Singles rocked. It was hilarious, signified the times, it had Matt Dillon, Bill Pullman, Campbell Scott and Bridget Fonda at their cutest. It had early arragned dating, it had coffee shops before starbucks, it had Eddie Vedder when he had some Indie cred and it was a fucking hilarious satire on indie rock amonst other things.
I am sure you can get halfway off your highhorse and rent Spanish Prisoner with me. I bet we both liked that one.

Dying Young? Spanish Prisoner? Yeesh.
Singles was two dimensional caricature at best. It is a historical artifact of our time, but it was shockingly soulless melodrama. It lacked heart, when it purported to be all about the heart.
This is no way to score points for sleeping on the Odds-Man futon in September.
