Riddle me this, riddle me that, how many tunes were inspired by the Bat?
This edition of The O/S/T Party finds Libby & Joe diving into the mid-90s superhero muck that is Batman Forever. It's a neon dayglo nightmare, and the soundtrack is no different, full of smooth R&B, college rock leftovers and one or two of the best songs of the 90s.
Not only did this album spawn SIX. RADIO. SINGLES. ("Kiss From a Rose", anyone?) It also sold millions of copies, would be nominated for, win AND lose Grammy awards, and inspired one of the most baffling animated music videos of all time.
Also in this episode, we discuss middle-aged teenager Dick Grayson, how and why this film became The Jim Carrey Show, Tommy Lee Jones' immortal putdown, and just the general rock opera-ness of the whole production. Strap yourselves in, folks. This episode goes some places!
