U Got the Look.
"I stand corrected" is what triggered it.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Did anyone see the Ben Stiller Show parody of "One" being used to sell breakfast cereal? Ben does a fine, fine Bono.
I think it was even Lucky Charms. He did have a good early 90s Bono.
And the manager from the Partridge Family was their manager, I think.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
"One I Love" is perfect for a Hallmark Valentine's Day campaign.
"Hi honey, you're a simple prop to occupy my mind. Happy Valentine's Day!"

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
I think it was even Lucky Charms.
Lucky Clovers specifically. It's truly, truly beautiful.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
"Come Sail Away" (how apropos!) was the big spotlight dance in "The Virgin Suicides" and "Freaks and Geeks".
I remember an essay (or maybe it was a MBTV review) about the use of "Come Sail Away" in Freaks & Geeks -- how it seems like a slow song but suddenly rawks in a pretty annoying way. Anyway, I'm going to have to dig my F&G dvds out & watch 'em again now, y'know.

If rocking when the aliens come is wrong, then I don't want to be right.

But Neil Young didn't start rocking when the aliens came in "After the Gold Rush"!

But would he have objected to others rocking? Well, maybe if those others were Styx, but still....

It's really well-chosen for that scene because (memfault) has just gotten up the courage to ask Cindy to dance, and just as they start the music gets fast and he freezes, and she beckons him to dance anyhow, and it's just incredibly sweet and made me smile and become slightly teary.

if I can swing it, Open Arms will be some cheesy ass dance at my wedding. Awww yeah. Maybe I can get the DJ to announce, "couple dance, couples dance only, ladies choice"
