All these years later, it’s still inexplicable that this was a massive mainstream hit. It has much more in common with a novelty like the Monster Mash than it does with a pop song.

“Batdance,” Prince’s fourth #1 single, isn’t a dance, and it’s only barely a song. “Batdance” is a stitched-together six-minute monstrosity, is full of Batman dialogue samples and clips from Prince tracks that Batman director Tim Burton had rejected. It’s virtually impossible to judge “Batdance” as a standalone piece of music because “Batdance” was never intended as a standalone piece of music. Instead, it’s a marketing tool. But it’s Prince’s version of a marketing tool, so it’s a weird marketing tool. [more]

Billy Mack (Bill Nighy) - Christmas Is All Around Me
The full music video, in its ridiculous glory, seen only in pieces in Love Actually.
The more times you watch the film, the more you see it’s countless, egregious flaws. But Bill Nighy is untouchable. He gets better and better.

I’ve never seen anything like this before. And while Star Wars is the subject matter, it has absolutely nothing to do with why it’s great. Every second of this is a lovely expression of a lifelong obsession.
