My Favourite Scene: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Harry and Hermione dancing

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 1 (2010): Hermione & Harry dancing

In this scene, Hermione and Harry dance to a very emotive song called O’ Children by Nick Cave and the Black Seeds as they mourn Ron’s absence and the bitter situation that they have found themselves in during the war and the search for Voldemort’s horcruxes.  It seems to be the quiet time before the storm, but after much destruction, loss and heartache.

O’ Children – Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

HP & Deathly Hallows pt1 dance
This scene was perfect for this song!

If you have seen Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, you would have heard this epic.

Sure it’s long, but it is a song so full of emotion and such an incredible deep story that is being told that you end up using up all of your internet allowance listening to it on repeat.

It kind of has a gospel sound which I really enjoy. It makes you feel the pain they’re trying to portray, and like there’s an urgency to get a statement across to somebody. I’m not sure what it is, but the emotion of this sound really comes through.

I hope that you enjoy it as much as I do. If you don’t have a lot of time to listen to it, try skipping about half way through it. That’s where the magic begins.
