Someone commented recently on how crazy we get if we go out without
our cell phones, the point being that not so long ago we lived without
them and didn't know we were deprived. In a similar way, I try to
remember what it was like before I had access to answers to all my
questions thanks to sites like
IMDB. Including questions I'd
never have thought to ask. Like a recent episode of a new comedy
called How I Met Your Mother, which used a sweet and
melancholy song called
Inside
of Love to give the story a level of wistfulness and pathos the
writers and the actors couldn't pull off. What's fortunate is that a
poster to the
Television Without
Pity website identified the song and artist. Much as I hate to
say it, maybe The WB has the right idea in the way they shill the
music they use on their shows before the closing credits. At least if
the show's no good we can enjoy the music again.
