Opening narration

Plot

A man is sitting in his pick-up truck outside a bar, drinking whiskey out of a bottle, watching the door to the bar. When he finishes enough of the whiskey, he pulls out a gun from his glove compartment and goes inside. The man, Jack Haines, strolls up to the singer on stage and then walks back to the bar and orders a beer. The singer finishes his song and begins talking about another song when he pauses and does a different song, one that hits Jack Haines right square in the face. When Jack questions the bartender, he tells him that the singer just came in out of the rain, looking for a dry place and some work and turned out to be a great singer and blind as a bat.

The singer sits down next to Jack and asks what he thought of his song and they begin talking. He tells Jack he meant the song to hit him where he lives. The singer claims he has a talent, or curse, to be able to zero in on people where the bad things hit them. He even tells Jack that he knows what he wants to do: shoot someone that he feels has wronged him. Jack says if he's so talented, the singer should tell him which guy is cheating with his wife. The singer claims he doesn't know anything but the pain Jack's feeling. Jack notices his wife has come into the bar and is seated at a nearby table. When he notices a guy flirting with her, Jack nearly pulls the gun out, but the singer stops him. It turns out the guy was just flirting and never saw her before.

Love Is...

Love Is... is the name of a comic strip created by New Zealand cartoonist Kim Casali (née Grove) in the 1960s. The cartoons originated from a series of love notes that Grove drew for her future husband, Roberto Casali. They were published in booklets in the late 1960s before appearing in strip form in a newspaper in 1970, under the pen name "Kim". They were syndicated soon after and the strip is syndicated worldwide today by Tribune Media Services. One of her most famous drawings, "Love Is...being able to say you are sorry", published on February 9, 1972, was marketed internationally for many years in print, on cards and on souvenirs. The beginning of the strip coincided closely with the 1970 film Love Story. The film's signature line is "Love means never having to say you're sorry." At the height of their popularity in the 1970s the cartoons were earning Casali £4-5 million annually.

Roberto Casali was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 1975 and Kim stopped working on the cartoon to spend more time with him. Casali commissioned London-based British cartoonist Bill Asprey to take over the writing and drawing of the daily cartoons for her, under her pen name. Asprey has produced the cartoon continuously since 1975. Upon her death in 1997, Casali's son Stefano took over Minikim, the company which handles the intellectual rights.

Songs

Love Is... (song)

"Love Is..." is a song by avant-garde band King Missile. It was the only single from the band's 1994 album King Missile.

Content

In "Love Is...," a dirge-like track with elements of doom metal, frontman John S. Hall dryly recites several examples of what love is ("beautiful / Like birds that sing") and is not ("ugly / Like rats / In a puddle of vomit"). The chorus consists of Hall ominously chanting, "Love is beautiful."

Maxi-single

The "Love Is..." maxi-single was intended for promotional use only, and not supposed to be sold; nonetheless, copies are sometimes available in "used" sections of record stores, because some people who received the maxi-single sold it anyway.

Track listing

All lyrics by Hall. All music by Roger Murdock, Dave Rick, and Chris Xefos.
