Hey Tumblr…
Want a comedy that takes on stereotypes about masculinity and femininity and spends two hours subverting all your expectations? That has a great female character who is repeatedly learning the lesson to not frame your life by the men in it?
Or that sets up one long “No homo” joke only to turn that entire concept on its head at the end of the movie in one of the greatest cinematic jokes ever put on screen? (Don’t take that from me, either. The American Film Institute agrees and named that specific joke the 48th greatest movie line of all time, and the film the number one comedy of all time!)
That movie is called Some Like it Hot. And it was made in freakin’ 1959! (In fact, it put the final nail in the coffin of the restrictive Hays Code in place at the time).
“She’s a Rainbow” - The Rolling Stones -
1967, Their Satanic Majesties Request.
Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, “She’s a Rainbow” was recorded on 18 May 1967. Perhaps the bands’s “prettiest and most uncharacteristic song,” it features rich lyricism, vibrant piano by Nicky Hopkins and Brian Jones’ use of the mellotron.
