Open Your Eyes (For Traffic)
Listening to a Wally Lopez podcast from last year, I got hooked on a soothing dance remix of Snow Patrol’s Open Your Eyes by Andy “Redanka” Holt.
The video of the original track features an excerpt from a cult short film called C’était un rendez-vous, the story of a guy who takes punctuality seriously dashing through Paris to meet a girl (would’ve been funny if she arrived late). Amid the flaky weather in Montreal, it makes me want to go back there.
Note: a song with a similar mood is the smashing remix of The Killers’ Mr. Brightside by Stuart Price (aka Jacques Lu Cont).
