Music Video of the Day: Midnight Train by Kim Wilde (2024, dir by Sean J. Vincent)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Kim Wilde’s back!

It’s been a while since I’ve been on a train after midnight.  I think the last time …. wow, was it when Erin and I went to a midnight premiere of Sex and the City 2 at the Angelika?  That was like a whole other lifetime ago.

This video does a good job of capturing what we all like to imagine riding a midnight train would be like.  The reality of my last midnight train ride is that I was feeling like crap but all of the seats were taken so I had to stand for the first three stops.  I was lucky I didn’t faint.  Maybe that’s why I stopped riding midnight trains.  Who knows, it was a while ago.

Anyway, enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Bobblehead Doll by The Folk Implosion (2024, dir by John Davis)

Me: “It’s about time someone wrote a song about those adorable bobblehead dolls!”

Smart Person: “Actually, Lisa, I think this song is about the mindless conformity of people who just nod along with whatever is happening in the world….”

Another Smart Person: “Or, it’s about the desire to live in a world where you can always be as happy and untroubled as the bobbleheads….”

Me: “Bobbleheads are so cute!  Remember when Angela gave Dwight a custom-made bobblehead on The Office and then Dwight threw it away after she wouldn’t choose between him and Andy?”

Smart Person: “Why would anyone choose Andy?”

Another Smart Person: “That was one of those Office stories that went on for too long.”

Me: “Indeed.”

Enjoy!
