This is me being too lazy to write a real post today.
In the extended entry: the AFI Top 100 movie songs. In bold: the songs that make me want to gouge out my ears when I hear them in elevators.
(Gouge out my ears...that's not right, is it? Well, you know what I mean. And dammit, now I have these going through my head...all of them. Aurgh!!)
