OFFICER FARVA'S NATIONAL ANTHEM | SUPER TROOPERS 2

Recently saw Super Troopers 2 for the first time.  This scene where Farva boldly starts singing the National Anthem using the wrong lyrics had me dying of laughter, especially with Rob Lowe's reaction. I'm so glad this movie was made before 2019's woke agenda co-opted Hollywood.

"INTRO" by THE YOUNG ROMANTICS

From the band: "The album was inspired by Collier's own first year of marriage. "My wife was given three months to live after a damaged nerve caused gastrointestinal paralysis," he says. "She was essentially starving to death. I felt alone as I took care of her and watched her suffer. On drives alone, I just wished there was some kind of music I could blast that could help me feel something. I was so numb. I quickly learned that there's not a lot of music out there for widowers. So I wrote some." 
Fortunately, his wife made a remarkable recovery, and the rest of the album was written to process a complicated, tangled web of emotions. "I want this music to provide catharsis and comfort to those spouses who lose their marriage and find themselves in a caregiver role. It's not the romantic, happy life you envisioned. There can be a lot of grief and anger because of that – and then guilt over feeling sad and angry. I want those people to know they're not alone.""
