Once. (Music from the Motion Picture). By Glen Hansard, Markéta Irglová, and The Swell Season. Piano/Vocal/Guitar Songbook. Softcover. 72 pages. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.313403).
ISBN 1423439287. 9x12 inches.
Shot on a shoestring budget, this 2006 Irish musical film captured the hearts of movie-goers – not only with its sweet and authentic plot, but also with its awesome songs, performed by The Frames frontman Glen Hansard and young Czech musician Markéta Irglová, who later banded together as The Swell Season. The soundtrack was nominated for a Grammy, and the lead ballad “Falling Slowly” won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. Our folio features 13 tunes from the movie: All the Way Down • Broken Hearted Hoover Fixer Sucker Guy • Fallen from the Sky • Falling Slowly • Gold • The Hill • If You Want Me • Leave • Lies • Once • Say It to Me Now • Trying to Pull Myself Away • When Your Mind's Made Up.

The Little Movie That Won An Oscar
If you have not seen the movie--see it. Then get the music. The duets of piano and guitar are one of a kind. Written by the stars of the movie, they performed on the 2008 Academy Award Show before winning the award for best original movie score.

do not buy for guitar
Don't really think this book is good for guitar - there are no tabs. The chord positions are akward (I've seen tabs/chord arrangements that use open chords and sound fine) and didn't think it sounded right to me.

great music
this is a great soundtrack and it is good to be able to play it on the piano, as i find it is often more difficult to get books that do not focus more on the TAB versions. Some of the songs are easier and some are very tricky, it...
