Journey -- "Separate Ways" (1983)
* The plot: take an invisible bunch of hairy rock musicians, have them play air instruments while serenading an angry woman storming down the San Francisco wharf like the movie "Ghost."
* Who put Crazy Glue on the bottom of Jonathan Cain's synthesizer and stuck it to the wall?
* The camera shows no mercy on mulleted-singer Steve Perry chewing up the scenery and about half of Northern California in a cheesy muscle shirt, shutting his eyes, shaking his head, balling his fists, hitting his chest, and grabbing for the lens! Steve, calm down! I'd be upset too with those close ups of my tonsils!
* For such an angry song, why does the drummer wear a t-shirt that reads FOOSBALL? And then play on oil canisters?
* My hypothesis about why the woman is angry: she'd wish Steve Perry would dump his other invisible band member friends who seem to follow them around while they are trying to work out their problems.
