  AFI's 100 YEARS...100 LAUGHS
Interesting facts about AFI’s 100 Years…100 Laughs include: Cary Grant is the most celebrated actor with eight films in the top 100; The Marx Brothers and Woody Allen star in five; Spencer Tracy, Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin and Bill Murray each appear in four films.

AFI’s 100 Years…100 Movies and AFI’s 100 Years…100 Stars were each viewed by more than 11 million people, winning their respective time periods.

 Consolation Champs: Comment on AFI's 100 Years, 100 Songs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
We read AFIs Top 100 Movie Songs list and suspect that all voters just got fed of with all music in films after Chariots of Fire in the early 80s.
Looking over the top 100 songs selected, the top 10 are absolute quality picks and should be applauded.
Perhaps the voters were to busy listening to ‘The Yankee Doodle Boy’ (#71 on the list) from 1942 during the 80s to even consider a man who dresses like a female at times to be considered an artist.

One thing that perturbs me is the fact that the list was restricted to American songs.
Anyhow, in restricting the list to American songs, the AFI pretty much excluded the songs from The Beatles' movies, Lulu's "To Sir With Love," anything from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," and many other British songs.
Despite the omissions and the songs that I think should not have been on the list (will "Footloose" really be remembered 50 years from now?), I have to say that over all I was happy with it.

 Afi: Sing The Sorrow Review @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
Songs to check out on the album are "Miseria Cantare" and "The Great Disappointment".
Afi isn't like the pop punk that's flooding the market, they don't rely on powerchords (nothing wrong with them) and the vocals are smooth.
AFI's (A Fire Inside) new album "Sing The Sorrow" is a CD that I bought one week ago on the day of it's release.

 The Essential Joe Morse: AFI's Top 100 Songs
The American Film Institute, continuing its efforts to become the worldwide leader in Top 100 lists, recently unveiled its "100 Years, 100 Songs" compilation of the greatest songs from movies.
It was a defining song in a defining movie, and much better than the other four songs ahead of it (it came in at #6).
AFI should have either decided to pick great songs that were in movies, or songs that made a movie great.

Being at the tail-end of my teen years, I was of course longing to get out from under the shadow of my parents, and Florida was a nice climate, far away from home.
