I gotta admit, of all the tv-teen-queens-who-wanted-to-be-singers, Jennifer Love Hewitt was my favorite.

 

One of the things I really get out of doing music recs is finding songs from that era that I never heard before, that are actually really good songs. "Lately" by Allure is one of them. Beautiful song, I think.

My Sharona was perfect. The Knack...bad boys of the 1980s. Perfect.

 

Not to mention the song had a revival in 1994, which was still somewhat recent to the timeline of the story. It's become sort of a timeless song, I think.

Jeremy, you nailed it with these.

The Shania Twain song....I remember Amy Poehler using that in an SNL skit.

Practice Footage of Gold Medalist Ilia Kulik at the 1998 Nagano Olympics

 

 

JJ has about two years to get to this level if he wants to be at the '02 Olympics. We'll see if that happens. Although it's generally rare to be 16 and at the Olympic Level for men's figure skating, apparently. '06 is more likely.

"This Must Be the Place" by the Talking Heads

 

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=vf2s7UHUrBw

 

I love "This Must Be the Place" by the Talking Heads, although I'm not particularly fond of this version. I always associate it with the movie "Wall Street," a chorus at the height of Charlie Sheen's success.

[methodwriter85]

I picked it because that scene with the apartment in Wall Street seems like such a quintessential Yuppie cultural touchstone, which fits in with JP wanting to attract Yuppies to Claremont with loft houses and the like.

[methodwriter85]
