It will be a while before I can watch my Blu-Ray of "Australia", so I'm happy to finally see an interview with Baz Luhrmann.

[JLundvang]

FYI cupidoke: Baz did not write the words you are quoting. Mary Theresa Schmich, a columnist for the Chicago Tribune, wrote them in 1997. Luhrmann used the column she wrote for his 1999 hit "everyone's free (to wear sunscreen)".

..just on the note of compliments i think they should be payed to the justified recipient..not that Luhrmann's song version is not good..and thanks to him for spreading it to the mtv nation..but mary is the author and should be acknowledged as such

[bvonny]

[Carlijnjudith]

[emilyabbie]

[cupidoke]

Dont feel bad, not everyone can luv the same things, its better to love than to hate. So be glad u luv. yes, it can be frustrating if others dont feel the same about things. but as long as you feel it, you will always find people who feel the same things. Baz whote these words for a song once : Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults,if you
