I Didn't Realize...
Today, we lost Aretha Franklin, unarguably a music legend no matter what you like to listen to.
I know this is how I was first exposed to her as a young duckling, but what would you expect? I was born in Chicago, Momzerduck was almost killed by The Blues Brothers, not the band but the film crew, and everybody hates Illinois Nazis.
But did you know that today in history was also when Elvis Presley died?
Sorry for posting the AMV instead of the original version, either of the remake or the original original. But I'm still amazed by the work that must have gone into the AMV, particularly because it's 15 years old.
Also on this date?
Yep. Bela Lugosi. To think that multiple generations know him only from this song... it's a shame, it really is.
Okay, yeah, pretty weak sauce for a post, but whaddya want for nuthin', a rubber biscuit?

A sad day, but I do love that scene from the Blues Brothers, and that AMV is amazing work. Each frame of video was created individually in Photoshop.

That AMV... it's ridiculous and makes no sense at all, but the craftmanship! Yegods. (Yeah, I've still got a copy of it on my AMV storage directory too.)

I think that's the only AMV I've ever seen that used Shamanic Princess. (The chick with the tattoos and hair-wings.)

Alas, when I click on the "Direct" link on that page, I get an error message.

Mauser, you have to be a member of The Org to d/l or play vids off the site.
