    Looks like we're aiming for the 40-something white female / adult contemporary demographic - keep it going! A nation of dentist offices are depending on us!

    I think I've heard of it but RGV says:


    "It's not a prequel to Company in terms of the characters and the story. But it is a prequel to Company in spirit... it's a development of a character. That's the reason that everyone is assuming this is a prequel to Company. But in reality, the film is not connected to Company at all."

    He also says it's his tribute to the original DEEWAR and all those Big B "angry young man" films of the 70s. DEEWAR is a great flick and has this weird spacy lounge fuzz track called "I'm Falling In Love With a Stranger" that luckily IS on the vinyl soundtrack.

    I think a white woman might have sung it, to get back on topic.

    Maaaaaan, you keep claiming ignorance on classic shit that Foxy plays day in and day out... you need to change the effing dial bro! Next time you're hearing the Mariah song for the fifth time in a day, roll on up to 104.3 and get familiar with some Frankie Beverly, some Yarborough & Peebles, and some damn Bobby Caldwell. Your growner and sexier future self will thank me for it.

    um u guys ever see an artist and go "oh thats what he/she looks like" just cause your head painted the person a different way? i had no idea caldwell was white. not that it matters,but when i saw the pics of him in google i started cracking up, none the less i love "open your eyes" and "do for love"... but another funny revealing was when i was in grade two i though bobby mcferrin was latino cause i had a latino neigbour that sounded like him. this is irrelevant but anyone remember "young black teenagers"? what was the marketing of that name supposed to acheive?

    [tangent]ha ha - I think that fact that you questioned it is the right answer.

    What was the name of the project that two of those doods from YBT came out with a couple years back? There was a black and white video and the song was alright as far as I can remember.[/tangent]
