[17:16] <Mike_H> Upon release, the song received an unexpected burst of promotion: Jill Phelps, musical director of the ABC soap opera General Hospital, decided to use "Rise" as the musical backdrop for the rape of Laura Webber by Luke Spencer. For several weeks afterward, the recording was played on the show to evoke the memory of Luke's act. The added exposure in an extremely popular program boosted sales to the point of selling more th [17:17] <Mike_H> Fluffernutter, Rise is a very good song in its own right but I can't help but think "oh that's Laura's rape song" :| [17:17] <Fluffernutter> oh, you're talking about the show [17:17] <Fluffernutter> i never actually watched it [17:17] <Mike_H> yeah [17:17] <KimiNewt> Laura's rape song? [17:17] <Fluffernutter> only heard about it from my sister [17:18] <Mike_H> KimiNewt, when Laura was raped by Luke at the disco on General Hospital [17:18] <Mike_H> back in 1979 [17:18] <Mike_H> this song was playing in the background [17:18] <KimiNewt> That's awful! [17:18] <Mike_H> and they used it a lot, and the song was pushed to #1 as a result [17:18] <Mike_H> on the pop chart [17:18] <KimiNewt> Wait, there was rape on television in 1979?! [17:18] <Qcoder00> Mike_H: General Hospital? [17:18] <Mike_H> Qcoder00, yes [17:18] <Qcoder00> Which Soap is that? [17:19] <Qcoder00> The one sent up without mercy in Tootsie? [17:19] <Mike_H> Qcoder00, General Hospital is now the longest-running soap on US daytime TV [17:19] <Mike_H> lol no [17:19] <Mike_H> Qcoder00, they never did say which soap that Tootsie based their parody on, but the whispers at the time was that it was actually Search for Tomorrow. [17:19] <Qcoder00> The 'soap' in Tootsie is 'Southwest General' and it was my understanding it was a send up on ONE of the then airing US soaps [17:20] <Mike_H> Qcoder00, it was probably a hodgepodge of all soap stereotypes [17:20] <Qcoder00> Note in terms of awful daytime soaps.... [17:20] <Mike_H> perhaps it was General Hospital though [17:20] <Mike_H> at the time it was one of two hospital soaps. [17:20] <Mike_H> and it was the highest rated one.

[17:24] <KimiNewt> being jewish, the 'soaps' I've seen tend to be ancestral [17:24] <Mike_H> Qcoder00, well, soaps were always about love [17:25] <Mike_H> The 1970s and 1980s birthed the idea of the "one true couple" ideal, or the "supercouple" [17:25] <Gfoley4> o shit [17:25] <Mike_H> in fact General Hospital back then, Luke and Laura, that is probably the best known supercouple [17:25] <Mike_H> despite the fact that he raped her, she fell in love with him and they were married [17:25] <Gfoley4> I tried plugging the charger into my laptop and it made a blue spark :( [17:25] <Mike_H> Gfoley4, :\ [17:26] <Qcoder00> Anyhow , I'm here on IRC, because I was doing a lot of image stuff and my head started to feel dizzy [17:26] <Qcoder00> :( [17:26] <Mike_H> Qcoder00, and a lot of people were emotionally invested in Luke and Laura, so all the other soaps ended up creating at least one "supercouple" to try to get the same success �15[17:26] * Gfoley4 (~Gfoley4@wikipedia/Gfoley4) Quit (Quit: Computer is sparking–not good�) [17:26] <KimiNewt> Qcoder00 - I would like acknowledgement of my joke. [17:26] <Qcoder00> Do extended periods of wiki-editign give you headaches? [17:26] <Mike_H> All My Children created the first black "supercouple" for example [17:26] <Qcoder00> KimiNewt: I didn't understand it [17:26] <KimiNewt> They made soaps out of jews in the holocaust �03[17:26] * jorm (~bharris@wikimedia/jorm) has joined #wikipedia-en [17:26] <Mike_H> KimiNewt, wat [17:27] <Qcoder00> I don't make holocaust jokes [17:27] <KimiNewt> or something, might be an urban legend [17:27] <KimiNewt> but it's a very famous one if it is �03[17:27] * The_Thing (~nnscript@wikipedia/The-Thing-That-Should-Not-Be) has joined #wikipedia-en [17:27] <Peter-C> http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=LJP1DphOWPs [17:27] <Qcoder00> HI Peter-C [17:27] <Qcoder00> About that script?
