  1. If you don’t have Greendale, tape it. I dig that album and the movie goes quite well with it.

    Once watched High Fidelity with a girl I used to like, she thought it was a great idea because it had John Cusack (appealed to her) and vinyl records, which she knew appealed to me. All I really remember was I made her stop the movie and rewind because I noticed The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys in the background in one scene. I was like “that album is classic! Look, here’s my copy.” I don’t think she cared. Needless to say, that didn’t last much longer. A good thing if you ask me.
