| Pure nostalgic joy and dreamlike pleasureWhen you are dealing with a myth you have to look for what was new at the time when that myth appeared. And the Beatles are such a myth. This film reveals the fabric the myth is made of. Pure cinematographic and even photographic silk. The four boys have to be running because at the time everything young and new was on the run since it was chased by the establishment in order to be pilloried and exposed. But it also had to show how these four young men had to be able to capture the attention of other people and bring them into the running, first of all young people, particularly girls, and second the best representatives of the establishment, coppers. The film also had to be in black and white to be out of time, eternal because looking old, even odd or oddly even. Then and but their music did not have to convince their audience. It was new, fresh, lively, light, slightly rocky and rather smoothly rolly, with some drums but not too much, and a lot of harmony and melody, but the main attraction was the use of simple catch phrases to express love, freedom, desire, alienation and yet liberation in a mellow and sweet wrapping, like the cute title of the film taken from one of the songs. Finally the film had to satisfy the audience on the lifestyle of the Beatles and on their surrealistic reality. That is done with a plot based on their real life as musicians, etc, and at the same time with constant reference to impossible, at times absurd, breaches in this realism into some impossible meaningless or humoristic pranks. In one word the film is so real that it reaches beyond reality and even the virtuality of a life imagined as being out of logic.

| Float on AirTracy Chapman's new CD stands out because of her depth as songwriter, powerful vocal performance & unique sound. "Save Us All" is one of my favorite tracks on the CD with its slap-happy rhythm & joyful expression of tolerance, "I've heard that your God's older, Buddha, Allah, Krishna, manifest with many faces, worshipped the world over in foreign places; I assume your God must love you." Chapman revisits the theme about the need for redemption on the hauntingly lovely title track, "To our Father, what good may come to let the children walk alone, to fear to fail & need no savior to be at peace in our bright future?" "For a Dream" also has a spiritually soothing quality. "Thinking of You" glides on Dean Parks' pixie-like guitar, "You floated on the air, far away at light speed; I guess some objects do defy the laws that we conceive." "Something to See" envisions a day when war is a history on a lovely track. Chapman examines many religious beliefs with a joyful, tender spirit. From track to track, "Our Bright Future" is a consistently excellent, a pleasure. Bravo!

| Great AlbumYou won't have to skip a song, every song is beautifully written and sung. The album is a keeper, a great gift. I especially love the song Capri, it has so much meaning and I have dedicated to my sister from another mother who is expecting. Great Album, only wished it was longer because I have to keep playing over and over, not that I mind.

| Girllll Powerrrr!!!!So they're a little cheesy. I'll say the same thing I said about Milli Vanilli. Who Cares? They may have little or no singing talent, but the songs (especially "Say You'll Be There") are catchy as hell, and at least they came around before Britney Spears, who is so much more responsible for ruining teen pop music than they could ever be. That dreamy sex ballad "Naked" is pretty cool, too.
