Just watched 'The Wedding Guest' (2018) - Camel's 'Mystic Queen' is played - quite extensively - at key moment in film. Given the particular sequence is set in Pakistan, it did not seem incongruous!

I'm currently trying to brush up on and improve my English grammar by taking an online course and while watching the video on using quotations for titles one of the instructors mentioned that Free Hand by Gentle Giant is one of his favorite albums and used the song "on reflection" as an example of when to use quotation marks in a title. That definitely took me by surprise. In a previous lesson on italics he mentioned the album Hounds of Love by Kate Bush.

Was strolling by the bar of a private club near Malibu, Calif. yesterday when I heard the song Wish You Were Here. Sure, now an FM staple, but the song and the venue were at odds with each other. Also was watching a TCM presentation of the '80s Brit crime film Mona Lisa and Genesis' In Too Deep in nearly its entirety was used during a key moment in the flick. Yeah, yeah, not prog, but it was good to hear Collins' singing in such a great film.

The craziest one I ever encountered was hearing Time Flies by Porcupine Tree at Disneyland... really wish I recorded it back then, because I was pretty stunned

This isn't really prog but I'm going to mention it anyway since it's relatively obscure. I noticed there's a tv commercial with some remade (probably just for the commercial)version of "this will be our year" by the Zombies.

Got a kick out of an old episode of Mission Impossible where the team was in some made-up, Eastern European, totalitarian-state of a country (of course). Peter Graves and Peter Lupus were posing as utility workers with the word "Kraftwerks" emblazoned across the back of their overalls and on the side of their truck.

At a tiki bar in Las Vegas yesterday, they played recorded island-style music in the background. One song was half over before I realized it was a cover of "Wish you were Here". I prefer the original. 😀

However, if you are a real Pink Floyd freaky and want to name your cat with a relation to the band, you would have to go with Lucifer Sam. |

Cool. I actually met Bob Moog's daughter once. She was nice and amused by the fact that I have a casio keyboard.

A little while ago a female contestant on Jeopardy said she named her two cats after Roger Waters and Syd Barrett. She said she plays fetch with the one cat(Roger). The host said you can throw another brick at the wall.
I wonder if she knew that Syd Barrett's real name was Roger also.

Because they kept interrupting the song for announcements on toilet bowl cleaner that was on sale.

Why is that sad? I would think that would be a good thing.
