The Goo Goo Dolls’ Iris is one of my most favourites songs ever. I’ve heard it so many times and still it sounds as wonderful as the first time I heard it.

Of course, it’s another song from yet another movie soundtrack, this time the ‘City of Angels’. If you haven’t got the soundtrack, it’s well worth buying, it features other amazing songs, like Sarah McLachlan’s ‘Angel’, Alanis Morissette’s ‘Uninvited’ and U2’s ‘If God Will Send His Angels’. The film score by composer Gabriel Yared is fantastic too.

I have to mention Ronan Keating’s cover of this song, as it was a total disaster. Artists should know by now that straight copies of classic songs just don’t work.
