely not the one it deserved. What a city Paris is!Īt the time, I believe I was vaguely familiar with the soundtrack to Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain. Besides that, the little peculiarities of the place – the small markets selling second hand books, the buskers, and yes the beggars as well. And not just the usual suspects – the Tour Eiffel, the Arc de Triomphe, the Notre Dame Cathedral. Just writing this brings back a flood of memories, mostly romanticized perhaps, but very vivid indeed. I’m thrilled to say that I’ve been to Paris before.
