Its forgettable (although strangely not annoying) but definitely follows a cookie cutter formulaic creation process. We don't normally allow music in our teaching lab, but sometimes if we put on a open work period we'll let it go if someone turns on a playlist - 90% of time is either 60-70's or 90's. College freshmen. Go figure. Edited April 24, 2023 by gehringer_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is looking down Woodward Avenue toward downtown in 1942. Great color. I'd put this view as the roof (or maybe the antenna tower) of the Maccabees building at the corner of Woodward and Warren).

That's just pop music in general, the kind seemingly synthesized in a lab in a bid to appeal to everyone. They were complaining about the very same thing during the swing era.

Biff Mayhem Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I realize that this makes me extremely juvenile and I'm okay with that. That said, I find myself laughing out loud at a lot of Jack Vale's videos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 I went to see "Damn Yankees" at the Marriott Theater in Lincolnshire, which is basically like AA ball for Broadway—it's that good. All the actors are card-holders and a few have screen credits, so the result is high-quality, tight, and generally excellent. And of course, when they sang the standard "You Gotta Have Heart" early on in the show, I, probably uniquely among the entire audience, couldn't stop thinking about the Detroit Institute of Arts. This is one of the greatest local commercials in history, perhaps for any TV market, and if you're of a certain age, you will probably have this running through your head for the rest of the day, to which I can say only: you're welcome.
