The cult classic "Rocky Horror Picture Show" is one of my favorite films. I first watched it at an early age on cable television and oddly enough I didn't find it to be that weird back then. Anyway, I've become a big fan of Rocky Horror as the years past and I've even had the pleasure of going to a midnight showing back in 2004. I even got to portray Brad for a bit at Frenchwoods Rocky Horror night. It's a really great experience and I'll never forget getting my friend Mark Gordon into the film. I don't know if I can pick my favorite song as I pretty much like them all except for Superheroes, which I was happy they cut from the American version. The song of the day, "Science Fiction/Double Feature" opens the play and film version of Rocky Horror. The red lips that appear in the opening credits belong to Patrica Quinn, who plays Magenta. But the voice belongs to Richard O'Brien, who plays Riff Raff. Here's the lyric of the day and if you're Rocky Horror virgin, I recommend you check out the film.
"And
at a deadly pace it came from (Where) Outer Space. (Thank You.) And
this is how the message ran."(Freeze those lips.) -Rocky Horror Picture

If you're wondering what the words in parenthesis are ask anyone who's a Rocky Horror fanatic and they'll happily educate you. Tonight if you're interested in learning more about Rocky Horror, you can check out the Glee episode, which is paying homage to the film and the play. This won't make you lose your Rocky Horror virginity though.
