The full version of "I'd Do Anything For Love" comes in at 12:01.


he cried when he wrote that song -- sue him if it plays too long!

A very guilty pleasure movie for me would be "Spice World". Meat makes an appearance in that movie as the Spice Girls' bus driver. He's asked to clean the toilet, and responds, "Hey I love you girls, and would do anything for you. But I won't do that."

Just out of curiosity, based on the shray database, what song holds the 10@10 record for most plays?

shray or urth may know that off the tops o' their heads; I'd have to research it tonite when i have more time.  It's probably NOT Katrina & the Waves.

I cursory look-see shows that XTC's "Generals & Majors" has 19 plays in the shraytabase, with TTD's "Wishing Well" and FYC's "Good Thing" tied at 17 each. These include reruns, er, "classics" if that matters. (If either mshray or urth have better info, please correct me.)  The orig Katrina, "Walking on Sunshine", has a meager 12 plays -- yes, I know Katrina status is based on percentage as well.

I can believe that about "Wishing Well" and "Good Thing" - I guess "Generals and Majors" doesn't stick out as much for me.
