Angelo Badalamenti (born March 22, 1937) is an American composer for film and television, best known for his hauntingly atmospheric work with filmmaker David Lynch, whose collaborations include Blue Velvet, Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive. He received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the World Soundtrack Awards in 2008.
Angelo Badalamenti was born in Brooklyn, New York, United States to an Italian family. He began taking piano lessons at age eight and spent much of his childhood listening to opera and classical music.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Here's my second transcription. It is only a general shape of this great song. I mean, these are just basic chords, but I think you may find them useful. You may treat it as an acoustic version. You can also try playing along with the recording and have some fun with the bass notes :)
"The nightingale" by Angelo Badalamenti (a song from "TWIN PEAKS") Lyrics by David Lynch
BG#mC#mF# x2
B The nightingale G#m It said to me C#m There is a love F# Meant for me B The nightingale G#m It flew to me C#m And told me F#F#7 That it found my love.
G#m He said one day B I'll meet you C#m Our hearts will fly F#F#7 With the nightingale.
The nightingale He told me One day You will be with me.
The nightingale Said he knew That your love Would find my love one day
My heart flies With the nightingale Through the night All across the world.
I long to see you To touch you To love you Forever more.
