How old is this song!? I still will wake up mornings with it in my head. Which, if you're going to want to spring out of bed, is a great song to get you going. I wasn't big into the Damned at all, either. But somehow I ended up with this album (actual vinyl!) which I seem to recall having pigs and strawberries on the cover, and this song lodged itself into my brain for all eternity. Crazy. That's some sort of power: to have all kinds of people walking around singing(and waking up to) words that you wrote.
I can picture scenes in my head that this song, and lots and lots of others, would be perfect for in a movie. I mean dead-on, for whatever type of emotional effect you want. I would love to make a movie. I study the technical/production qualities of movies when I watch them as much as the storyline, settings, acting techniques and writing and everything else. I'm a harsh critic. I was once a media arts major, before switching to English, and it was fascinating. You really have to be visionary to make a movie. Even the crappiest of them involve a big vision and a lot of work by a lot of people. Who's financing these things is beyond me, but more movies get made that shouldn't than do. And MST3k was born.
Along those lines, I'm particular about my audio and video as well, and have made a promise to only post the best quality of both on this site. Only HQ and no cell-phone garbage, unless it's of an actual alien. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but as with movies, there are far more videos out there that shouldn't be than are. Sometimes it takes a lot of weeding.
