American Prince
That sounds awesome. Especially after reading the imdb page, which says it's based on a "lost" Scorsese documentary.

I'm not sure. I caught The Honeymoon Killers there a month or two ago, and it's not on there now. Month-by-month, maybe.
How can you pick just one Anal Cunt song? Impossible.
A big hell yeah for 'Cathy's Clown'.
I think the best Band song is 'Across the Great Divide', but my favourite has to be 'Ferdinand the Impostor' on the Big Pink outtakes. It has such a gorgeous melody, and Danko's voice is gentle and lilting, it damn near makes me nod out. And it speaks to the absolute brilliance of The Band that this song didn't even…
O!PT for me is the song that he best rides the fence between utter theatrics and balls-out rocking. Plus, I think it's his catchiest chorus.
White Light/White Heat is definitely my favourite VU album, but 'Foggy Notion' is my favourite VU song.
'And It Stoned Me', is right at the top. Followed by 'Redwood Tree' and 'Starting a New Life'.
My favourite Neil Young song is 'Barstool Blues'. Although, I've been singing 'Powderfinger in the shower everyday for the past few weeks, for some reason.
Another shout-out for 'Jesus, etc.' That's the song that I played for my mum that got her hooked on Wilco.
I was just listening to Bridge Over Troubled Water yesterday while driving to work, and was knocked out by how brilliant it is. I've always thought 'The Only Living Boy in New York' was the best thing they did, but I kind of wrote off that album as schmaltzy. But goddam if 'The Boxer' isn't amazing as hell. (I…
Despite my name, I think 'Caribou' is my favourite Pixies song.
Fuck yes to 'Tangerine'. And 'Down by the Seaside' has always been a favourite. But if I was talking to some hardcase Zeppelin fan, I would say 'When the Levees Break'.
Sweet picks, JVS. For me, it's definitely 'Oh! You Pretty Things' for Bowie. (it's the crux of my many Brit-pop through the ages compilations.)
Favourite Richman song: Pablo Picasso.
I disagree, Secret Agent. Satisfaction isn't in my top 100. It's okay, and from a historical POV, it's maybe their most important, but putting it beside their big songs from the day, it pales in comparison, IMO. I mean, I listen to Jumping Jack Flash and then listen to Satisfaction, and one seems a masterpiece and…
That's my favourite song, too. The best lyrics to any song I've ever heard.
Torn & Frayed. I think Wazoo said it up there, but he is totally right. It's more of an overall feeling/atmosphere than a real solid song, but there has been no time in the history of me or listening that I have not melted hearing it.
I GOT THESE CHEEEEEESEBURGERS… I'LL SUCK YO DIIIICK.
phel- Unless, of course, you run into a homeless person. And then it's all hands on neck, yeah?
