Astoundingly, this is the first time Dave has done an Oscar-themed set in the nearly 13 years I've been listening. And these are songs HE is picking, none of that "Fogheads choose" crap (thank god!).

Predictions:
"Footloose"
"Do You Know Where You're Going To"
"Can You Feel the Love Tonight"
"My Heart Will Go On" (shudder ... spudder ... thunk)
This could get real bad, real quick.

You obviously didn't hear Dave's explanation about 15 mins ago. He said he looked at a list of Oscar-winning stuff and decided most of it "shouldn't be on the radio on a Friday morning". So we're getting his patented eclectic mix of stuff he thinks SHOULD be remembered. So chill, dude.

Righto. Greg asked Dave why he seemed to have a bit of doubt in his voice as he talked about it, and Dave responded, "Well I know I'm going to like it, I'm just not sure about anyone else."
In fact I called in to suggest that "as a gag, you should play the first couple bars of 'You Light Up My Life', just to scare people."
He didn't see the humor in it, although either Peter or Greg (or both) were chuckling in the background. All he said was, "See that's why we're not sticking to Oscar-winning songs."
So like Mike said, chill. I think this is going to be good.

LOL! NYC actually has a radio station called "Chill 101.9" Oddly, I have a strong desire to experience another NYC winter before I get too old to enjoy it.

"Best James Bond Song Ever" -- Duran Duran?? Yikes. Now I'm the one who needs to chill.
-
"View To a Kill" is NOT the Best James Bond song ever- it's just the one you had in your archive & that was pre-ordained by your Radio Overlords, Dave Morey.
"Thunderball"... now THAT'S a James Bond theme.
-
not even close, dude!
ok, it's one of my favorite duran duran songs, but not the best bond theme! nancy sinatra, carly simon, lulu, shirley bassey, laura brannigan...
sigh.

initial score: Renee 1 Peter 0, although I would rather here Shirley Bassey myself.

3-way jinx.

I agree with you in spirit, but it most likely was th emost successful Bond title from Billboard's standpoint
"Goldfinger" was only a #8, "Live & Let Die" and "Nobody Does It Better" were both #2's...
-
HM Star Wars. If you liked Holst's "The Planets"- you'll LOVE the "Star Wars Theme"!

BOS: Purple Rain!

I'm a lousy typist & make many typos. But I tries to gets my facts straight, capice! :wink:

anyone besides me remember Tomita, the Japanese synthesizer guy who was popular in the late '70s? He did stuff like his version of The Planets, and "Snowflakes are Dancing".
-

maybe I should send Gaz an MP3 of Dave Edmunds covering "Mars" from "The Planets!"

you don't want to hear the live version. who knew he'd be reaching out to jehovah?

hey speaking of Duran Duran, this gives me chance to post a My Three Bands question:
What do the following three bands have in common:
Duran Duran
The Guess Who
Weezer

Jeez, if you think you've seen the crankypants before, just go ahead and send that--that should take crankypants to a whole new level.

Would Al Green fall into this category? Of course, his call to god came after the grits incident, so perhaps it wasn't simultaneous.
-

Leonard Bernstein's first appearance on 10@10! Possible BOS!!

sure. the clap. grits. when your sexin' leads you to fear, call on g-o-d.
you can always go back to sexin'. let's just hope you make some dope gospel albums (like the rev. green) while you're on the wagon.
-
wow! Dunno about youse guys, but I really enjoyed the Leonard Berstein.
-
good morning, officer crumpke!
that's Krupke. But VHM. Nothing like trying to make a bunch of nelly male dancers look like butch, tough gang members.

Indeed. "If Elvis is the King, then ah must be the Queen, honey!"
-
didn't he say "a couple of songs" brought back into popularity by Quentin T.?
if so that probably means "Stuck In The Middle With You" is coming, as it was on the earlier Insta-Poll.
-
Ack! How could we forget Harold and Maude?
Cue the Cat Stevens!!!
-
the obligatory H&M clip. But now that I've actually seen the film, I don't mind.
-

-
At the risk of having my Hipster Card revoked: I really don't get all the fuss about Harold & Maude.
But this Cat Stevens song is nice.
Also, if you want to be me- be me. But you've got bills due, Mister.
ETA: I mean, yeah it's hella touching that depressed harold digs wacky Maude & he's young & she's, like, a million and lives in a goddam train car. But, I dunno....
-
VHM American Beauty.

LLOLWTIME (literally laughing out loud with tears in my eyes)
Dude, you are a pistol...
-
now a great clip from American Beauty.

it's simply beautiful. the way people should treat each other, i think. "there's so much beauty in the world..."
-
VHM American Beauty.
jinx Mike!
(been awhile, too)
-
Dude, you are a pistol...
And you should see me when I'm LOADED! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
Yeah.
it's simply beautiful. the way people should treat each other, i think. "there's so much beauty in the world..."
And as I added to my original post- you're absolutely right. I think my problem with it stems from this: I first saw it with a buncha people who thouht they were oh-so-sophisticated. And they just laughed and laughed at everything. It was clever & quirky, but rolling on the ground funny? Nope.
The love story part is great- but I'm afraid I'm a victim of "hipster hype".
-

ahh. i thought it was donnie darko........thanks.

Best performance by a red-blooded heterosexual imagining himself to be a dying gay man: Bruce.
-
VHM. Nothing like trying to make a bunch of nelly male dancers look like butch, tough gang members.
Ha!
I just saw this from the IMDb trivia for West Side Story:
Although the producers tried to keep the different gangs separate during filming to create tension, Russ Tamblyn (Riff), said that he knew of at least one Jet who was "roommates" with a Shark through filming.
-
the obligatory H&M clip. But now that I've actually seen the film, I don't mind.
-
"the talented mr. ripley" i knew i'd heard that song somewhere before. i hated that movie. i really wanted to like it. i waited a long time to see it. but it was bad. and long. almost as long as i waited to see it. not even seymour-hoffman could save it.
-
coulda done without that Spanish (Italian?) thing at the end. But otherwise swell...
-
When you're a Jet
You're a Jet all the way!
So, I hope you can dance &
Are totally gay...
Sorry.
-

I was puzzled, but it took me a second to remember to read the subject line of Geoff's posts--that explained it all.
Man, you would probably really enjoy it. Not just to get the 10@10 references, but it really is a very warm, funny, charming film, with a slightly twisted (but still funny) side. A great rent, next time you're looking for something for a rainy night at home.

If you have Comcast, it's avail (or was last month) on PPV for 3 bucks, which is how I saw it.

did we lose Gaz? maybe the Crankypants were so tight it cut off his circulation :cry:

Yep, looks like he bailed back on page 1 of this litany. Too bad--if you discount the first and last songs, it was pretty fine, I'd say.
Hope the BMMB didn't get him.

Yeah, it's just me, tilting at windmills as I am wont to do. I always see the naked subject line, and have a need to fill it!
re: H&M, we have Netflix, so maybe I'll put it in the queue. My queue is so clogged right now. Haven't had time to view anything in weeks.
