Midnight Expressception

By Scott Keith on 4 November 2021


As much as FTR's new theme rules, it's essentially a copy of a copy.

Why didn't TK just license the original Giorgio Moroder theme from “Midnight Express”? (That track slaps ever harder, as the kids say.) Has his music rights budget dried up after having to play “Cult of Personality” so much the past few months?
I'm embarrassed to even bring it up, but it seems that my weekly payments have been getting so large that he needed to make cuts somewhere, and I guess the music budget is where it's going to start. A better man would just refuse the money and turn away the courier that drops off the giant Happy Gilmore cheque every Thursday morning, but do you want me to send my kid to a CANADIAN university? Gross. Harvard ain't cheap, you know.
