kill bill | mystery song

so i watched kill bill for the first time tonight.

......iiiinteresting.

there was this song that came on several times in the movie and even during the credits (i think the first time it came on was when the bride was being given her sword) and when i heard it, i was like, hey i know that song! i love that song. it totally brought back memories. but i dunno what it's called. i first heard it in regina... channel 4 (cbc i believe?) used to run this short animation thingy between programs and they had this one animation about a bird... two birds actually... one bird was plain-looking and the other bird was grand and beautiful, and the plain-looking bird wished that it could look like the beautiful bird. the whole thing was so sad... the bird trying so hard to be what it wasn't because it couldn't see its own beauty. anyway, that song was the background music for the animation and i fell in love with both the song and the story. (there's something about the song that just makes me wanna cry... maybe it's that beautiful pan flute playing.) i've wanted to know what the song was called but it's been a decade since my regina days and i've forgotten about it til now. i suppose i could just look it up on the net... but i probably won't. i'll just continue to let it be that mystery song i love so much :)

so great, in fact, that i'm going to overlook the fact that u've made my precious mystery song no longer a mystery (nooo!!) :P on the plus side, with the title and artist revealed, maybe i'll get myself a copy.

Yeah -- unbelievably, it's really me. haha. I mean, of all places and of all things huh? That's a great tune you like there. It's been a favorite of mine for so long.

This is probably not the best place to catch up, so if you have time, send me an email!
