Each week, the pop culture website Pop-A-Looza shares some posts from my vast 'n' captivating Boppin' (Like The Hip Folks Do) archives. The latest shared post is a look at a snappy quintet of soundtrack tunes, "5 GREAT MOVIE SONGS! (from films I either didn't like or never saw)."
This piece was originally written for a cool site called Love Letters 2 Rock N Roll. The site appears to be dormant--there have been no posts there since February--but I certainly hope it returns at some point, and I wish its proprietors nothing but the best in these times of trouble. I dig the sheer enthusiasm that fuels Love Letters 2 Rock N Roll, and I've been delighted to lend the site some of my own ramblin' rumblings in the past. I wrote a little bit about LL2RnR here, and the list o' links below provides handy und dandy access to posts that Boppin' (Like The Hip Folks Do) has shared with Love Letters 2 Rock N Roll:
THE MONKEES: Welcome To The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame
A Letter To My 17-Year-Old Self
