Trainspotting
Original Soundtrack

 

   Most soundtracks I buy, listen to for a couple weeks, and forget about. Even the really good ones, like Pi, rarely last me more than a month and a half. Which is what sets Trainspotting apart: it's lasted me almost two years so far and will probably stay in rotation for quite a while longer. I bought it just for "Born Slippy," but the entire thing surprised me by how good it was. Other favorites: "Lust for Life," "Sing," "Mile End," "For What You Dream Of," and "2:1."
