Dedicated to my most precious person in the whole world :*

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

l had to come all the way from the highways and byways of Tallahassee, Florida to Motor City, Detroit to find my true love. lf you gave me a million years to ponder, l would never have guessed that true romance and Detroit would go together. And to this day, the events that followed all seem like a distant dream. But the dream was real and was to change our lives forever. l kept asking Clarence why our world seemed to be collapsing and everything seemed so shitty. And he'd say: "That's the way it goes. But don't forget, it goes the other way too.'' That's the way romance is. Usually that's the way it goes. But every once in a while, it goes the other way too.

Amid the chaos of that day when all l could hear was the thunder of gunshots and all l could smell was the violence in the air, l look back and am amazed that my thoughts were so clear and true. That three words went through my mind endlessly. Repeating themselves like a broken record. You're so cool. You're so cool. You're so cool. And sometimes Clarence asks me what would l have done if he had died. lf that bullet had been two inches more to the left. To this, l always smile. As if l'm not going to satisfy him with a response. But l always do. l tell him of how l would want to die. But that the anguish and the want of death would fade like the stars at dawn. And that things would be much like they are now. Perhaps. Except maybe l wouldn't have named our son... Elvis.

  • Neil. You're so cool, you're so cool, you're so cool.

  • Love this film, Slater is like a kid himself. Just so beautiful. You just don't get films like this anymore.

  • Solar Stone - Solarcoaster

  • The ending of this movie is absolutely perfect, it gives me goosebumps everytime...

  • @DancingMatador in itunes search "You're So Cool"

  • Name of song?

  • My favourite movie ending, ever. Instead of going with the usual anti-Hollywood-establishment-T­arantino bullshit ending and killing everyone, Tony Scott instead gave us a little moment of ecstasy. I'm so very grateful that Clarence and Alabama got to live happily ever after, walking into the sunset with their beautiful little boy.
