Sorry I haven't posted in a while…been snowed in by the Buffalo winter! Fortunately, I had my GB tapes to keep me occupied. Hey, I listened to some of the soundtrack…great ballad by Air Supply called “I Can Wait Forever”. The other unreleased tracks rock, too: “In The Name Of Love”, “Saving The Day”! Cool, man!

Wouldn't it have been funny if the Beatles' “Sexy Sadie”, from the White Album, was on there?

Being snowed in is not fun.

Happened to me on my first visit to Disneyland.

I cried.

Or as Homer puts it:

“You made your daughter cry. Then I cried. And Maggie laughed. She's such a little trooper!”

*ahem*

Well, cut me some slack … I was seven!

I have to confess, but I always skip “I Can Wait Forever” when I listen to the GB soundtrack. In fact, I didn't even know where in the movie it was featured until I heard it on that removalist guy's walkman as he's cleaning out the GB's office on campus. I know Air Supply are Australian and as an Aussie I should be excited about Aussie artists being on the Ghostbusters soundtrack, but I can't really relate to Air Supply.

But I really love “Savin' The Day” and “In The Name Of Love”. I also dig “Magic”. That's a cool song. I think the guy who wrote that song must've been listening to a lot of Pink Floyd at the time, because it's got a really ‘spaced out’ sorta feel to it, hehe.

I think both GB1 and GB2 soundtracks are really typical of the era they were made. GB1 is full of “hair bands” like the Thompson Twins and stuff, and GB2, being from the late 80's, is full of rap and MC Hammer-esque sorta stuff. Those albums are like period pieces of the 80's
