" "Because I'm driving you crazy and you're driving me crazy and I'd rather not see you and have you think good things about me than have you see me and hate me. 'Cause I can't afford to have you hate me, Keith. The only things I care about in this goddamn life are me and my drums and you." Directed by Howard Deutch Written by John Hughes Music by Stephen Hague and John Musser Cinematography by Jan Kiesser Editing by Bud S. Smith and M. Scott Smith"

" 90's baby but I've come around to the 80s. I need to see more of the pretty boys and girl before they got old. The techno music is not so bad once you get moving too. A sucker for romance and tom boys. "
