The Weird Sisters - Magic Works

Who would have considered that 'Magic Works' would have entered to the list of my favorite movie songs that are able to create considerable emotional attachment to the movie. Not me, especially after listening the other songs from the band. But, anyways, it broke away the wall to reach the heights of Mad World from Donnie Darko.

I guess what captured me the most is the singer's style - a softer version of David Bowie - which is a combination of David Bowie's voice and Lou Reed's style in Perfect Day. Also, I cannot deny the impact of the Radiohead members in the song.

Since I couldn't find the lyrics to the song, here is my version:

MAGIC WORKS

And dance, your final dance
This is your final chance
To hold the one you love
You know you've waited long enough
Still believe
That magic works
Don't be afraid
I've been hurt
Don't let this magic die
The answer's there
Just look in her eyes
And make your final move
Don't be scared
She want you too
Yeah it's hard
You must be brave
Don't let this moment slip away
Don't believe that magic works
Don't be afraid
Afraid of being hurt
Don't let this magic die
The answer's there
Just look in her eyes
And don't believe that magic can die
No no no this magic can't die
So dance your final dance
Cause this is your final chance

I might later try to create a video for the song. It is sad that we don't have the scenes for the next two movies.
