Talkin' 'Bout the Smiling Death Star Immortality Blues

EXPERIMENT #170
"TALKIN' 'BOUT THE SMILING DEATH STAR IMMORTALITY BLUES"


FILM

Star Wars (1995 "Faces" VHS).

ALBUM

Hit to Death in the Future Head by the Flaming Lips. Their major label debut. Not the one with "She Don't Use Jelly." This is the one before the one with "She Don't Use Jelly."

SYNCHS

- "Hit Me Like You Did the First Time" fades out as the escape pod carrying the droids is seen descending upon Tatooine (it looks kind of like the pod is making the same noise the guitar is making during the fade out).

- The phrase "felt the burn" in "Felt Good to Burn" coincides with the sparks that are seen when the Jawa applies the restraining bolt to R2-D2.

NOTES

Disappointing. I had my hopes up that something really wild would happen. This is the Flaming Lips, after all. No dice. Well, they have other records, I suppose.
