Also not acapella, but one of my favorite covers ever.

Teague...same....same...aaaaand same
Lamer...damn that was intense.
paulou...have not seen it before...but don't have time atm, I will report back

Since we seem to be on a music kick, I thought I'd post quite possibly my favourite song of all time. You'd have to be a real grouch to not smile during this, it's like an injection of Happiness (made all the more intense and satisfying because Footloose has some pretty dark scenes).

They remade Footloose a couple of years ago and although it's pretty good and retains the same ending (with some identical shots and dance moves), it doesn't quite capture the same magic.

I love Buffy and I love stunts so I was thrilled when the stunt co-ordinator for seasons 2-4, Jeff Pruitt, started posting these on Youtube. They strongly feature (rather obviously as she was Buffy's double)  his wife, the awesome Sophia Crawford. Sorry if you're not interested in this but to quote Teague- this is so my shit-

But....I just wanted to quote Teague. Couldn't really care if nobody liked the vids or not, nobody is forcing them to watch. Can't even say things ironically these days

Anyway, inspired by talk of Doomsday in another thread, I remembered that film used Two Tribes in its climax. I then remembered a better use of the song in the 1985 Comic Strip film The Supergrass. Want to know just how badass Robbie Coltraine is? Watch this and know that that is really him, no stunt double used at all and no safety harness or any of that pussy shit

Sophia Crawford is awesome. She was the stunt double for the original Pink Ranger too, fact fans.

That's about the best scene in it, mate

Peter Richardson is an odd chap. He basically created The Comic Strip and had creative control of many of its output and because of this, he has gone back and edited quite a lot of the old stuff. The dvd version of The Supergrass has about 8 minutes missing and some of the TV episodes have had scenes snipped too, for no  reason other than he wasn't happy with it. Now, I fully respect that but his edits were pointless and have caused fans of the Comic Strip to complain. One of the edits for an episode called Transatlantic Raiders completely removes an important emotional beat and without it, the ending just isn't the same.....

Yeeeeeeeep...

Dude I am so right there with yah. I've had the Pope Song stuck in my head ever since I heard the news...not quite sure what that says about me...but well, there it is.

And that clip is so freaking cool. I love Tim Minchin so much.

Oh, Charlie Brooker, I love thee.
