Some People

Some People from 1985 by Belouis Some is an infectiously likable tune. After all these years it still puts a smile on my face. The music video is especially enjoyable. The young dancers and the choreography are splendid as are the older actors in the story. In the video, Belouis portrays some kind of pied…

World Shut Your Mouth

Sometimes, don’t you feel like telling the world to shut their yapper? I’ve always loved Julian Cope’s “World Shut Your Mouth” cause of its unusual sentiment. The music video is unusual too, checkout the unique mic stand he uses. Julian was in a band I liked from the 80s called The Teardrop Explodes. WORLD SHUT…

HeartBurn

HeartBurn (1986) is a memorable movie directed by the great Mike Nichols. Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson were brilliant. Their characters were based on real life Nora Ephron and her then husband Carl Bernstein who was the famous journalist from Watergate along with his partner Woodward. Nora Ephron was also the screenwriter for this wonderful…

Your own Private Idaho?

Yammer just launched and the best way to describe it is like this: It’s yet another twitter clone but with a twist. It’s your own private twitter service for your company, organization or family. The key is that everyone’s email address must have the same domain. For example, John@Company.com can join the same yammer network…

Definitely, Maybe

Definitely, Maybe (2008) caught me by surprise. I liked the people that produced it because they were behind some of my favorite movies (Four Weddings and a Funeral, Nottinghill, Love, Actually, etc.) but other then that I didn’t know anyone else involved with the film. Didn’t know the director, the stars and anything. Well, I…

Angels and Airwaves

Here’s a song called BREATHE by Angels and Airwaves. BREATHE A blue, black shade of love. Sent from above. My hands are tied to worlds alone, And this I know. Your breath’s like wine, And just like clouds, my skin crawls. It’s so divine, the sky it glows with fields of light. Did you know…

Loving Jane Austen

Yeah, I love all things Jane Austen. Her books and even all of the movies based on her classic novels! The best ones being “Sense & Sensibility” and “Pride & Prejudice” (Kiera Knightley version). Emma was wonderful too. I even loved the recent “Becoming Jane Austen” with Anne Hathaway. Here’s a video montage of Jane…

All American Girl

Love this song and the music video is so cute too. Carrie Underwood does a good job as several different types of American girls. I’m a push-over for this kind of thing cause I have my own 3-year old All American Girl. All American Girl Since the day they got married, He’d been praying for…

Crazy Sexy Cancer is the incredibly inspiring documentary by Kris Carr about her courageous battle against a rare form of cancer in her liver. It’s a touching and even funny look at the way she’s fighting cancer. It premiered on TLC and Discovery Healthy in the Fall of 2007 but she was actually diagnosed in…
