Backstory:
What happened?
Was in the toilet in my Kofu apartment in 16 July 2014 , where I decided to play some music from my mobile phone and out came classics and uplifting music, starting with John Meyer's No Such Thing, Dean Martin's Everybody Loves Somebody followed by Olivia Newton John's Xanadu. Immediately it stirred images from the film, tacky as it is, I loved the film very much. For so many reasons, the main of which was the music.
What did I do?
Decide to share my love and passion for the film and song by writing this blog entry. Hope everyone enjoys the music, and watch the film. It has a very inspirational back story!
