The film was shot at a number of locations around Seattle, and includes scenes at Gasworks Park, Capitol Hill, Jimi Hendrix's grave at Greenwood Memorial Park in Renton and Pike Place Market.

Singles Singles, a spirit-of-the-times film from the heart of 1992's Seattle boom, provided a fairly engaging focal point but didn't distract from cuddling with the Mrs. If there is a saving grace to this film, it's the natural charm of its players and the appearance they give of caring about what they're doing. Presumably, the action in Singles begins on June 15th, the first sunny day of summer and ends on September 10th, the last sunny day before the rains return--in a drought year. www.bigempire.com /gooden/singles.html   (823 words)

Bohemian Rhapsody - Open Encyclopedia Some claim that this first minute of "Bohemian Rhapsody" inspired the ending of the song "One Jump Ahead (reprise)" from the Disney animated film Aladdin: Both are sung by a poor boy character, and both have the words "to me" sung on the same notes in roughly the same inflection over the same cadence.

Grunge music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In the media's spotlight, grunge became part of the pop culture, most notably being a major part of the 1992 film Singles, which featured several grunge bands. Similarly, the media would view grunge as a whole culture, assuming it to be Generation X's attempt to create a culture similar to the hippie counterculture of the previous generation. An interesting case of this superficiality backfiring on the media was the grunge speak hoax, which caused The New York Times to print a fake list of slang terms that supposedly were used in the grunge scene. www.vacilando.org /_cliextra/baghdadmuseumorg/includepage.php?title=Grunge&action=edit   (3735 words)
