...everyone listened to ‘Don’t Stop Believing,’ it would be a drug-free, bad-attitude-free world.” The song has been used by “Family Guy,” “Talladega Nights,” and Dave Eggers’s “A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius.” It is the ultimate ADD-song, jumping around from vignette to vignette with no real story. The song starts with the tale of a small-town girl and then, suddenly, a city...

...high-definition TVs, even the more affordable 720p sets, and I can vouch for the fact that whether they're on Blu-ray or HD DVD, movies look much better than they do on standard DVDs. Pop in the Blu-ray edition of Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby that comes with the PS3, and you're blown away by the detail (and by how old and pockmarked Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly look up close). Likewise, load up the copy of Peter Jackson's King Kong that ships with the Xbox HD DVD player, fast forward...
