Movie director Judd Apatow told Variety why The Wallflower’s song One Headlight came to be included in the film The King of Staten Island. Said Judd “When [my wife] Leslie and I drove to Ralphs to buy pregnancy kits -- when we discovered Maude was coming -- that was the song we heard on the radio.” And, “that song was very popular when Pete [Davidson] was young, and he would listen to it in the car with his dad all the time. [So], it is a very special song to him.”
The King of Staten Island was a somewhat autobiographical film by the writer and comedian Pete Davidson…it mirrors Pete’s life, where his firefighter father passed away way too early. And the lyric from One Headlight “That's when they said I lost my only friend” surely resonated with Pete.
The sing-a-long to One Headlight in the bar is a bit of a comical scene, because not everyone is clear on the all of Jacob Dylan’s lyrics. But they do nail the chorus: Hey, come on try a little / nothing is forever / got to be something better than in the middle
The video for “Aquarius” contains footage of Pamela Courson filmed by Jim Morrison in Corsica, France, in 1971. Permission came from the current owner of the original tape, Jason. The full video can be watched on his YouTube channel, oneheadlight.
Here's some of the original, unedited video.
