"Moments of Love" - Art of Noise


I'm still at a loss from last night, but today I was reminded about this beautiful, awe-inspiring instrumental melody. This song would play in the background when the FM radio station 92.3 (when it was formerly known as "The Beat") did their late night, love song dedication hour. The DJ would read letters and poems over this every night. I would listen to it wishing she wouldn't interrupt it with her words. I didn't know the artist or the title and it drove me crazy trying to figure it out with her talking over it. It was a mystery to me.

Keep in mind this was before the Internet, before ask.com and Google took over, and before you could take your mobile phone and place it next to the speaker so that it can tell you the song. But I guess I wasn't the only one because as it caught on, so many people called in requesting for it vs. making their own dedication. One night the whole 10+ minute piece blared over the airwaves and all the eager listeners, including me went to bed finally satisfied.

Lyrics:

Fuse is lit
Now the fuse is lit
(Now) The art, the art
(Now) The noise, the noise
(Now) The sound, the sound

The noise, the noise
The noise, the noise
The sound, the sound

The art, the art
The noise, the noise
The sound, the sound
The sound, the sound

Go ahead now, it's bed time

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.

Love Is Not Blind

"Colorblind" - Counting Crows I originally had a Dave Matthews Band song in my head, but like always I'm bending the rules a little bit and going with what's in my heart. After all, I couldn't follow my last blog with something you didn't like, could I? That just wouldn't fit and this seems to do just that. This song reminds me of the movie Cruel Intentions . It's hard not to think of it. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe's chemistry was so strong, especially in their steamy love scene with this song playing in the background, that any other memory pales in comparison. I always thought the lyrics were so simple and romantic, but it became even clearer here. There was no doubt about it. I knew instantly that they were a real life couple even before they announced it. Love is obvious. Acting can never really be this good unless two people have genuine feelings for each. Look at Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams in The Notebook and Angelina Jolie ...

Alter Ego

"Dancing in the Dark" - Tegan & Sara (Original by Bruce Springsteen) There's nothing like a set of twin sister lesbians to start my day right. At least that's how they were introduced to me by my co-worker as we sat inside a what-used-to-be-white PT Cruiser (it needs a car wash like no other). We were driving up Alvarado street passed MacArthur Park and Korea Town when this duo first came on. It was a bit soft at first, but I couldn't remember which song it was now that I think about it. I asked him who it was and he said their names so fast I thought he sneezed! It's funny how I discover things when I'm not looking. Anyway, he mentioned he loves covers and that these gals are known for doing pretty cool ones. However, since I'm not much of a fan of duplicates I was a little skeptical at first. I like originality, but lately I've been trying things on for size to see how well they fit. Going with the flow. Expanding my picky taste buds with ...
