.: Mama Movies :.

Finally saw Knocked Up a few days ago... and JUST saw Juno.

Two of the best movies I've seen in a long long while are both about out of wedlock pregnancies. Go figure. Both hilarious. Both, so well written, directed and acted.

But Juno has the better soundtrack. I know its originally a Carpenters song but I prefer this version:

Superstar - Sonic Youth


long ago
and oh so far away
I fell in love with you
before the second show
your guitar
it sounds so sweet and clear
but you're not really there
it's just the radio

don't you remember you told me you love me baby
you said you'd be coming back this way again baby
baby baby baby baby oh baby
I love you, I really do

loneliness, is such a sad affair
and I can hardly wait
to be with you again
what to say
to make you come again
come back to me again
and play your sad guitar

don't you remember you told me you love me baby
you said you'd be coming back this way again baby
baby baby baby baby oh baby
I love you, I really do

don't you remember you told me you love me baby
you said you'd be coming back this way again baby
baby baby baby baby oh baby
I love you, I really do

Wheee!!! Ed just forwarded me the script...I'll be quoting the whole damn movie...FORVER!

"Mark has strapped on the Les Paul and is playing and singing.
“Doll Parts” by Hole.

JUNO AND MARK
(quietly singing together)
“Yeah, they really want you... they
really want you... they really do.”
Building together.

JUNO AND MARK
(singing together and
connecting)
Yeah, they really want you... they
really want you... and I do to.
(both blush)"

PS that song is on RockBand
