Speaking of the Brady Bunch ~ I just love this scene/song.
Note one of cast in the original Against All Odds:
I didnāt know Against all odds was a remake, nor have I seen the original! I did see Against all odds again a few months ago, and liked it as one of those quirky 80s movies - not great (versus for example Amadeus which came out around the time) but interesting enough to see it through.
Loved Miami Vice! Maybe I should rewatch a few episodesā¦
Anyone here been reading Bonoās autobiography? Just came out, but still on the fence whether to purchase. They did pick a good title - one of their earlier, underrated songs.
Also among noir catalogue, Body Heat is a remake of Double Indemnity.
It was against all odds for us boys to see Rachel wards boobs when that came out but we made it. Just googling movies 1984 is like a murderers row of classics! Beverly Hills cop police academy bachelor party ghostbusters 16 candles (has not aged well!) footloose gremlins swingshift many many more
Once upon a time in America, The terminator⦠But Amadeus deserves the top spot imho.
Yep. Who needs Mozart when you have tuffnel
Mel Torme Christmas music.
Is today my lucky bun day?
ok so iāve been reminded of haggis and scotland where Mike Myers in So I Married an Axe Murderer says it does seem most of the cuisine is based on a dareā¦i mean I did have a deep fried hamburger bun and all waiting for the ferry to skye back in the dayā¦what are the top musical artists and songs from scotland?
anyone can pick Rod the Mod who is part Scottish, or then Gerry Rafferty has some smooth numbers, and Ian Anderson and David Byrne have some classic rock for sure. Bon Scott takes the cake for bagpipe rock songs with Long Way to the Top (fuck yeah). Sorry Iām not going with Big Country tho that was a well played MTV video or the Proclaimers. When you say something isnāt your bag, you really mean it in this category.
Come inside my sugar walls? yes please. Iāll take the morning train for Sheena Easton any day.

What songs from Scotland or Scottish artists do you like?
Wellā¦
Didnāt know Franz Ferdinand were Scottish.
And then of course one of the most iconic āScottishā songs ever made by a non-Scot, was by a Beatle.
Our public radio station is running a 5O years ago in 1972 music week, with listener requests. What were you listening to in '72?
1972 was before I was born⦠But looking at the list of best albums, and best songs, and given my renewed interest in all things Barry White, Iād probably pick:
I was ending my Soph year in college. There were concerts at least once/week on campus, rivaling that of the Fillmore East (which had just closed down in '71).
