Oh, the movie never ends / It goes on and on and on and on

Among the myriad feelings I’m feeling today is a sense of total vindication of my unironic love for Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” one of the best rock songs ever, one of those songs so perfect that feels like it was beamed in from another plane of existence and merely channeled by the band that recorded it. I’ve said for years that it’s the equal in intent, execution, and effect of “Transmission” by Joy Division, and people look at me like I’m crazy. No more, Butchie. No more.

    Not a big fan of that song (or of Journey, for that matter), but it makes sense that Tony would’ve made it a part of his personal soundtrack – much like Hesh surrounded himself with doo-wop and old r-&-b. I did like the use of Little Feat’s “All That You Dream” just before the show’s big closing number, though . . .
