Things that aren't directly connected to BBM and yet are somehow Brokieish

I was driving by a big movie complex and noticed that both Brothers and Imaginarium were listed on the sign as showing there. I haven't seen either yet... but of course seeing the sign made me think Brokieish thoughts.
I just can't motivate myself to go see those movies alone... especially Imaginarium. :-\

So tonight, I turned on the car radio, and what should just be coming on but this:
[youtube=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DXCHa9BYfE[/youtube]
(Well, not that exact live recording, but the original studio version. I really like this live one, though, but I have to warn you that for some reason in this particular video it cuts off rather abruptly at the end.)
Originally, when I realized this song was Brokieish, I'd always get kind of sad when listening to it, thinking of how it reflected on Ennis' and Jack's relationship.
Tonight, though, hearing it, I was happy, thinking of how odd it is that a 1975 recording by a British band should come to be widely recognized as a Brokie emblem among a weird and strangely assorted group of people living in several continents who have come together on a handful of websites for really mysterious reasons.

Very cool K!
Yes, the range of connections is pretty amazing when it comes to people drawn to BBM and things like music and literature, etc. that can be related (at least thematically, or by mood, etc.) to BBM.
The year 1975 is at least appropriate to the range of time in the BBM narrative... although, LOL, I don't know if E or J would be likely to listen to Floyd.
This Pink Floyd song might be good for on of those threads, floating around here somewhere, about songs that remind us of Ennis and Jack.

Oh, it's on there. I posted it years ago. And the weirdest thing was, on the day I posted it, Isabelle posted that she had woken up that same morning thinking about that song and feeling she wanted to mention it on that thread.
