We Are Not Romantics, We Are Here To Serve You
Two favorite musical numbers from two favorite films, the second now appearing more and more to be an influence on the first (though I'm fairly sure it wasn't . . . probably).
From the (criminally unavailable on DVD) great 1981 punk/new wave compilation doc, Urgh! A Music War, Gary Numan & The Tubeway Army perform "Down in the Park":
And from the great original 1967 version of Bedazzled, written by and starring Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, Drimble Wedge & The Vegetation perform the title song:
And for those who liked the 1979 Bowie "Space Oddity" video I posted previously HERE, I've updated the embedded video with a better version. Enjoy.
UPDATE: Berit reminded me that I should mention another possible influence on the Gary Numan performance above . . .
