HIS 1989 SOUNDTRACK TO THE TIM BURTON FILM IS AN UNDERRATED CLASSIC
by IRA MADISON III
4/21/2016
June 20, 1989, one of the most significant pieces of American pop culture criticism was published. It wasn’t in the form of a book or an essay, though — it was an album.
Prince’s Batman soundtrack stands to this day as much more than an underrated entry in a catalogue full of classic LP’s.
It’s also an essential commentary on not one but two of America’s greatest pop culture icons.
“IOTD” is image of the day, a concept I came up with. I teach visual meditative therapy – or in easy terms – a mini mental holiday. For some people it is very difficult for them to get their image right. I post an image a day for people to use in their mini mental vacay. Some are serious, some are silly, and some are just beautiful!”
Linda Perry may be credited as the songwriter on “Hands of Love,” the moving end-title theme to Freeheld performed by Miley Cyrus, but the former 4 Non Blondesleader says she didn’t write it.
“I don’t take ownership in something that beautiful, because it comes from somewhere else,” she says.
The seeds of the soaring anthem came to Perry immediately after a screening of the indie film, now in theaters, about a cancer-stricken female detective (Julianne Moore) who fights five Freehold, N.J., councilmen to have her domestic partner (Ellen Page) receive her pension benefits.
When the white flag sails, covered in streaks of blood
There’ll be an endless sea, of hands rising up
And the preacher man, and the preacher’s son
Will stand arm in arm, just like everyone
We longing to be free, I won’t let you fade away
We shared so many dreams, I won’t let them fade away
In the hands of love, we carry on
Stronger than we started
Of the ash and dust that trail behind us
Wicked is the blinded
Who we are comes to life, yeah
Who we are comes to life
When the water spills, the glass will break
It drips like tears, running up your face
And the hounds will cry, for the dogs of war
But the sounds of joy, that victory will soar
We longing to be free, I won’t let you fade away
We shared so many dreams, I won’t let them fade away
In the hands of love, we carry on
Stronger than we started
Of the ash and dust that trail behind us
Wicked is the blinded
Who we are comes to life, yeah
Who we are comes to life
We longing to be free, I won’t let you fade away
In the hands of love, we carry on
Stronger that we started
Of the ash and dust that trail behind us
Wicked is the blinded
Who we are comes to life, yeah
Who we are comes to life
We come alive
We come alive
We come alive
We come alive
We come to life

~~LYRICS~~
Towards The Sun
Turn your face towards the sun
Let the shadows fall behind you
Don’t look back, just carry on
And the shadows will never find you
Turn your face towards the sun
Let the shadows fall behind you
Don’t look back, just carry on
And the shadows will never find you
Lost in the rock and roll
Got lost in a promise
Of a love I never know
Shadows chase me far from home
I remember when my heart was filled with gold
And you know
I’ve been burned
I’ve been burned
I’ve been burned
You’ve seen me lose control
It’s not worth
It’s not worth
It’s not worth
My soul
Movie time today. Went on my own to watch a movie that I’d been wanting to see. HOME is very well done … animated, musical and an array of talented actors as the voices.
****************************
Home is a 2015 American 3D computer-animated buddy comedy film produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by 20th Century Fox.
It is based on Adam Rex’s 2007 children’s book The True Meaning of Smekday and stars Jim Parsons, Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, and Steve Martin. Tim Johnson is the director of the film, Chris Jenkins and Suzanne Buirgy are its producers, and the adaptation is by Tom J. Astle and Matt Ember. The story takes place on planet Earth, where an alien race called the Boov invades, a teenage girl named Tip manages to avoid capture and goes on the run.
The film was released in theaters on March 27, 2015. Home was promoted with the release of a four-minute short film, titled Almost Home, and premiered at the Boulder International Film Festival on March 7, 2015. Besides lending her voice to the film, Rihanna also created a concept album of the same name — the soundtrack also includes guest vocals from Jennifer Lopez among others. The soundtrack was supported by two singles — “Towards the Sun” and “Feel the Light” — and was met with moderate success on music charts.

~Plot~
On the run from their enemy the Gorgs, the Boov have found a new planet to call home, Earth. Led by Captain Smek (Steve Martin), they commence their friendly invasion of the planet, relocating the humans to other parts of the planet while the Boov inhabit their homes.
One of the Boov named Oh (Jim Parsons) is a more excited, free-thinking member of the species. He invites all the other Boov to his apartment for a housewarming party. None of the Boov show up and Oh is left feeling lonely. Not far from Oh is a teenage girl named Tip (Rihanna). Her mother Lucy (Jennifer Lopez) is separated from her during the invasion, leaving Tip with her pet cat Pig and fueling her hatred for the Boov. After a Boov enters Tip’s home, she runs and drives away, hoping to find her mother.
Oh runs into the street to find a Boov cop named Kyle (Matt L. Jones), who, like the rest of the Boov, are annoyed with Oh. He invites him to the party, and then decides to send a mass invite to every Boov on Earth. Oh hits “reply all”, which goes to everybody in the galaxy, including the Gorgs. The Boov panic and declare Oh a fugitive. The little alien just barely manages to escape. He runs into a convenience store to grab stuff, just as Tip and Pig are doing. Tip runs into Oh and shoves him into the fridge, trapping him with a broom. She decides to leave him there until her car fails to start. Oh offers to fix it, so Tip reluctantly lets him out. He turns it into a hovercar that runs on slushies. Oh hitches a ride with Tip when he promises to help her find her mother, but they have to go to Paris to find the Boov Command Center and locate her through that.
