David Gates, "Goodbye Girl"

My wife and I watched Neil Simon's "The Goodbye Girl" last night.  It's pretty much like any other movie from the '70s that takes place in New York City, but Richard Dreyfuss (who earned an Oscar for the role) and Marsha Mason were both great, so there's that.  And then in the final credits, they whip this song out--sung by David Gates of the group Bread.  Because there's really no music video for this song, here's a version that someone posted on YouTube with clips from the movie, so enjoy:

Journey, "Separate Ways"

How can a band this huge in the '80s make a video this bad?  Perhaps I've answered my own question.

Dewey Cox as Bob Dylan in "Walk Hard"

There aren't many funny moments in "Walk Hard," but the funny moments are hilarious, and this is one of them. When I can actually understand what Bob Dylan is saying, most of it still doesn't make much sense.  "You guys are idiots... This song is very deep."  Awesome.
