"And I'll see you, and you'll see me, and I'll see you in the branches that blow."

Somehow manages to be even better than the original, in that it is not only a great soundtrack but also a great album.

Great 90s chart with 20 in common with mine. Good to see REM's Automatic at number one. One of my very favourite 90s albums. Brings back good memories. And good to see Slint and plenty of Radiohead. Ace,
