C'est magnifique!

Like everyone else in the world, I adore Joan from Mad Men. I adored her about ten trillion times more after she sang this song and played the piano accordian. Even though this scene is sad, it's hard not to fall in love with her harder.

Sukiyaki

This is my favourite old song at the moment. I saw it on Mad Men on SBS a few weeks a go ("Flight 2", Season 2) and instantly fell in love with it. It was timed so perfectly with the beautiful waitress (Elizabeth Tsing) sashaying out from around the corner of a 1960's Japanese restaurant in slow motion.

I tried to find an actual clip depicting the entire desire-fuelled scene, because these photos of Elizabeth Tsing in the show do not do her justice, nor does Kyu Sakamoto's music video clip do his song any favours either (no offence Kyu, it's just a bit boring).

On Mad Men, when the song is playing, all you see is the glossy black of the waitress' sleek hair, the emerald green of her cheongsam, and the red red red of her lips.
