Awesome Old Song of the Week: "Supermodel" by Jill Sobule

Jill Sobule's five minutes of fame began in 1995 with her song I Kissed a Girl, and peaked later that year when Supermodel was included on the soundtrack to the movie "Clueless."  The thing I remember about that soundtrack was that it featured a lot of big names (Counting Crows, Radiohead, Beastie Boys, Coolio, etc.), but not any of their best work.

It's kind of weird (and somewhat disturbing) that the cell phone situation at the beginning of this video was an obvious joke in the film at the time, but it's something that I would assume happens with regularity today.



And random but slightly related, "Clueless" was also basically the acting debut of Paul Rudd:
