ryansgirl319 0 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 I have never heard of a painting titled "Boulevard of Broken Dreams." Who painted such a painting? Link to post Share on other sites
SoulGirl 0 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 apparently it's a painting by someone called helnwein. you can see it online: "Dream as if you'll live forever...Live as if you'll die today". Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, James Dean & Humphrey Bogart share their common tales in this classic Diner scene painted by Helnwein it looks more like a poster than a painting Link to post Share on other sites
regulardave 0 Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 damn bloody Lady Marmalade.... I hate that song! I thought it was Bohemian Rhapsody, but i think thats twice (maybe three times) no.1 in UK and only once in US. BTW, what was the answer to the tie breaker question??

Basing a trivia question about a song based on an imitation of a painting is like saying Kenny Roger's "The Gambler" is based on "Dogs Playing Poker"! Link to post Share on other sites

Lambchop Flansburgh 0 Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Jakob Dylan is the lead singer for The Wallflowers. Bob Dylan is his father. Jakob named the band after one of his dad's songs. How can you give more credit to Judas Priest than The Wallflowers? That doesn't even make sense. Link to post Share on other sites

Foxy 0 Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 I LOVE that painting! I wonder if you can buy a print of it anywhere? Link to post Share on other sites
Earth-Angel 0 Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 I've seen it sold in the poster racks at alot of the popular stationary and gift stores, should be easy to get hold of one Link to post Share on other sites
Beatlemaniac 0 Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 The really famous painting that looks like Boulevard of Broken Dreams is Nighthawks by Edward Hopper. This lesser-known version is a spoof on the Hopper painting. Still, you guys ask some great questions! Very hard, even for an old-timer like me. Link to post Share on other sites
