2026 Dead Pool

Recently, I learned they had both released ‘Got to get you into my life’.
EW&F’s was from the Sgt Pepper soundtrack and reached #9 on the Billboard 100.

BS&T’s version came out in 75 on their New City album and reached 62 on the Hot 100.

Both are a fun listen

I liked her song, “It’s a Heartache” but hated “Total Eclipse of the Heart”.

Words cannot describe how much I also hate that song, likely because it seemed to play once an hour on MTV and was about 90 minutes long.

Here’s a great literal video of it: Bing Videos

“Arthur Fonzerelli’s got an army of clones” You have to watch it, it’s like bad lip reading but with videos.

I’m not much of a fan of Jim Steinman’s songs, in general. OK, Bat Out of Hell with Meatloaf was different and catchy, but enough is enough.

Randolph Mantooth, Emergency’s version of Jim Reed. I know a ton of us grew up on Emergency!

Boooo

That’s a bummer. I liked his work, although, early on before Jurassic Park, I used to often confuse him with Bryan Brown.

He never got to see Montana.

Man, I hated him for years after watching Reilly, Ace of Spies, pretty early in his career. Got over it after The Dish or thereabouts.

Did you ever Dirty Deeds? Man, that was such a great fucking film.

I think started to watch it once but didn’t get through it, not a Bryan Brown fan. Everything I see him in he seems like the same ocker he was in The Odd Angry Shot. The third studio album by AC/DC however, that is a much different discussion.

I really liked Bryan Brown in Breaker Morant, as well as the film overall. I’m also a fan of his wife. She was a fucking smoke show in Dead Men Wear Don’t Wear Plaid (a highly, underrated film). I haven’t seen her in many years, however.

If you can get past your distaste of Bryan Brown, highly recommend watching the film. Sam Neill is so good as a crooked cop and you also get John Goodman, who’s great in just about everything he does.

I first saw Breaker Morant when we got HBO in the 80’s, and I remember that I really enjoyed it. I’ll have to track it down again and see if I still like it as much.
