"You Belong To The City" is a terrific song, and you've described it absolutely perfectly. Hearing it always puts me in mind of driving through L.A. in the middle of the night, alone, and not for good reasons.

"In later years, ElDan would go on to achieve such heights of FM radio creativity as the Five O'Clock Funnies and the Six-Pack Weekends."

*dog barks*

Bowie meant singalongs, and cool banana yellow suits, and throaty sexy noir vocals, and saxophones that kicked in at just the right time, and dancing, and air guitars, and spaceships, and aliens, more dancing, and oh man those high notes, and instrumentals didn't have to be boring prog rock wank sessions, and

It's OK. You can say it. We all harbor a secret love for Dancing In The Street.

Holy fuck, for real? I never even met the man and I was a fucking mess when I heard. I can't imagine having my reaction broadcast to millions and still having to be locked in a house and on camera while I process the next few days. That is… wow.

I also saw him on the Reality tour in Phoenix, the first and only time I saw him. I remember being struck by how down-to-earth he was; no fancy personas or overblown stage theatrics. A black jacket, jeans, and an amazing band. Laughing, joking, and being so humble and appreciative of the crowd; it almost seemed silly

I can hear the nation

That song came on in the gym today as I was on the treadmill and I broke the fuck down.

Yeah, I really thought they were going to use Ben Urich as a common character through all the Netflix series to connect them a little bit. Disappointed to see him go, but I applaud the risk the show took in killing him off.

My mom raised me on a steady diet of the Stones, Bowie, Zevon, Dylan and the Boss - and I have no complaints whatsoever, even if humming "Tangled Up In Blue" made me the uncoolest kid in all of 7th grade.

Some good choices here, even if I thought Her Story ended up being more tedium than compelling by the end.

I distinctly remember thinking E1 was "ok", but I had stupid high hopes for Episode 2. By the time E3 rolled around, I was filled with apathy that I wouldn't admit to anyone else.

Terry Crews doing the Seven Samurai thing where the other six are all his own split personalities, and the townsfolk and outlaws keep wondering why he's talking to himself the whole time? I would watch that, which gives it the edge over The Ridiculous Six.

No, it definitely wasn't Rose - I want to say they were fairly generic, no-name anchors (though they may be famous now, I suppose).

[makes Donald Sutherland face, points and screeches at Mr. Threepwood]

I never watched NBC News Overnight, but speaking of weirdly smart late night newscasts, does anyone remember the ABC latenight/early morning news show? The name escapes me, but I remember happening upon it one night flipping around, and it was terrific. That thing was almost like a pre-Daily Show, with lots of snark,

I'm gonna take a crack at the pre-Google translated version here:

Agreed. I could watch "Attack of The The Eye Creatures" every day for the rest of my life.
