• Cover Versions

  The Strictly Soundtracks team dive into the cover versions used in films. Some are classics reimagined, some are quirky oddities and some — actually most — ended up outshining the original versions. With a playlist that includes Cher, Kylie Minogue, k.d lang and Jessica Simpson, the episode spans various film genres and musical styles to celebrate the power of a great reinterpretation. The post Cover Versions appeared first on Strictly Soundtracks.

• The Wonderful World of Oz

  This week, the Strictly Soundtracks team slip on the Ruby Slippers and follow the Yellow Brick Road into the wonderful world of Oz. Glenn, John and Paul journey from the iconic 1939 original starring Judy Garland,  through the twisted history of the Broadway musical The Wiz and into the Australian heartland for 1976’s oddity, Oz: A Rock and Roll Road Movie. Along the way, they celebrate David Lynch’s Wild at Heart, honour Mariah Carey’s contribution to the canon and wrap up their Oz-session with the film adaptation of Wicked.
