Adam Sandler: Encyclopedia II - Mr. Roboto - Meaning of the song

The literal meaning of the song is to tell the ficticious story of Robert Orin Charles Kilroy (ROCK), a rocker who was placed in jail by Dr. Righteous, and his escape from said prison via a robot — a protest to the anti-rock movement of the era. However, the deeper interpretation of the song is said to describe the increasing amounts of factory automation in Japan by robots. DeYoung sings: "The problem's plain to see, too much technology. Machines to save our lives, machines de-humanize" (it is also often argued that the first line ...

She also played a leading role in Cradle Will Rock, a story of a theatre show in the 1930's directed by Tim Robbins. Though she won the title role of Frank McCourt's mother in the adaptation of his much-loved memoir, Angela's Ashes, the film underperformed. Later, she appeared as a member of R ...

There is no definitive origin of the word dude. The Compact Oxford Dictionary suggests it comes from a German dialect word meaning 'fool'. The Random House Historical Dictionary of American Slang cites an 1877 reference in an unpublished private letter of the painter and sculptor known for Western themes, Frederick Remington: "Don't send me any more women or any more dudes," he told a correspondent who was sending him sketches.
