Julee Cruise - Floating Into The Night

Probably most well known for singing Falling (from Twin Peaks) Julee recorded Floating Into The Night in 1989 with David Lynch & Angelo Badalamenti after she had previously recorded a song for Lynch's Blue Velvet movie. David Lynch also used some of the album's music for his Industrial Symphony No 1 in which he filmed Julee singing on stage.

When David Lynch was filming Twin Peaks he used 2 tracks off this album in the show, plus Falling (the instrumental version was the theme to the show). The album is full of dreamy vocals with a darker side to the lyrics typical David Lynch I guess. Rocking Back Inside My Heart was the second single off the record but didn't really do a lot in the charts but the album went silver in the UK. It is a gorgeous album to listen to, heart tugging songs, full of emotions with a twist in the lyrics. One of the best songs is Into The Night, but the album always gets a full play!
