By the way how is that Hope & Change working out for You? If you are depending on the government then it is working out great. Welcome to Europe!
own it on dvd... actually own a collection of Christian Slater movies (of my own selection) where he's brilliant in them... and this one is one of them I remember watching many times in high school; and my folks hated.
This was also used in the film 'exotica' in 1994 starring mia kirschner. Unless this has also been used in an anti-smoking ad, it was 'waiting for the miracle' that was used.
I need to see this movie again. Among other things I'd forgotten how sexy Samantha Mathis was/is--she's got a great mouth.
But this movie was mainly about the monologues--excellent writing, and Christian Slater's best acting. I like Heathers and True Romance, but they're both so stylized and over-the-top--there's enough honesty in this material that Slater didn't have to rely on his fall-back crutch of pretending to be a young Jack Nicholson.
Love Leonard Cohen ~~ HOWEVER ~~ first time I heard "EVERYBODY KNOWS" was Christian Slater's character DJing in PUMP UP THE VOLUME ..... [good edit from the movie on this video]
This song says so much. I wish everyone world wide would just take a moment to really sit down and LISTEN to it. If they did, maybe, just maybe this could be a better world.
@Edubbplate Actually, not Jesus stuff. Biblical stuff. Cuz the Jewish Torah is mostly the Old Testament from the bible. & anyway he is Buddist now. He spent almost 20 years in a Buddist mosastary till his managers teft made him go back out on the road
@PlayaSinNombre No arguments here. He just uses the word "Jesus" in a lot of his songs. But thanks for the info. I didn't know much about him, just his music.

@viper8red They still have blackjack gum It tastes like black licorice. It is usually displayed with beeman's gum. It isn't very popular but I see it in the grocery store every once in a while. I am in california maybe it is a regional thing Like they have some product in the south that they don't carry here.
why cant more musicians be like leonard cohen, tupac shakur, or maybe dead prez(if they count). music today is garbage. hip-hop keeps raping , singing about the same crap over and over again and making no sense.
@sarmenhb tupac warned about this.....quote...'Dont be no entertainer and a stranger be a REAL mutherfucker"......unfortunately his advice appears to have fallen on deaf ears....but it isnt just hip hop.....pick any music genre and flip thru the dial.........uninspired garbage....and they blame 'piracy' for the drop in music sales.....no it your shit product assholes
For song choice, I prefer the cohen's theme, in this movie, or for listening...This version is better, because, in the beginning, you can see a cigaret burning, just few lights, and dark feeling around the piece...So, a woman voice, it's not in the tone; and the music is really near the Generics of Shows. Timeless is the word, this ambiance is really "sensuelle", "suave"...
This movie was my introduction to Leonard Cohen. Sadly, I got the soundtrack album and his original version of this song was not on it. I had no idea what his name was, and couldn't get his album.
(These days I'd just google the title to find that out, but of course this was pre-internet, otherwise the film would be about a podcaster, not a pirate radio DJ)
Fortunately the song was in the film, Exotica, and managed to get his name by watching the credits frame by frame on tape to get his name
An open message in the film and the song of the NWO of the Anti-Christ Freemasonic system! Had to download it for the Kafirs i still am incontact with through facebook! some of the evidence!
Not often I like remakes more than the original...sorry, "Concrete Blonde," I liked this much more...stick with Wendy's story...you'll get the dispossesd much better.
The movie featured Cohen's version which I loved so much that I purchased the soundtrack album just for that song (I didn't like any of the other tracks from the movie). Imagine my dissapointment when the soundtrack arrived ( I had to order it special from the U.S) and it only contained the Concrete Blonde version, which dosn't appear anywhere in the movie. So although I like some of there other track, Joey ect, I can't listen to there version of everybody knows without feeling ripped off!!!
It was supposed to. When the did the test showings they used the Concrete Blonde's on half of them. They expected their frat boy test audiences to prefer the newer one but they got negative reactions to it and positive to Cohen's timeless talent. So the Cohen version got sent to theaters but they had already shipped the soundtrack out to stores with the Concrete Blonde cover on it. They decided it wasn't cost effective to fix it.
Actualy Concrete Blond's version does apear in the movie the last night he goes on air in the jeep he opens the show with that version and not the ususal version by cohen
What I heard was that Leonard Cohen specified that he didn't want his version on the CD Soundtrack. *IF* you brought the vinyl version of the soundtrack, you got Leonard Cohen's version (The original that is, Concrete Blonde's version was rubbish, Don Henley's version was pretty good though)
@videomolly ooooooooh holy fuckballs...you aint lying...my Uncle was a Dj for a local radio staion and we thought this version was a slowed down version of the Concrete Blondes shitpile......we even tried to put the Concrete Blondes LP version on 45 and man were we disappointed....thank God for the modern age..Itunes and Limewire huh??
"Dude.... Leonard Cohen himself said this song was written and he just felt like a guy that "Nobody could pull anything over on." Pretty much, he wrote it because he felt like a bit of a tough guy... It's about being gullible but not being gullible at the same time, just the way it sounds... O.o "
Geesss, someone did some looking around and found it.. This song was wrote back in the early 80's, how the hell could it have been about Bonehead Bush and that twirp Yo' Bama?
i love htis wonderfully subversive movie, along with heathers and less than zero the book not hte moveie it just caught the zeigiest of the late eightites and early nineites
As I have said elsewhere, the anthem of our time. "Pump Up the Volume" is a masterpiece. Christian Slater, born to play this role. Poor Youtubers getting picked on by Fox. Getting their details subpoenaed. Just Google it. Do you cut off your arm to get away after a one night stand? I've never had one, but that's what I think of when online membership is handed up instead of dealt with in-house. Youtube though, more hemmed in than an Australian movie critic at the launch of Australia. Am I right?
Cohen what greatness.
