I always get that film confused with Tommy Boy, but yeah, I remember the scene. I think that's one the great joys of owning a tuner or having cable radio--enjoying songs we wouldn't otherwise play through our spiffy hi-fis. Who knows how many times I've been spinning along the dial and stopped on a popular, often cheesy, tune from the 70's or 80's I never really considered, or wanted to be caught, listening to :-)It's funny what you say about Mariah Carey... I think Beyonce Knowles and Christina Aguilera are two others: gifted singers who I feel have been wasting their talent on cheap, forgetable songs and music. I can't say it's exactly a "shame" because that crap has also made them quite wealthy. Oh well, good for them... but too bad for music.
