I'm trying to come of with the name of a piece of music. I have very little to describe it. I heard it being played on a classical station the other day, but it's not classical music, I don't think. It's weird, creepy, dream like music. I believe it was used in a funny commercial in the last couple of years. I think the people are lethargic in the commercial. It's dream like music. A creepy dream. If I could come up with the commercial, I could come up with the music. HELP ME!!!

Now you've got me curious about the BBC's "The Office". When Tim and Dawn(sp) finally get together, they play a cover version of some song. I knew it at one time, but forget what it was.

Now I can't find it.

Beautiful. Like the E-cola version of the Who's "Let my love open the door" in Jersey Girl. A version I had never heard, but found it more beautiful than the original.

I’m not familiar with the series, but I found this with some background music:

Is this the E. Cola mix of Peter Townshend’s Let My Love open the door that you are speaking of?

A few years ago, on a slow news night, a Freeper named Foucault’s Pendulum posted a thread titled “Am I Logged In?”

His text was something simple like, “Just checking.”

The thread accumulated something like 1500 responses in a day.

So you have a ways to go.

The thread became part of Freeper lore, but was unfortunately lost when FreeRepublic made some kind of change in the way threads were archived.

Yea and about half of the responses are from me...so that doesn't really count, does it? That's so sad his thread got lost. A classic. Would have like to have seen it.

LOL!

I’m learning all kinds of trivia today:

Bryan Ferry - Help Me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2VgnYOr5m4

The Fly (1986 film)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fly_%281986_film%29

The producers also commissioned musician Bryan Ferry to record a song for the film for promotional purposes. The resulting track was entitled “Help Me”. A music video was made for the song, and footage from the film was featured heavily in it. Cronenberg admitted to liking the song, but felt that it was inappropriate to the film itself. Brooks and Cornfeld originally wanted to play the song over the closing credits, but after Cronenberg screened it for them they agreed with the director that it did not mesh with the movie. As a result, the song is featured only briefly in the film, in the background during the scene where Brundle challenges Marky in the bar. “Help Me” quickly disappeared and became extremely rare, as it was not included on the film’s soundtrack release. It resurfaced in 1993 on the Roxy Music/Bryan Ferry compact disc Ultimate Collection.[7]
