In these uncertain times, what “keytar” fan among us can’t benefit from a little Funkytown.

Ah… how I long for those carefree 1980s, when all we had to worry about was disco-deprivation-syndrome and an impending “nuclear winter.”

We’ve all done this: We’re watching a movie and we ask ourselves, “Where have I seen this actor?”

Viewing an interesting BBC WWII docudrama, while trying to burn off calories on an exercise bike, I wondered where I had seen (or rather heard) the lead actor, Eddie Izzard. But then, just as I was breathlessly passing the last of my Tour de France competitors, I remembered. He was, of course, the amazing Mr. Kite from the Beatles tribute movie, Across the Universe.

If you have not seen it, below is a bizarre (though entertaining) 3-minute clip from movie.
