Music and Lyrics


Our hero plays an 1980s has-been popstar, who somehow wangles the job of writing lyrics for a new song by an up-and-coming Britney Spears clone. Unfortunately he does not have a clue about writing lyrics. Luckily help is at hand in the form of his plant waterer, a kooky young woman. As they work on the song, they find themselves working on a relationship too... Early reviews have been negative.
