Her distance made me appreciate

The Nightmare Before Christmas is getting a re-release as a 3-D film later this month. To cash in Disney is re-releasing the soundtrack with covers by Marilyn Manson, Fiona Apple, Fall Out Boy, She Wants Revenge and Panic! At the Disco. Four of these tunes are on the Nightmare myspace page. I've been listening to Fiona Apple's version of "Sally's Song" for almost an hour.

The song plays an integral part in the movie but it never stood out. With Jon Brion's production (I think he produced it) and extremely melancholy lyrics the ditty sounds like it could only be from Apple.

God damn, this is a great song.

A van is on fire in Hickory Hills and the children upstairs are running.
