Kenny Loggins. His soundtrack work is like magic. You can't deny it. You know you don't flip the dial when "Danger Zone" comes on the radio. Kenny is one reason why I'm excited about the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Not only does it feature (writing & starring) Jason Segel, its got Kenny's "I'm Alright". As for Jason Segel, he played Nick the bumbling stoner musician in Freaks & Geeks...remember "Lady L"?! If you're not a fan, I feel sorry for you. It really was the best television show of all time. PS: Jason is currently writing a Muppet movie. Can you dig that?
In (very) related news, I think I'm more excited about Pineapple Express (NSFW). Seth Rogen & James Franco play...what else...stoners! The icing on the cake is that Seth signed on Huey Lewis to write a song ala "The Power of Love" for the movie. Anyone who tips their hat to Back to the Future is a friend of mine. Isn't it about time for a Huey comeback? Doesn't popular culture work in 20 year cycles? Will Lil Mama be sampling "Workin' For a Livin'"? Only time will tell.
