Who wants to live forever - Queen

=========================================

There must be an echo on the Forum ;-)

[Keef]

I feel that this is a good time to point out that "Who wants to live forever" was written for one of the best films of the 80s... Highlander!

Who could forget the moving scene when Heather (good scottish name that) was aging whilst Connor stayed young, and he stayed with her til she died an old lady. *wipes tear from eye*

There can be only one! >:D<

[Keef]

Shame about Sean Connery playing a Spaniard, the accent just wasn't convincing... In fact it was a lot like his Russian in "Hunt for red october" ;-)

[Jah Lush]

Into My Arms - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds.

[mockney piers]

Not to mention his ...mmm... aussie accent in ..err.. zardoz.

And to think, if it wasn't for Highlander we'd never have had the superlative Highlander II The Quickening (named after the equally riveting accountancy package), or even the unfathomable Highlander III The Sorcerer, or the quite simply unmatchabley clich?d Highlander IV ironically named Endgame, or even the as yet unreleased Highlander V The Source.

Or Highlander the Series (of terrible programmes) or Highlander The Raven, beggaring belief by being even worse than all of the above (other than Highlander IV of course).

All of this from an extended Queen video. Amazing really.

[Keef]

Ha, yep the rest of the films were shockers (well the ones I saw, 2 & 3), and I never even watched the series. The first film was great though! I loved that big fella who played the bad guy (and got to kill Sean) (6)

[mockney piers]

Actually I had a secret soft spot for the series for reasons I don't think I'll ever understand, silly but watchable late night tv. The rest of it was truly woeful however, and if ANYONE can make sense of Highlander II I'll eat my hat.

[Keef]

Was that the one where he'd gotten old and then got young again? :-S

[mockney piers]

Or something...and the pointless shield in the sky, and the terrible nonsensical editing. Reminded me of Metro with Eddy Murphy for that, editing so bad, scenes just had no context and made no sense.

Aaanyway

Already know mine, and my mates are primed to ensure it happens. 'There goes my Soldier Girl' by the Polyphonic Spree with choristers robes under everyone's seats ready to sway along.
