"Lonely Hearts" is repeating.
All I gotta say is...VAST. They ruined the VAST, man!

Lonely Hearts
On the scene where Angel is looking for the killer and Kate is at Angel Investigations looking through Angel's stuff what is the name of the song that was playing and who sings it? Please pm me or e-mail me with the answer. Thanks.

That would be VAST's Touched. VAST was used largely in season one, noteably in the six-minute trailer.
Official Site ETA: The song is on their debut album "Visual Audio Sensory Theater", and you can hear a sample of it, as well as see the video in the "Experience" section.

Thanks, La! I think I'm a VAST fan, now. I'd never been to their site before. It's impressive! Go to vitals and play with the Vastbot. :snort:

Isn't it lovely?
Oh, and if you look to the lower right hand side, there's an active flame. Click on it. A thing fades in where you can change the background music.

In honor of IWRY playing tonight, I give you selections of TWoP's Strega's review of the episode.

Seriously, B/A...it was fine there. S1, he just left SunnyD- I accepted it. It didn't change the fact that the ep was cringe-worthy and corny as all hell, but I accepted it. It also confirmed why exactly those two can't be together- what was Angel gonna do- go back to SunnyD and work in retail while Buffy fights the demons? Come on...

Thanks for that La! I actually laughed out loud reading those! She really has a knack for these things!
I actually caught the tail end of IWRY today... turned on the TV just in time to hear the "Now more than ever I know how much I love you" line and had to turn the channel. Like La, I "get" it in the context of early S1 AtS, but even there -- and now more than ever looking back on it -- it is so corny and ridiculously over-the-top melodramatic that it floors me that Joss wants us to take this seriously now as the "way it should be", and that Angel is still pining for her. He lost all credibility when he refused to acknowledge that B/A was one of those "Romeo and Juliet" tragic first loves that is the end-all-be-all while it is happening but ultimately is doomed. He started out OK, and if he'd have played it the way it should've been played, and let them move on to healthier relationships (read: C/A, and even to an extent B/R) it could have actually worked. And, strangely enough, I think if he'd have done that, then more people (other than the die hard militant B/A shippers) might look on B/A more fondly, with that epic feel to it. Rather than being resentful of the fact that JW keeps shoving it down our throats until we choke on it. Wow, sorry ... I think that came dangerously close to a rant! oops. Lori

No, I think you're absolutely right, Lori. If they (ME and Joss) had just let.it.go, I don't think there would've been the "We don't give a DAMN about this!!" attitude that's happening with the recent eps and sure to happen as season five progresses.
It's just a very silly thing to me- first love equals *one* love? I dun think so, bubba. I don't think the "go ahead, pine for your first love that ultimately made you miserable because s/he was your first!" message is the right one to be sending to the audience. IWRY was the perfect time to finally cut the B/A relationship strings, and they failed miserably. Meh. There's always Xena/Gabby...

I completely agree. It's like watching a train-wreck happen. Or even worse -- in a perverse kind of way, it's almost like watching what you see in an abusive relationship. I know -- not really from watching as much as from what I've heard other people say -- that to an extent Season 6 of Buffy was going for that whole analogy, but B/A have the same kind of "it's a totally destructive relationship that is nothing but bad for both parties, and they both do nothing but hurt each other emotionally (and sometimes physically) but we keep coming back to each other anyway because we can't find a way out" vibe. And to make it worse, JW romanticizes it! Quote:
So true! Lori

"Hero", again.
First thoughts- I love Cordy's voiceover and the over-dramatic Dark Avenger scene. The perfect tongue-in-cheek introduction to the show. I miss that show...

"Parting Gifts"
How long were Cordy and Angel by themselves before Wes showed up? It couldn't have been that long, since Cordy was obviously still grieving...yet Cordy didn't blink an eye when Angel cooked breakfast for her in the end of the ep, which could signify that he had done that before. Anyone?
