Playground Love (With Gordon Tracks)


Last night I was watching a new episode of "Medium" and became enthralled with the haunting song that kept playing in different spots throughout the episode. As is usually the case (but not always because there have been some "iffy" ones this season) "Medium" was heartfelt and mesmerizing. Long after it was over I couldn't stop thinking about THAT song so I did what I always do when I've just seen a tv show and there is no credit given to a featured song...I went online.

Thanks to someone who really knows his music stuff I found my answer on the Internet Movie Database, though this thread:

After finding out the title I then went onto Amazon's website and bought the song:

(I use Amazon because it's digital library works on all MP3 players.)

"Playground Love" (like many Air songs) is deceptively light and frothy and just below the surface. This particular song opens with drums and piano and everything is low-key and sensual, yet somehow disturbing...it has also been featured on "The Virgin Suicides" soundtrack.
