It is such a pleasure to hear a new song from one of my old favorite bands. (I remember discovering Bowie's "Rock n Roll Suicide" post-college days and it saved me the expense of buying anti-depressant meds). Isn't love dialogue in movies outrageous? It may have had its predecessors, but "Love Story" (1970) is a horrible early example, and I bet it was responsible for millions of divorces in the 80s by instigating utterly USELESS communication!! Ali McGraw is so effing annoying. Here's a link to ADMONISH OUR PARISH OF THIS HEINOUS FILM: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JASEIR8hjzk I'd also like to know your thoughts on how music lyrics have contributed to love language. Take the lyrics, "Baby, now that I FOUND you I can't let you go. I BUILT MY WORLD AROUND YOU." Jesus C, that is sick. Where was this woman he "found"? Under a rock? At the end of a rainbow in a pot? I wonder if building his world around her included the benefits of joint tax filing. Poor guy. Dear Reverend Jon,
