Why yes, I'm obnoxious enough to do this. Even if you have no interest in Inglourious Basterds, this still may be worth your while as I've compiled a variety of artists such as Ennio Morricone, Grace Jones, Ultravox, Concrete Blonde, The Church, etc.

Under the cut are the full-size cover image, tracklist, lyrics, and link to download.




1. Ennio Morricone - Un Amico (Versione chitarra 12 corde) - Lyrics
Un ami reste toujours un ami
If you didn't know before that Un Amico has lyrics and Ennio composed different versions for the same film (Revolver), you do now. Vocal is by singer/actor Daniel Beretta. This version is just Daniel and an acoustic guitar; only the last verse of the song is sung.

2. Charles Bernstein - Paul and Samantha - Instrumental, from the film Deadly Friend

3. INXS - Suicide Blonde - Lyrics
Suicide blonde
Was the colour of her hair
Like a cheap distraction
For a new affair
She knew it would finish
Before it began
Something tells me you lost the plan

4. Grace Jones - I'm Not Perfect (But I'm Perfect For You) - Lyrics
Had we met at a different time we’d be perfect for each other
Now were spending all our time, in this world apart together
My heart is aching, from all the love we're giving
We're not faking, is this the life we're living?

5. The Psychedelic Furs - Love My Way - Lyrics
There's emptiness behind their eyes
There's dust in all their hearts
They just want to steal us all
And take us all apart

6. David Bowie - Because You're Young - Lyrics
He punishes hard - was loving her such a crime
She took back everything she said
Left him nearly out of his mind
They're people I know - people I love
They seem so unhappy - dead or alive

7. Real Life - Exploding Bullets - Lyrics
Stand close to me my little friend
It's so hard to see let's not pretend
There's danger in the night for you and me
There's men with armalite who kill for free

8. Iamx - Spit It Out - Lyrics
Pleasure for pleasure
It eases consequence
And love for a fall
But I know you love to take a risk

9. Riz Ortolani - Crucified Woman - Instrumental, from Cannibal Holocaust

10. John Farnham - Innocent Hearts - Lyrics, from one of Tarantino's favorite grindhouse films, Savage Streets
No more innocents
No more innocent hearts

11. Suzanne Vega - Left Of Center - Lyrics
I think that somehow
Somewhere inside of us
We must be similar
If not the same
So I continue
To be wanting you
Left of center
Against the grain

12. Ultravox - All Stood Still (12 inch version) - Lyrics
I suppose it's a bit of an odd choice, but I relate it to Shosanna and Le Gamaar.
The black box failed (The codes got crossed)
And the jails decayed (The keys got lost)
Everyone kissed (We breathe exhaust)
In the new arcade (Of the holocaust)

13. Charlie Sexton - Beat's So Lonely - Lyrics
Wanting him only
But the people never see
Her heart burning
That's the secret that she keeps

14. Green Day - 21 Guns - Lyrics
Do you know what's worth fighting for,
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away
And you feel yourself suffocating?
Does the pain weigh out the pride?
And you look for a place to hide?
Did someone break your heart inside?
You're in ruins

15. The Church - Under The Milky Way - Lyrics
And it's something quite peculiar
Something that's shimmering and white
Leads you here despite your destination
Under the milky way tonight

16. Ingrid Michaelson - Die Alone - Lyrics
Kiss the boys as they walk by, call me their baby
But little do they know, I'm just a maybe
Maybe my baby will be the one to leave me sore
Maybe my baby will settle the score

17. Concrete Blonde - Heal It Up - Lyrics
Feeling the fire under my feet
I was a liar
You were a cheat
Playing with knives
We were cut close to home
Close to the bone
You're so alone

18. a-Ha - The Blood That Moves The Body - Lyrics
It's the way we feel
Tonight
As if it's all unreal
All right
My love, won't you come back to
Our love, you know I'll react to
The blood that moves my body
Now covers the ground

19. Suede - The Next Life - Lyrics
See you in the next life
When we'll fly away for good

20. Ennio Morricone - Un Amico - Lyrics - Trailer for Revolver, the film it was written for.
Full track, vocal by Daniel Beretta.
