| I think we can get some great future titles from the soundtrack listings. I almost went with something about the magic pin but couldn't think of something creative. __________________ | |||

| Master Fan   |  Thanks for the new thread, Steph.  I think the song names would make great future thread titles. Loving the current choice, especially.  __________________ You're pins - I'm needles - Let's play... | |||

| Fan Forum's Finest  | I don't get what the song is about, but I love it. And I love how Curt performs it. __________________ "Our lives shouldn't be measured by how much money we make or by how well known we are, but by how much fulfillment we can find in our everyday existence." ~ Ewan McGregor | |||

| Master Fan | We'll have to ask Iggy Pop what the song's about.  I think it's about being in the spotlight, but who knows. __________________ You're pins - I'm needles - Let's play... | |||

| That sounds plausible, about being in the spotlight. Though I only know the chorus  __________________ | |||

| Fan Forum's Finest | being in the spotlight makes total sense. IDK if Iggy would know what it's about since he was most likely high when writing it. here's the lyrics Lord See that cat Yeah I do mean you See that cat Yeah I do mean you She got a TV eye on me She got a TV eye She got a TV eye on me, oh See that cat Down on her back See that cat Down on her back She got a TV eye on me She got a TV eye She got a TV eye on me, oh See that cat Yeah I love her so see that cat Yeah I love her so She got a TV eye on me She got a TV eye She got a TV eye on me, oh Right on, right on, right on See that cat Yeah I love her so see that cat Yeah I love her so She got a TV eye on me She got a TV eye She got a TV eye on me, oh __________________ "Our lives shouldn't be measured by how much money we make or by how well known we are, but by how much fulfillment we can find in our everyday existence." ~ Ewan McGregor | |||

| Master Fan | If "total sense" means "maybe a little sense" then I agree.  I've got my TV Eye on Ewan.  __________________ You're pins - I'm needles - Let's play... | |||

| Yea, not much to the lyrics is there. Can't call it poetic. I guess it is about being in the spotlight and Loving it. We all got a TV Eye on Ewan __________________ | |||

| Fan Forum's Finest | somehow Iggy made a song that doesn't really get annoying despite the repeated lyrics. __________________ "Our lives shouldn't be measured by how much money we make or by how well known we are, but by how much fulfillment we can find in our everyday existence." ~ Ewan McGregor | |||

| Maybe cause it is hard to understand what he is singing in the first place.  __________________ | |||

| Master Fan | I'd say that Curt's version of the song really had nothing to do with the singing either.  __________________ You're pins - I'm needles - Let's play... | |||
