Precious and Few
That's the end theme song I picked for the upcoming all star cast, big disaster extravganza flick "The Big One: Earthquake '05".
See, I told my family that I was fine after they heard about the quakes last week. I had been in the office when the 4.9 hit and my bldg. pretty much rolled like a weeble wobble. I sit next to a window on the third floor and all I could think of at the time, was that if it was any worse, I'd definatetly go right out the window.
This bit of information resulted in an email from my big sister offering to sing a hopeful cheesy song like they did in the '70's disaster blockbusters [ Earthquake, Towering Inferno -my personal favorite]
---by the way, gotta love how concern in my family quickly turns into a comedy bit. bless her---
I got a phone call from big sister last Friday. She started off by singing "There's got to be a morning after..."
So if the Big One hits, and I'm in a Towering Inferno type building, I think my part will be Party Guest #8. You know, the first batch of unlucky ones that go when the Big One strikes. No hanging out with William Holden waiting to be rescued by Steve McQueen. I'll be gone before the audiences finish off their bags of popcorn. I say wait for the video.
So in the back of my mind this weekend was to search for my 'everybody's dead ' cheesy theme song.Because you know, it's important. Like bills, grocery lists, the war, and an 'everybody's dead' theme song.
I found Precious and Few by Climax, a one hit wonder band.[I'm not surprised] My god, the song is da cheese.

Heeeeyyyy....
I LOVE that song. But yeah, it is a big ole hunk of cheddar, ain't it?
I was gonna say, don't forget 'Poseidon Adventure' but your sis took care of that. Oh...did you hear they're remaking that?? Oyyyy. Nothing is sacred.

I didn't know they're remaking it. Geez, doesn't Titanic cover that?
I like Precious and Few, but it is good cheese. I'm getting to be a connesieur myself [if I spelled that word correctly]
I found a one hit wonders section on iTunes, and went nuts.
I got "The Night Chicago Died"
yup.
"Oh what a night it was! Oh what a fight it was! Glory Be!!!"
We're gonna drive Lil' One insane when she gets older. "C'mere! Stop your homework right now and go watch Flash Gordon!"
