There are a heap of live versions floating around that are perhaps better than this version except I couldn’t find one with the orchestra in the introduction. This song has been used in a few soundtracks and more recently in the opening of the first episode of Californication.

I saw Enrique Iglesias perform this on an awards show and went out and bought the album Vivir because of the song. This was one of the songs that helped propel his career even further.

Another band I have no idea how I ended up following. Guess it was just that they play really great music and their live DVD travels around the world with me.

Great British band and yet another with some weird hairstyles. Useless piece of information is Lol Tolhurst’s brother taught at one of the schools I attended.

Any clip with Michelle Pfeiffer in it will get my vote. I remember have the soundtrack to Dangerous Minds blaring in the car when I pulled into a country town one day. More than a few people looked at me when I pulled up. Oh well.

Bit of a one hit wonder type of band although I like the second song on the album just as much. It is called Amnesia. There is also a good quote in the album notes and goes along the lines of, “don’t make my lack of seriousnesss make you think this isn’t serious”. I love it.

This song is in the film Some Kind Of Wonderful and it’s where I first heard it played. I can’t believe the hair even if it was the mid 80s, the style was insane.

Didn’t realise this was Britney Spears when I first heard the song. Not a fan of her music although this one is worth a listen or two. Good film clip also featuring the actor Steven Dorff.

“In the end, nobody wins unless everybody wins.” If only more people lived by these words then the world might be a much nicer place.

So many great songs from the Boss and tough tom come up with my favourite, although this one might be on top if forced to come up with one.

Storm Front was the album this song was on and I still remember it was the first CD I bought when I moved from the old cassette format. Simple song that works.
