$30 Project |
I'm Lindsay and like most freelance writers, I'm broke! In 2010, I didn't spend more than $30 on a single clothing item for the entire year. In 2011, I kept my budget to $100 per month. In 2012, I can spend $1,200 whenever and wherever I choose. Questions/Concerns can be addressed care of thirtydollarproject@gmail.com or tweet me! @30dollarproject for outfit updates and @LindsH for the various musings of my everyday life. |
Matthew has been writing about Prince the last couple of days and today he mentioned The Batman soundtrack.
When I was sick on Christmas Eve, I spent some time curled up on the couch watching this movie. It’s one of the definitive films of my childhood along with Ghostbusters, Goonies, the Indiana Jones trilogy, Back to the Future etc. (Lots of male heroes in my childhood. Hmrph.)
It turns out that “Partyman” is actually an important song to me. It was during that museum scene that little 7 year old me said, “Hm. He seems to be having a lot more fun than Batman. You know, Batman is kind of boring.” And I decided that the villans of the story were far more interesting characters to watch. Kind of a big conclusion for a 7 year old, I suppose.
I wouldn’t have claimed that Prince had any great sway over my childhood years, but there you go! Sneaky music.
