It may have popped up incidently in the movie though, but I wasn't listening out for it at the time.Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-31826579118850361802012-04-21T14:59:25.770+10:002012-04-21T14:59:25.770+10:00So valid!

I lent it to so many people that oneday it never made it home. Somewhere, some lucky person has a non-movie cover version they can be proud of (assuming their conscience about not returning it to its rightful owner does not bother them).<br /> <br />I can't remember if I figured out where the original title came from though. Does the movie reference the song at all?katie khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07972286213956394130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-47483158389406166882012-04-19T21:57:44.879+10:002012-04-19T21:57:44.879+10:00You've raised some very good points here.

Whether or not I buy the book depends on the blurb and the first page, but the cover plays a crucial role in the process.Mirjamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08990295333673929922noreply@blogger.com
