Ep. 10: Shirin Raza's Five Rom-Com Soundtrack Songs

Music is a powerful emotive force in romantic comedy films, and the right song placed in the right scene can leave us not only with lifelong memories, they can also affect our life decisions. In this episode we go to the movies with Bar Shiru co-owner and rom-com fanatic Shirin Raza, who picks five songs from some of her favorite soundtracks and draws parallels to her own romantic and professional journeys.

Shirin's selections:

1. Loose Caboose - Henry Mancini (Breakfast at Tiffany's, 1961)

2. Bad Reputation - Joan Jett (10 Things I Hate About You, 1999)

3. Love of My Life (An Ode To Hip-Hop) - Erykah Badu (Brown Sugar, 2002)

4. Turn Me On - Kevin Lyttle (Hitch, 2005)

5. This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody) - Talking Heads (Rom-Com film TBD)
