Classic Music Video of the Week

I'm gonna jump right in and post one more for the week.

This week's Classic Music Video of the Week is in honor of Jill. She has some big projects and trips coming up at work and let's face it, sometimes people need motivation to get through the work week. That said, this week's video is a 3-fer.

1) Jill and I saw The Brothers Solomon yesterday. While I'm not sure it's a movie that will appeal to the masses, if you like the comedic stylings of Will Arnett and Will Forte, you will probably laugh a decent amount with this film. Why is this important? The CMVW is featured heavily in the movie and we laughed every time it came on.

2) This song is a classic...music video of the week. Most people know it. Anyone who is an 80s buff definitely knows it and likely loves it.

3) The video features clips from what is hailed as one of the big Brat Pack movies. This film was like the Ocean's Eleven of its day when you consider the 80s star power in it. In fact, it was so powerful that they used the movie title as the main title of the song.

I'm sure you've guessed it by now, but here it is. Enjoy your 80s flashback with "St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)" by John Parr.



And Jill, "Soldier on. Only you can do what must be done."

Why thank you, Eileen. That was hilarious. And I think I just peed a little.
