in the air tonight

this was the topic of discussion at work today:



watching that just doesn't get old.

it's a british ad campaign for cadbury (maker of the like-named egg) and apparently it's so popular that "in the air tonight" is back on the charts.

a watching of the video sparked a debate between two co-workers as to whether or not "in the air tonight" was the music playing during the subway sex scene in risky business.

the two put a million dollars on it, they were so certain of their positions: yes, it was or no, it was the tangerine dream crap.

the attempt to settle the score resulted in these two things:
1. me e-mailing an explicit video clip of said sex scene courtesy of you tube to my bosses' e-mail, something he later said he fully encourages.
2. one of the factions in the bet _ the one insisting "in the air tonight" indeed plays during the scene _ arriving back from his lunchbreak with blockbuster's copy of risky business.

turns out they were both right as the scene included both "in the air tonight" and tangerine dream, and they had to call it even at $500,000 each.
