It was the theme to 'Batman Forever' -- you know, the one with Val Kilmer as Bruce Wayne? It elevated the entire movie.

All I think of is that they play this song all the time at Batman The Ride at Six Flags.

Thanks - now I had to listen to it again.

Twice.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

No, but I literally just finished watching Batman Forever.  Like, I finished it no more than 10 minutes ago, came upstairs to check the forum, and found this thread.

Spooky.

No, it's not you, it's me too now, since this thread.

Yes, I dwell on some things far too long, and I can't stop thinking about that song now.

I had American Pie going through my head earlier this evening, so to get rid of it I listened to Kiss from a Rose.

Then I had that stuck in my head.

This video has helped, so thank you once again noisyturtle :)

I miss this show. I miss my Batman Forever soundtrack. Staph with the feels guys. Guise.

 Actually, I previewed a few songs from the Batman Forever soundtrack and I only recognized Seal's song. Method Man?! Massive Attack?! The Flaming Lips?! That soundtrack is loaded with goodies!
