Hang on to your life…
sade – hang on to your love (mp3)
after a lazy evening in front of the box the other night, i ended up stumbling upon the simon pegg/edgar wright movie ‘shaun of the dead’. a perfectly good movie i hear you say - i say, agreed. however, whilst watching, my ears suddenly picked up when the records v’s zombie scene came on the screen. the scene in question is where shaun and his mate, ed, are in the back garden flicking through his treasured record collection being extremely particular as to which records to throw at the approaching zombies…
in terms of events, this is how it goes…new order’s blue monday gets launched by accident (first pressing of course),stone roses lp gets saved, some generic soundtrack lp gets launched, and then sade, the diamond life lp gets pulled from the box. your typical alpha male would quaff at the record, pick it up and then automatically lock and load, but personally, this is where i would have put the lp back in the box, give an acknowledged nod to the ‘hang on to your love’ track and then delve into the record box for another one. it would seem however, that shaun is your average macho man. after some flippant questioning from ed, shaun dismisses the record as being his ex girlfriends and quickly attempts another head shot on the zombies…silly mistake, you decide?
