Melancholic love songs and a bosa nova vibe

Here is my suggestion for Parrarel Universe. 


I was watching the 2019 movie Tune In for Love earlier this week (I had seen it already) and there was this Korean song that came on. Immediately its op ^ening chords brought another song to my mind. Both songs feature on movie soundtracks.


The first one is Do You See My Love by Lucid Fall and the other one is Secret Garden by Bruce Springsteen. 


The former is on, already mentioned, Korean film Tune In for Love and the latter is on the soundtrack to the 1990s movie Jerry Maguire starring Tom Cruise in the title role.


I wonder if you would also find the subtle similarity of the two songs. They happen to have in common a similar op ^ening (at least to me) and a kind of bosa nova sound. Plus these are two melancholic love songs with a similar tempo and low key.


I am so curious if you have played a song by Bruce Springsteen before on your show! 


I love Bruce Springsteen. He was touring in Europe earlier this summer and I saw him playing 3 nights in Dublin, Ireland and 1 night in Edinburgh, Scotland. When it comes to concerts Bruce Springsteen is unparalleled! He is fantastic live. But that is quite another topic. :-)


Please listen carefully as it is the very first second or two, the very first chords that have linked Lucid Fall’s Do You See My Love with Bruce Springsteen’s Secret Garden for my suggestion for Parallel Universe.
