Hump Day & Chill

Hola Minions, do I have the perfect Hump Day & Chill recommend. Yesterday I watched the Netflix documentary Pamela, A Love Story about icon Pamela Anderson. 

The tagline sums the it all up perfectly: She defined a decade. Now she will define herself.

I have interviewed and hung out with Pamela and this is my takeaway from it:

"This documentary is so Pam, she is a lovely person with no pretense. Really nice."

Seriously you should watch it, you will come away with my take on her. I remember telling people how great she was and them giving me a perplexed look. Then one day I was at a party and an acquaintance of mine had guest starred on her sitcom Stacked and mentioned how awesome she is. We swapped Pam stories and he said everyone always looks at him puzzled as well when he speaks fondly of her as well. It was nice to meet someone who knows and understands.

Well, what are you waiting for?! You have a documentary to Hump Day & Chill too!!!

NBD aka National Backwards Day

Who's That Girl?
Taylor Swift

Today is National Backwards Day and it's amazing the stuff you find when you Google things that make you go reverse. I found out that Taylor Swift sometimes hikes backwards. She's been spotted in Los Angeles doing this many a time. 

Her explanation? Here it is: “I saw the guy with the camera and wasn’t in the mood so I hiked the whole trail backwards and my security told me when to make turns."

Sounds reasonable enough to moi, hey if you aren't in the mood...

Thus let's celebrate the day and bend it like Taylor, you know you wanna try walking backwards bad!!!

Good Vibes Only

Farrah Fawcett & Jenny Agutter 

Today I need Good Vibes Only please, Thank You!!! Thus when I came across this photo of Farrah Fawcett and Jenny Agutter on the set of the 1976 movie Logan's Run, well it gave me all the feels that I need to get me through the day!!!

Not only did I see this movie in theaters when it first came out, I was a fan of Farrah's (who wasn't? She was a once in a lifetime beauty and star.)

The two of them look like they were having such a good time in this moment and you can feel the positive energy flowing between them towards one another.

So channel your inner Farrah & Jenny today Minions.

It's all about Good Vibes!

Giant

"A critical and box-office success, “Giant” earned ten Academy Award nominations (winning one), and set the record as Warner Brothers’ highest grossing film ever (a record it held until the late 1970s). Decades later, the American Film Institute (AFI) named it the 82nd Greatest American Movie of All-Time. This mighty film is one you certainly don’t want to miss." - Jay Jacobson

I agree with this 100% I have seen it and you truly don't want to miss it. Head on over to my buddy Jay Jacobson's Classic Movie Blog for his in depth thoughts & facts on this masterpiece of cinema.

"Hopelessly Devoted To You"

 AUSTRALIA DAY ANNOUNCEMENT! THE ORION EXPERIENCE COVERS “HOPELESSLY DEVOTED TO YOU” BY OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN’S POWERHOUSE BALLAD FROM GREASE SOUNDTRACK

 

Latest Single From Upcoming Covers Record CosmiCovers, Pays Homage to Newton-John and Fellow Australian Producer John Farrar with Reworked Upbeat Duet Single Set for February 24

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

The Orion Experience is excited to announce, on Australia Day no less, the release of their first single of 2023, a cover of  Olivia Newton-John’s “Hopelessly Devoted to You” from the motion picture Grease. Click here to presave the track upon release Friday February 24th.

This latest single from The Orion Experience’s (T.O.E.) upcoming album of cover songs, CosmiCovers pays homage to Olivia Newton-John. So many of T.O.E.’s musical influences come from the land down under, it only seemed right to celebrate the uniqueness of Aussie pop by covering this track. Reimagined with a Motown groove, band members Linda XO and Orion Simprini worked out Stevie Wonder inspired melodies, with a Jackson 5-like rhythm section. Lead guitar player, Reef Roxx laid down an Afro-Cuban style lick that is impossible not to dance to. Like all great cover songs, The Orion Experience wanted to pay tribute to the original work, written by legendary Australian producer John Farrar, while adding their own distinct style.

We challenge all you Rydell High School T-Birds to a drag race at Thunder Road if this cover doesn’t get you on the dance floor for Vince Fontaine’s National Bandstand.

Michael's Musings

Bought Myself  Some Flowers
Michael Shinafelt

Flowers by Miley Cyrus has been my earworm since it dropped. Honestly it's one of the best pop songs ever and propels Ms. Cyrus to even bigger heights than the considerable ones she has already scaled, and that's saying something!

Anyway I don't think I need to carry on further about it, nuff said, it's time to nip the topic in the bud (pun intended.)

Visited my family in WA State for 4 days, it was lovely spending time with them and a much needed rest as well

HBD to Chucky creator Don Mancini who just turned 60!!!
