An odd little selection for your mini-cine viewing pleasure this week. The song is one of those weird ones that floated in out of nowhere some years back, redeemed by the musical talents of Bob Rice, Sidney Cox and Bart Ramsey and slipped onto the last record.
The video stock is largely culled from cigarette ads and anti-smoking PSAs. The sorting and editing was mainly done sitting in a friend's hospital room while he dies of cancer, an experience which has led to my putting down cigarettes, however unofficially. I honestly can't tell which way the irony is blowing on this one.
Tempted to offer it as a PSA to both the Tobacco Institute and the Cancer Society.
