There is always a really good song or two on every record but their last great one for me was All That We Let In, from 2004. A dozen or so incredibly great songs on that one. And for me their best ever is Rites of Passage, which is where you find "Galileo" among so many other moments of greatness.

I remember when Hey Jude was a new song on the radio (I was like 6) and even then I knew I was hearing something totally different from all the other stuff. I'll never forget it.

I can't like this enough times

"[T]here is no reason to believe otherwise." Right you are, sir.

Saw this twice in a row on a recent NY visit and just popped for closing night tickets. Which might be too much "too much tuna" but I'm hooked on these two.

How did I miss this? I clearly need to read up.

Lynch and Nance!

You started out on top! Can't wait to read what's next.

There is another one of these for De Palma and Lithgow.

Both also had great musical scores (Sakamoto and Morricone) which more than once has been the saving grace of a lesser De Palma joint.

Tarantino and Sam Jackson?

Alan Alda's "Sweet Liberty" is a largely forgotten parody of Hollywood filmmakers taking over a small town, with some pretty funny dialog and a charming (final) supporting role for Lillian Gish as Alda's mom.

As musically fascinating as anything he ever wrote

Christopher Reeve, Superman
Heath Ledger, The Joker

And Zeroes from the same record

Time Will Crawl holds a special place in my heart for some reason, at least partially because of his own background harmony vocals and those spaced out lyrics

Or Carrie!

Odenkirk might as well have dropped the mic after he gave the most heartbreakingly honest quote in the whole film, "With Chris, there’s a limit to how wonderful it is to me. And that limit is when you kill yourself with drugs and alcohol. That’s when it stops being so fucking magical."

So sad about this. He was the very best.
