I bought it on Amazon.

Well, a lot of the song is him listing cities in Texas.

Wanted to mention that the song Soy de Tejas has an odd line. He says “el mariachi es mi mero guacamole” - the mariachi is my mere guacamole. Wtf does this mean?

Btw how did it go?

I thought she was attracted to his musical performance on tv?

Louis looked like the happiest panda though

Did anyone else wonder how long the marriage would last?

I probably won't revisit this movie, but don't get me wrong, while I wasn't entertained by it, I still appreciate it on an...artistic level? I didn't know anything about David Byrne before this, but what the movie has taught me is that David Byrne is a fucking weirdo and we need those people like that making movies.

Omg the flute hook in Road Song reminds me of the intro to Mr Sandman but in a minor key lol.

I listened to both and decided the soundtrack from the movie was for me. I needed Dream Operator sung by Annie McEnroe (and with more pedal steel guitar!) and Road Song.

So, I watched this earlier today, but I'm really not sure how to rate it. It felt like a bunch of music videos loosely tied together sometimes. However, I'm glad I watched it and was introduced to the soundtrack. I bought it already and I think I'll be listening to it more often than revisit the movie itself. Like I wasn't feeling the beginning when David Byrne goes into the history of the world, but the background music was fantastic. It has this flute hook - and I'm a sucker for a good flute hook - and then wind instruments get added on like the clarinet/bass clarinet and basoon and oboe. And towards the end when there are more notes, you can hear the keys of the instruments. I love that they left that in there. My favorite song was Dream Operator. It's a lovely 3/4 time and the singer's voice is so sweet with a hint of raspy. I love the lyrics from t-to-b, and i love the bit where she goes "shake-it-up dream, hi-di-ho dream." I also like the last song City of Dreams. It reminds me of Shallow so much! Sometimes I'll sing sha-ha-sha-ha-shallow over it.

Why does the film open and close with the little girl in the white dress dancing on a dirt road?

I liked that line too. I also liked when Louis was showing off his sneakers and when he goes on his toes they squeak twice. Also liked "did you fart" "ooh a kissin cookie" and "we meow meow meow meow"

Wow that totally went over my head. I totally thought the movie was implying Louis was a total creeper for saying that those young women weren’t young enough.

Yeah, I think he said you could find it on Amazon for 1.99, but I don’t see that option now. Anyway, I was looking for this movie and the results cracked me up. Go home, Google, you’re drunk.

CORRECTION: Natasha Lyonne wasn’t on the Superman III episode, she was on the Superman IV episode. (Made me super confused when I saw the hdtgm classics movie nite thread)

One of these days, I will walk out with The Thing board game.

@JammerLea - WHEELS ON MEALS Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao run a food truck in Barcelona and "deliver" food on skateboards. Bonkers.

Paul & Amy probably don't want to bother him at work though

I was hoping for a Ric Ocasek musical

I loved Killing Eve, liked Castle Rock, and thought Runaways was alright.

Have you seen Minding the Gap or Burning yet?

I had a blast! Even though it wasn't a full house, the energy was awesome.

Honestly it was a generic marketing survey form. But to their credit, I think they only sent me 1 newsletter.
