Week Sixty-Seven: Boys Soundtrack - Smoking Popes - "Gotta Know Right Now" - Soundtrack

So back in 1996, Winona Ryder co-starred with Lukas Haas in the film, Boys. The film was completely underwhelming, but the soundtrack was phenomenal; so I am going to cover four of the tracks from the soundtrack over the course of this week!!!

I love it when this little tune comes to visit me whilst on shuffle mode on my iPod, which is not all too often when it has around 4,999 other songs to compete with for a position.

I really don't know much at all about this band, but Wikipedia shared with me a very interesting fact, which I will, in turn, share with you:

"The band got a break when pop punk icon Ben Weasel of Screeching Weasel became a fan and used his connections to recruit Mass Giorgini of Squirtgun to record the Smoking Popes' first LP, Get Fired."

You might recall that it was right around this time last year that I had Screeching Weasel week on my blog; so to commemorate that week, I will also throw in the Screeching Weasel tune, "You'll Be In My Dreams Today", for you...


If I told you that I really, really liked you a lot
I've wanted to for a long, long time but I never had the guts

[Chorus]
I wonder what you would say
I just can't go on this way
I gotta know right now
Today

I call your name from the window of my car as I drive
I wanna do something half insane to prove to you that I'm alive

[Chorus]

As I walk by your house for the third time tonight
And I stand in your drive way hypnotized by your bedroom light

[Chorus]

I gotta know right now,
I gotta know right now
