The whole point of this stay-at-home vacation was to relax and recharge, so why do I feel more tired today than I did a week ago?
M'n'M's - I'm Tired (from a 1980 single) - I could have sworn I've posted this track already, yet a quick search of the archives turned up no evidence that I had. It's a rather nice, if slight, bit of new wave girl pop that all the cool kids seem to be into.
Eddie Cochran - Twenty Flight Rock (from Somethin' Else: The Fine Lookin' Hits of Eddie Cochran, 1998) - As featured in the 1956 sex comedy, The Girl Can't Help It. Jayne Mansfield and a roster of early rock and rollers? That's cinematic perfection in my book.
(Although the film snob in me would argue that Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter? is the apex of Frank Tashlin's work in the genre, it's hard to top a movie that, while a retread of Born Yesterday, captures Little Richard, Fats Domino, Gene Vincent, and Eddie Cochran in top form and in glorious Cinemascope.)
