I've created a mini medley of two of my favourite songs on the Kill Bill Vol 1 soundtrack (although I love the whole soundtrack a lot!!). The first one is "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" by Nancy Sinatra, originally sung by Cher and written by her then husband Sonny Bono. Nancy Sinatra recorded one of the best-known covers of the song, for her 1966 album How Does That Grab You? Her version features tremolo guitar, played by her arranger, Billy Strange and had a resurgence in popularity when it was used in the opening credits of Kill Bill. In the sequence preceding the credits, Tarantino creates a literal, bloody interpretation of the song's chorus and the third verse, about a wedding day. Her version also was the theme for BBC coverage of the 2005 Wimbledon tennis championships, and has been sampled on several hip-hop recordings, including the Audio Bullys (featuring Nancy Sinatra) top 3 UK hit "Shot You Down" in 2005. The second one is "The Lonely Shepherd", also known as Einsamer Hirte or Der einsame Hirte in German or as El pastor solitario in Spanish, is an instrumental piece by James Last, first released in a recording with the Romanian panflutist Gheorghe Zamfir. In my version I have transposed it from D minor to F minor to stay in the same key as the first song... you may see me hesitate a little in the video a few times - that's because I was sight transposing and this video is actually the first take! Kill Bill: Volume 1 is a 2003 American martial arts film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. It stars Uma Thurman as The Bride, who swears revenge on a team of assassins (Lucy Liu, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, and Vivica A. Fox) and their leader Bill (David Carradine) after they try to kill her and her unborn child. Her journey takes her to Japan, where she battles the Tokyo yakuza. Tarantino conceived Kill Bill as an homage to "grindhouse" cinema including martial arts films, samurai cinema, blaxploitation films, and spaghetti westerns.
