Today’s song of the day comes from the greatest Canadian film ever, 1980’s Prom Night!
Seriously, try to get this tune out of your head! This should be the new national anthem.

Yep. Still singing it. Sorry, Canada.
Enjoy!
I’m not even a hockey fan and I’m cheering right now! 3 Days ago, the U.S. women’s hockey team defeated Canada and won a gold medal at the Winter Olympics. Today, the men’s hockey team did the same thing.
I have tears in my eyes and you better believe I have a song of the day.
Sing it!
Free Bird
If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be traveling on, now
‘Cause there’s too many places
I’ve got to see
But, if I stayed here with you, girl
Things just couldn’t be the same
‘Cause I’m as free as a bird now
And this bird, you’ll can not change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And the bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can’t change
Bye, bye, baby it’s been a sweet love
Yeah, yeah
Though this feeling I can’t change
But please don’t take it so badly
‘Cause the Lord knows
I’m to blame
But, if I stayed here with you girl
Things just couldn’t be the same
‘Cause I’m as free as a bird now
And this bird, you’ll can not change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can’t change
Lord help me, I can’t change
Lord I can’t change
Won’t you fly high, free bird, yeah?
(commence awesome triple guitar solos)
It’s true, they don’t!
Today, as we celebrate America’s success in the Winter Games and as we get ready for what will hopefully be a big 250th birthday celebration in July, a song about trucks just feels appropriate.
Enjoy!
After sharing a scene from Manhunter, there was no way I couldn’t pick this for today’s song of the day.
Today, the Shattered Lens wishes a happy birthday to Texas’s own Jennifer Love Hewitt!
Enjoy!
Since today would have been Robert Altman’s 101st birthday, it only seems right that today’s song of the day should come from his best film. In this scene from 1975’s Nashville, Keith Carradine sings I’m Easy as Altman’s camera finds each of his lovers in the audience, all convinced that Carradine is singing expressly to them.
This song won Nashville it’s only Oscar. It also made Keith, who wrote the song, the only Oscar winner amongst the fabled Carradine family.
Here’s a classic music video from X.
When I was looking for a music video to share today, I discovered that the majority of the music videos had recently been uploaded to YouTube were AI. It wasn’t just that the videos were made with AI. It was that the singers and the songs were often AI as well! That was disturbing, especially since most of the AI artists didn’t sound that different from their autotuned real-life counterparts.
Needless to say, I was happy to find this from Exene and X.
Enjoy!
Today’s song of the day is from Crystal Method. Though Keep Hope Alive was featured in the film The Replacement Killers, it was actually inspired by a 1992 speech from Jesse Jackson, which is heard throughout the song.
Today, we wish a happy birthday to the one and only Victoria Justice!
Enjoy!
