Mercy of Man and the Music that Inspired The Card Counter

Posted earlier today on BRMC’s Facebook page:

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0birIEVpDshr9DUpkzIz8c… Mercy of Man and the music that inspired The Card Counter.

This was a crazy ride of exploring many different colors/sounds/tones for so many months. If you’re curious what inspired me while working on the soundtrack, and what I was listening to while composing, then you’ll enjoy this. Mostly for all the super nerds out there, ha. But yeah, check out the playlist on Spotify now.

Here’s a little more info on the soundtrack from the article:

Coinciding with the US release of The Card Counter on September 10th, this thirteen-track collection began as a one-song project but evolved into something much greater – Levon Been has composed several other original songs for this revenge thriller, as well as much of the film’s instrumental score and sound design.

Mercy of Man (feat. S.G. Goodman) by Robert Levon Been

Posted today on BRMC and Robert Levon Been’s YouTube pages, another new track from The Card Counter soundtrack!

when your silent eyes won’t speak
but you can’t feel the quiet
and your strumming all the strings
but there’s nothing but darkness
with your crying eyes
it’s only your prayers that your fighting
and the way is shown
but you can’t see the world without starlight

so you hollow yourself in the mercy of man
you just need something to find your way home
and a spire of dreams are the finest of things
you just need someone to carry you home

when your quiet eyes won’t speak
but you can’t feel the silence
and your forced to scrape and steal
till your nothin but diamond

and royal kings or a choir of thieves
you just need someone to find your way home
a spire of dreams are the finest of things
you just need someone to carry you home
