I just read about this in The New Yorker

The Wizard of Oz/ Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.


I've heard about this before. But, I've recently read about it. Have any of you actually done this? Snacks, I'm looking at you. Apparently there are roughly 100 documented instances of synchronicity.


Around 2:26 Toto looks out of the basket at the ground, right when the lyrics say "peaking around on a piece of ground". Fucking crazy man.


Anyways you can watch the whole thing on you tube dot com

If you really want you mind blown, watch Gone with the Wind (1993) with Jame Brown's Revolution of the Mind: Live at the Apollo, Vol. 3 (1971). According to The New Yorker in the beginning of the movie there is a scene with slaves in the field and James screams "Bewildered!". He is singing "baby, baby, baby" at Scarlett O'Hara's first appearance.

Snacks, here's your next movie night. Weed, Gone with the Wind, and James Brown.
