Man... Haven't listened to NIN for ages.

Pretty sure there's a good reason for that, but there's no denying that there were a lot of bangers if that was your thing.


Seriously Brenda, Sigs... Really for real not happy music in these links.

Their Best, and one of the all time bests, IMO...




So good, but so hard to recommend to people who I don't already know would almost certainly like it.

One of my picks of all time greatest songs ever, and its unlistenable to most, I would imagine.




*This one I might actually give a cautious recommendation to Sigs. And listen with the volume down and turn it up only if you need to and only after you've heard the loudness of the chorus.

I think you might actually share some of my thoughts about the lyrics on this one.

And if you knew how many times I probably listened to it in my teenage years, some things might make a little more sense to you than they did 5 minutes ago before you started the video.

What a great song that I totally forgot about over the years.

I never knew who did it, and never would have guessed .38 Special until it was one of the featured songs in a recent Professor of Rock video.




Been a while since 'ole Jack has had any emotions that songs like these were about, but if songs about love, stupid mistakes and a shot at redemption are what you're in the mood for, it'd be hard to find a better song than this for the occasion.

I'd put it right up there with Against All Odds, Never Gonna Dance Again, Never Gonna Let You Go. Weird that I still hear the rest of those enough where I haven't forgotten them, but this one just kind of disappeared over the years.





ETA: Props to the video creator. I was going to show a different lyric video that was simply white letters on black background, but I found the channel's name and self-plug in the beginning to be needlessly offensive, so I picked the one that had a thumbnail for a late 90's teen drama movie I remember seeing at some point, although the memory of who I saw it with sadly seems to have faded...

But one thing I'm pretty sure about is that the movie is not at all about these two getting into a fight over the guy's infidelity. If I remember correctly, he was supposed to be our typical nerd guy who was going for the girl way out of his league, and somehow he just finally happened to string the right words together at the right time and make her fall in love with him.

I think that there's some additional end-of-2nd-act drama that shakes things up a bit in this movie and allows for some of the footage they used that wouldn't be available otherwise, but I think it's pretty much just the 10th version of Patrick Dempsey's Loverboy, which itself was probably the 10th version of 10 other movies going back over a hundred years.

That's not at all what this song is about in any way. But if you never saw the movie, or remember it less than I believe I do, you'd probably walk away after watching this video thinking that Can't Hardly Wait was the story about a guy winning his girl back after he cheated on her.

Well done.






Oh... And however popular Jennifer Love Hewett and that guy who played the happy dude on Empire Records and the even happier dude on That Thing You Do ended up being, it wasn't popular enough. They were both really good and probably seriously underrated.

You can see it just in the scenes from this video without any of the spoken dialog. I've never watched that movie or really too many others without the volume off unless I was doing it intentionally for some reason.

Look at them act. Look at that emotion on their faces.

Maybe my dude was always a little too happy in most of his movies... at least the ones that I've seen him in... but I don't ever remember not believing he was happy. I've probably seen him in 5 movies over the years, and he always added something to the screen no matter how big or small the part. He was great all the way back in Dutch with Al Bundy when he was just a kid.


But Jennifer Love Hewett here. Wow. She was something else.

And there she is, eyebrows raising just the right amount at just the right time and then just speaking 1,000 words silently with those eyes and that hesitant smile before giving in and going back for more...

Really good screen kisses have to be at least as hard to fake as those big ole crocodile tears that some actors and actresses can pull off. I'd have to imagine at least double since there's two of you doing one of the most intimate acts that two people can do for a wide screen audience to judge. If there's no chemestry, it's obvious. And those kisses do exist seemingly more all the time and they tend to happen with the camera zoomed out waaaaaaay further out than the kisses in this movie were.


Seriously...

Who directed this movie?

Unless the movie itself
