      +kutzbill I know Kevin & Neal through mutual friends. What it comes down to: Is it a good song? I've done "Riding The Storm Out" acoustically (with Kevin's permission). A good song is a good song no matter how it's performed.
      On the "Buiding Bridges" tour Kevin and I chatted for about 20 minutes about issues like this. Most of the Illinois Groups (REO, Cheap Trick, Ides of March, Cryan Shames, Styx, Off Broadway, et al) have been very supportive of my origs. The one thing they all said was, "If you're going to do one of our tracks, tell people to but the album."
      Always can do!

    Another neat thing I noticed is that right at about 2:00, Jimmy (the lead singer) points at Guy (the drummer) and then you can hear him yell, "You were right!" (referring to Guy's spur of the moment decision to speed up the tempo at the talent show earlier).

    Couple things I love about this scene;
    1. At 1:20 the bass player bangs on the speaker at the exact same part where the claps and drums start/increase and the music gets much louder. Great synchronization!
    2) As soon as they each hear the song on the radio, nothing else in the world matters and they drop what they’re doing to celebrate (i.e. parking the car in the middle of the road with the passenger door not closed)
    This might be the best personification of joy I’ve ever seen on screen. Can’t help but smile for them every time I see this scene.

    I grew up in Louisville, Kentucky. In the 60's, our local bands were heroes. They played at teen clubs and dances, and their records (very difficult to find today) topped our local AM charts. They rarely broke the national Top 100, but we did not care. This was "Louisville's Own" music. This moment in this film makes the memory of that rush back to me.

    Whoever did the location and props in this movie hit the nail on the head. Looking at the appliance store brought me back to the old Western Auto in my hometown in South Texas. That huge beautiful cabinet stereo was spot on because we had a Montgomery Wards Airline in our living room. It was at least 6 feet long!! and those little transister radios with the single earplug hit home to me. I had one and it brought the world of the Beatles, the DC Five and the Stones into MY world.

    It's always amazed me that great songwriters can simply come up with a song. They had an idea for a movie. They needed a song. It had to be a catchy song or the whole movie would fall flat. To say they succeeded would be an understatement. It is a perfect song with so much likeability that it instantly grabbed the audience, has continued to grab audiences, and I expect will grab audiences for decades to come. It has everything one would expect in a "hit." It certainly didn't hurt that the movie was so well done.

    I read an interview where Steve Zahn (who played Lenny) said that when they filmed the part where they start skipping in a circle at around 1:59, he felt that it would look stupid. However, when he watched the finished movie, he realized that it was perfect; it captured the right sense of joy. And I agree with him.

Gives me chills. I've directed TV productions of live, mostly local music and I can say the euphoria runs both ways... it hits us as it does the audience! The increased bass when the big radio is turned on, the transformers sending out the signal....all of that. The TV scene in the movie reminds me of how it's done today and where it got its start!
