Music Video of the Day: Weapon of Choice by Fatboy Slim (2001, dir by Spike Jonze)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Val wrote about this music video way back in 2016.  I’m sharing it again because today is Christopher Walken’s 82nd birthday!  Walken trained as a dancer before going into acting and he gets to show off more than a few moves in this video.

Walken also trained as a lion tamer before he went into acting.  I guess he’s a little bit old to play a lion tamer now but still, that’s something I would have liked to have seen.

Enjoy!

Song of the Day: Foggy Mountain Breakdown by Earl Scruggs and Friends

Since today is Warren Beatty’s birthday, it seems appropriate that today’s song of the day should be one that featured in one of Beatty’s best-known films, Bonnie and Clyde.

And yes, that is Paul Shaffer on piano and Steve Martin playing banjo with Earl Scruggs and Friends.

 

Song of the Day: Battle Without Honor or Humanity by Tomoyasu Hotei

Today’s song of the day was not specifically written for the Kill Bill soundtrack but that’s still the film that I’ll always associate it with.  Here to help us celebrate Quentin Tarantino’s birthday, it’s Tomoyasu Hotei and Battle Without Honor or Humanity.
