Advantages: perfect little gem of a film Disadvantages: none
?I?d try to comprehend you but I got a dyslexic heart??
Singles, Cameron Crowe?s 1992 tale of the twentysomething search for love in Seattle, is one of my all-time favourite films. This sweet, episodic mix of neatly interlinking storylines is very human, very funny and has probably the best soundtrack of any film in that decade (yes, that includes Pulp Fiction).
?How did this stuff get so complicated? I don?t know.?
The storyline strands are relatively few, and this is why the film continues to be coherent and believable. Poor Linda has been dumped on more times than she cares to remember, so is in no mood to meet Steve, who might just be the love of her life. Steve?s ex Janet is, meanwhile, in love with her neighbour in the block of ?singles? in which they live, but Cliff is just too wrapped up in his music to give a damn ...

Advantages: Funny, good characters Disadvantages: None
King of Queens is an American sitcom set in New York. The King in question is Doug Heffernan and the Queens they relate to is actually the suburb of New York he lives in with his wife Carrie. I think this title is a really clever play on words and sets the scene for quite a funny sitcom in my opinion.
Doug and Carrie are the main couple in this sitcom and it?s really them that the whole show revolves around. They have a nice relationship but bicker like most couples and they really play on each others stereotypes to get the laughs out of the audience. For example Doug is rather fat and so they definitely play this up on the show. He is generally always eating my Carrie facilitates this by buying him or making him his favourite foods. Doug is played by the very funny Kevin James who has been in movies such as Hitch, I Now Pronounce You ...
Advantages: It's aimed more at newbies to Queen rather than die hard fans. It's still awesome though Disadvantages: There's no point for diehard fans to get this, nothing new.
track was so famous and without this it probably wouldn?t have been the song we know and love today is because Michael Jackson told Brian May and the rest of the band to release it as a single. I love this song, like Radio Ga Ga, it?s not my favourite track, I love the fact it sounds almost acapella and Mercury?s voice again like always is completely faultless with no problems at all.
Rating: 6/10 (A great track from the wonderful band, one of their classics, it?s not one of their best however)
Track 5: DFS Advert
Aka: I Want It All
This is to see how many people notice this, I?m afraid this song was one of my favourites and now every time I hear it I see the blooming DFS. It is still one of the best and strongest tracks from the band, even with the advert running through my mind. Like Bohemian Rhapsody which is one of Queen?s ...
