Rising like Aphrodite from the sea, one or two songs from film soundtracks inevitably surface as a particular season's Love Song. Be it sentimental (Aerosmith's "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" from Armageddon), bitter and/or vengeful (Mary J. Blige's "I'm Not Gonna Cry" from Waiting to Exhale) or, most common of all, composed by Bryan Adams (Robin Hood Prince of Thieves's "Everything I Do [I Do it For You]," Don Juan DeMarco's "[Have You Ever] Really Loved a Woman?"), these Love Songs dominate radio play-lists and often surpass their related movies...

Thoughts and breath float down a golden saxophone and emerge as hundreds of liquid moans and cataclysmic rhythms on a night made for jazz. The Mama Kin Playhouse (owned by Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, of all people) presented Ravi Coltrane. As the son of John Coltrane, the legendary jazz musician, Ravi is making the saxophone a treasured trademark of the Coltrane family and also creating his own style.

...same reason why many Hindus took offense to the cover of Aerosmith's Nine Lives, released in 1997. According to the on-line magazine India Pulse, "in place of Lord Krishna's face Sony and Columbia artists inserted the head of a cat. They also altered the male chest of Lord Krishna to that of a female with breasts, wearing a woman's blouse." Media executives did not incorporate Hindu symbols out of love for the culture, or with a desire to educate; they simply were looking for something quaint and exotic to market better their product, with little regard...

McGwire responded first by grimly ignoring the pressure: he wouldn't discuss the record, threatened to end the batting- practice show and, for a short stint, denied some interview requests. Then--and here's the part of the film where we cue the Aerosmith ballad--he internalized the pressure and turned it into motivation. He held press conferences before every road series. He started to smile at reporters. By the end, when the fans' flashbulbs made the park seem like it was being pelted by a summer lightning storm, he stood in the on-deck circle with his eyes closed...
