"We're so close to something better left unknown
I can feel it in my bones.

Gimme sympathy.
After all of this is gone,
Who would you rather be,
The Beatles or the Rolling Stones?

Oh seriously
You're gonna make mistakes,
You're young.
Come on, baby, play me something
Like Here Comes The Sun."

Wow, I heard that #ScottPilgrimTakesOff reunited the cast of the movie, but I didn't realize that they meant absolutely every last person. For example, not only did they get #BrieLarson back to play Envy Adams, but they also had #EmilyHaines do the singing version of her voice, just like before. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go_mzqrjCus
