It's easy to find inspiration in a place that forces you to find it. Singapore was a treat for the senses. Around every corner a new experience was waiting to be discovered, talked about, and shared. We really had no idea what we were in for when we set out.
This cute kid decided to dress up as Gumby for Halloween, resulting in one of my favorite America's Funniest Home Video clips. I think we all have memories of childhood costumes that made us somewhat immoble. I recall being a red crayon in grade one and not being able to sit down. Anyway, he's Gumby! Happy Halloween!
Inspired Singles Issue 11: Science Fiction/Double Feature by Richard O'Brien
This staple of Halloween mixes is a lyrical history lesson cleverly showcasing some really crazy B movies. From Flash Gordon to Forbidden Planet to Doctor X, there are a surprisingly large amount of character and plot references from projects not unlike Rocky Horror.
Science Fiction/Double Feature is the title track of the Rocky Horror Picture Show and has been made iconic not just because of its association with the movie and stage show, but because of Patricia Quinn's red lips. Now that's how you lip sync!
It's a tune that instantly reminds me of all those childhood Halloweens and the late nights after trick or treating. It's funny, it's weird, it's a classic.
