Going through routines, planning my day, and checking the news, Nine Inch Nail’s song, “Everyday Is Exactly the Same” (2006) began streaming. Those initial words, you know?
I believe I can see the future
Cause I repeat the same routine
I think I used to have a purpose
But then again
That might have been a dream
I think I used to have a voice
Now I never make a sound
I think, OMG, no, that’s too depressing. Searching for an alternative, my stream offered “Clocks” by Coldplay. I thought, No, no, that’s no better, dude. The stream offered “Stuck in the Middle with You” by Stealer Wheels. I think the stream thought itself funny.
Bah.

I love that song. I once got my son to put it with a clip of 1984, the scene where Winston is sitting in his room at the beginning, writing in his secret notebook, then I showed it to my students. They loved it!

Whoa. I bet that was fascinating. It sounds like it would really work.

The lyrics match the dialogue-less scene so well!
