The Horn Blows at Midnight (1945) is a comedy fantasy film directed by Raoul Walsh and starring Jack Benny. Its biggest claim to fame, apart from its star, is its failure at the box office. The film had the misfortune to be released only eight days after the death of U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This may have contributed to its poor reception, although the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel, also dealing with the afterlife, opened on Broadway at roughly the same time and became a hit. Benny often exploited its failure for laughs in his popular radio and television comedy series The Jack Benny Program.
Athanael (Jack Benny), the third trumpet player in the orchestra of a late night radio show sponsored by Paradise Coffee (motto: "It's Heavenly"), falls asleep listening to the announcer, who is doing his best to prove it is "the coffee that makes you sleep." Athanael dreams he is an angel (junior grade) and a trumpeter in the orchestra of Heaven. Due to the praise of his girlfriend Elizabeth (Alexis Smith), the assistant of the deputy chief of the department of small planet management (Guy Kibbee), he is given the mission of destroying planet 339001 (Earth) and its troublesome inhabitants by blowing the "Last Trumpet" at exactly midnight, signaling the end of the world.
@midnight with Chris Hardwick (shortened to and formerly exclusively titled @midnight) is an American late-night Internet-based combination scripted, rehearsed and improv panel game show hosted by Chris Hardwick, that airs Monday through Thursday nights on Comedy Central. The show is syndicated internationally in Australia on SBS2 and The Comedy Channel and Canada on MuchMusic. @midnight with Chris Hardwick premiered on October 21, 2013, before being renewed for a 40-week second season on November 14, 2013. It returned on January 6, 2014. It received a nomination for Outstanding Interactive Program at the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards.

Each episode features three comedians competing against one another in a series of Internet-inspired improv games, which vary from episode to episode.
Host Chris Hardwick begins each game by introducing some Internet meme trending that day, and asks the panel of comedians to craft a funny response or choose the correct answer among multiple choices. Contestants are awarded points by Hardwick (who loudly announces "Points!") for each funny or correct answer.
At Midnight is a 1913 American silent short film written by Gordon V. May starring Harry Van Meter, Violet Neitz, Louise Lester, Jack Richardson and Vivian Rich.
In 2015, George Moore Films produced a feature length remake of the film which will be released later in the year.
"At Midnight (My Love Will Lift You Up)" was a hit song by R&B/funk band Rufus featuring Chaka Khan in 1977. Released from their hit album, Ask Rufus, it spent two weeks at number one on the Hot Soul Singles chart and peaked at number thirty on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

Think cheesy romcoms but cheesier. It definitely felt like a Hallmark movie. Lol The actress is from Top Gun so I figured I'd give it a go. 😊

Midnight guitar strumming, being one with the moon.
Laying down my lyrics, near a lovely lagoon,
With a bucket of shrooms, and a staffy to pat.
Mans best friend, yeah I'm happy with that.
I wanna be happy, I bet that we all do.
Ninety percent think they'll never afford to.
What a shame what moneys done to the brain,
Any country any colour everyone's in it's range,
It's like (uh), but I dodge the missiles,
So duck down mother f**kers hip-hop's the issue.
I will not get played, like hansel and gretel,
Do it for the dollar, or dance with the devil,
You know why, cause I know how to fight back,
And transform this mic. stand into a spike bat.
So with a smile on my dial I write raps,
And hold down my ground till the empire strikes back,
It's me, and I'm a tell you how I feel,
I'm the real, I'll be flying with or without a deal.
Can't tackle what you can't touch,
It won't matter when you can't love.
So imagine me at your window singing this song,
With twenty eight thousand kids straight up singing along,
So through basics eyes, I'll be blessing the beat.
With a raw reputation like everly street, (yo) rest in peace.
I won't be put down, I won't be shackled.
I won't be held back, I won't be tackled.
I won't be locked up, I won't be thrown out.
Now that I know how to fly,
Now that I know how to fly. (yo)
I won't be put down, I won't be shackled.
I won't be held back, I won't be tackled.
I won't be locked up, I won't be thrown out.
Now that I know how to fly,
Now that I know how to fly.
Oh yeah, uh huh, it goes like this check it out, yo.
From the seas turn region I roam,
On my tree trapeze, through the leaves I have flown,
In stained glass skies, the evening unfolds,
Stay sharp like a beak of the crow.
I just creep on the low, through my secret window,
Feel the niche and my mic. plugs a leak in the boat.
Never hit the mainstream in the creek where I row,
Feel the wind in the willows from the breeze when it,
When it's freezing below, when I'm deep in the snow,
Opened up my heart, brought heat to the cold.
And I, won't follow sheep like a clone in this rat race,
They compete for the throne,
Treat freedom of speech like a breach of the code,
So I unleash and stampede the beat with a flow.(oh lord)
All I want is peace for the globe, yeah were so segregated,
It's like each to their own,
To my freaks and my peeps that I peep at the show,
I'm a keep this brief, can you reach in your soul,
Feel free with the seeds of the dreams that you grow,
Till they eat what they speak and you reap what you sow,
Left this message, like I heard a beep on the phone,
(at night on a beach see my teepee aglow,
Send smoke signals from the weed that we blow,
Hear the bigger picture like what the bleep do we know, you know)
I won't be put down, I won't be shackled.
I won't be held back, I won't be tackled.
I won't be locked up, I won't be thrown out.
Now that I know how to fly,
Now that I know how to fly. (yo)
I won't be put down, I won't be shackled.
I won't be held back, I won't be tackled.
I won't be locked up, I won't be thrown out.
Now that I know how to fly,
Now that I know how to fly.
Can every one just put one hand up in the air,
This is dedicated to a very close friend of ours just passed away, justin.
This is for you,
He's watching us right now guys, a very close friend of mine,
Meant a lot to me, meant a lot to our music,
And so I want you guys to take note,
When DJ izm drops this beat, I want you to bob with us.
Freaks and my peeps, peep at the show,
