    I LOVE Hedwig!!!!!! Such a great movie, I also reccomend if you ever get the chance go see the play!!!
    Oh also the Origin of Love is based off of Plato's Symposium of Love, so if your a strong reader (i do mean strong) I recomend reading it

    Origin Of Love - Hedwig and the Angry Inch


    When the earth was still flat and the clouds made of fire
    and mountains stretched up to the sky, sometimes higher,

    folks roamed the earth like big rolling kegs
    they had two sets of arms
    they had two sets of legs
    they had two faces peering out of one giant head
    so they could watch all around them as they talked while they read
    and they never knew nothing of love
    it was before the origin of love

    origin of love
    the origin of love
    origin of love

    and there was three sexes then
    one that looked like two men glued up back to back
    they were called the children of the sun
    and similar in shape and girth was the children of the earth
    they looked like two girls rolled up in one
    and the children of the moon was like a fork stuck on a spoon
    they was part sun part earth part daughter part son

    oh the origin of love

    well the gods grew quite scared of our strength and defiance
    and Thor said "i'm gonna kill them all with my hammer
    like i killed the giants"
    but Zeus said "no,
    you'd better let me use my lightning like scissors
    like i cut the legs off the whales
    dinosaurs into lizards"
    and then he grabbed up some bolts, he let out a laugh
    said "i'll split them right down the middle
    gonna cut them right up in half"

    and the storm clouds gathered above into great balls of fire

    and then fire shot down from the sky in bolts
    like shining blades of a knife
    and it ripped right through the flesh
    of the children of the sun and the moon and the earth
    and some Indian god
    sewed the wound up to a hole
    pulled around to our bellies to remind us the price we payed
    and Osiris, and the gods of the nile
    gathered up a big storm
    to blow a hurricane
    to scatter us away
    a flood of wind and rain,
    a sea of tidal waves
    to wash us all away
    and if we don't behave they'll cut us down again
    and we'll be hopping 'round on one foot
    and looking through one eye

    the last time i saw you we had just split in two
    he was looking at me, i was looking at you
    you had a way so familiar i could not recognize
    'cause you had blood on your face
    i had blood in my eyes
    but i could swear by your expression
    that the pain down in your soul was the same
    as the one down in mine

    that's the pain
    that cuts a straight line down through the heart
    we call it love
    we wrapped our arms around each other
    tried to shove ourselves back together
    we was making love, making love
    it was a cold dark evening such a long time ago
    when by the mighty hand of Jove
    it was a sad story how we became lonely two-legged creatures
    the story, the origin of love

    that's the origin of love
    oh yeah, the origin of love
    the origin of love
    the origin of love

    OMG I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE HEDWIG!!

    okay enough capslock. But seriously, LOVED it. I bought it and I've watched it like 20 times but can't find anyone else to watch it with me. My fave song is Angry Inch. It gets in my head everytime I heard it. And Midnight Radio.

    Aaahh! I've been wanting to see this movie for ages now! I've downloaded the whole bloody soundtrack, know the story and the songs by heart... But I can't find any rental stores or friends that happen to have the movie, and I don't have thirty bucks to blow by ordering it in for purchasing. :\
