I truly believe my appreciation for the 90’s wasn’t just because I was a kid during it. I enjoyed the marketing magic back then. Fusing movies with a song and music video, that made the hype for a film more exciting. No social media with an overload of advertisements....just the radio and MTV back then.
We're a part of a significant time. This has always been. We're fortunate enough to be more aware of it. We may go through the worst of modern times. That would be the worst outcome but we're always made for it I pray that we're actually here during the best times.
Funny you say that I’ve always felt like there was just something in the air of the 90’s not because I was a child but there was a different human interaction...a better one in regards to things like ..get togethers , music ,movies , friendships etc
I can definitely relate! It's easy for anyone to have Nostalgia cloud their memories, but the 80s & 90s were Inarguably Great! As you said, Marketing was Far Better! The best examples I can think of are Halloween & Christmas -- Decorations, TV, Music, Candy! Much of what existed back then is gone, never to return...and most of what Still does, stands the test of time!
I don't think people ,youth nowadays realise how big Alannis morresette was...jagged little pill was Thee most real album of that. Year...and a must have for any record collection...
I was a jagged little pill, a supposed former infatuation junkie back in college. Alanis is my "spirit animal." She will always be my GOAT. I hope younger generation can get to know and experience her music. It was transcendental. My coming of age, formative years were heavily influenced by her... with a healthy balance of angst, provocative musings, introspection but with conscious self-preservation and level-headedness. It was a helluva ride!
This movie moved me to tears. I never imagined what it felt like to be drawn to something so unique, just to feel that there is hope left in ones soul. Beautiful to be misunderstood and trajic at the same time.
Lyrics Uninvited" Like anyone would be I am flattered by your fascination with me Like any hot-blooded woman I have simply wanted an object to crave But you, you're not allowed You're uninvited An unfortunate slight Must be strangely exciting To watch the stoic squirm Must be somewhat heartening To watch shepherd meet shepherd But you, you're not allowed You're uninvited An unfortunate slight Like any uncharted territory I must seem greatly intriguing You speak of my love like You have experienced love like mine before But this is not allowed You're uninvited An unfortunate slight I don't think you unworthy But I need a moment to deliberate
Nicholas Cage is very lucky to have worked with Meg Ryan ( City of Angels) and Elizabeth Shue (Leaving Las Vegas). Two of the most beautiful women in Hollywood..
Without the context of the movie, this song takes on an entirely different “badass woman who knows her worth” vibe. I picture a queen considering a suitor.
Never realized this brilliant song & movie was the Genesis 6 story, & and the Angels kept not their first estate, and saw human women were beautiful, and took wives of which ever they chose...the fallen ones & human women had children & birthed The Nephilim, & we've been screwed ever since... & we thought it was the Fall of Adam & Eve, & we've been escaping Eden, ever since! The tragedy of Mankind & God & Yeshua, & I hope it all gets fixed any day!
not a normal pop/rock song. i remember critics being shocked it made it to #1 since it builds from a whisper to a scream with no real chorus or bridge.
Higgs boson effect. When everthing is in order, here comes a radical. Upsetting the balance of the laws of Nature. He became aware of his exsistence and created a tangent universe. All this happening durning his fall to exsist in the first place. Before he hits concrete, his mind went to all posibilites to exsist. His mind settles on this scene. He felt betrayed by his mind. Then he wants to reverse time to try again. He fails...Before thinking of all the happiness posibilites, he chooses, or his mind/soul chooses the darkest reality to his exsistence. That's when the narrator realizes he smoked too much blunts lol peace!
Just to be cuddled up u and bon now would be my heaven xxxxxx well I had my heaven for just a lil while xxx I can't go on without u both ❤️❤️ the rain beating off the window and I just cuddled up to u and we both saying.... Listen to her breathe xxx what were we thinking xx
Was Sleep Token inspired by this song when they put out "Like That"? The off kilter tones & vocals make them sound so beautiful but so deeply disturbing. Absolutely gorgeous - both songs! #sleeptoken
When I used to be a fan of Nicolas Cage, I used to think this was the perfect love song. Then years after I decided not to become a fan, I was surprised it was used for City of Angels. I actually bought the movie in Italian (with French included). Mostly everything Cage does nowadays gets awful in my opinion. I thought about renting or buying this movie since I saw a copy sitting on a shelf in Barnes and Noble. Now I have it in my own home.
