Empire of the Sun is a 1987 American epic coming-of-age war film based on J. G. Ballard’s semi-autobiographical 1984 novel of the same name. Spielberg was attracted to directing the film because of a personal connection to Lean’s films and World War II topics.

Australian electro-pop duo Empire of the Sun possess a well-proven ability to entertain. Empire of the Sun began as the side project of musicians Luke Steele of The Sleepy Jackson and Nick Littlemore of Pnau.

According to the words of the Japanese envoy himself, that name was chosen because the country was so close to where the sun rises. In any event, the name stuck, and for the last 1400 years or so, the world has referred to Japan as Nippon, the land of the rising sun. Fortune Cookies Were Invented in Japan, Not China.

Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore appear, for now, to be able to work together again as Empire of the Sun. They formed their spectacular dreampop band almost 10 years ago, with extraordinary international success. Littlemore is in Hollywood, in a beautiful house with a splendid garden and a home studio.

We dress up that way because we want to match the melody, the harmony and the message. It feels like wearing normal clothing would be doing a disservice to what we’re trying to create – which is from another world. This time around the costumes you and Luke are wearing are noticably different.

The Fleetwood Mac Dreams challenge was born after TikTok user @420doggface208, real name Nathan Apodaca, posted a clip of himself riding a skateboard and drinking cranberry juice whilst listening to the classic tune and singing along. Yesterday, even Mick Fleetwood himself took on the TikTok Dreams challenge.

It all started when Idaho Falls resident Nathan Apodaca posted a clip of himself in early October, sipping cranberry juice and lip synching to “Dreams” as he skateboarded down the street after his vehicle broke down on the way to work. The video went viral and Apodaca was gifted a truckload of Ocean Spray.

Meanwhile, Apodaca revealed that he was only skateboarding that day because his car broke down, so Ocean Spray, thankful for the spontaneous publicity, gifted him with a new, cranberry-colored truck with a truck bed full of bottles of Cran-Raspberry juice.

In the US, “Dreams” sold more than one million copies and reached the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100, the band’s only number-one single in the country. In Canada, “Dreams” also reached number one on the RPM Top 100 Singles chart….Year-end charts.
