Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
Not "The Blues Brothers"..
hint.. it was in a movie with a heartbreaker of an ending for the main character.
Posted by oneyedwilly (Member # 8730) on :
damn this is hard 'heartbreaker of an ending for main character' hmmmm perhaps its ET - LOL ive got a couple in mind really but because of the ending and the time it was released im going to go with one of my favourite 80s which i dont have...last american virgin.????
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
"The Last American Virgin" is correct! There is an awesome thread from awhile back with tons of comments about the movie. I'll find it and bump it.
Posted by oneyedwilly (Member # 8730) on :
thanks for the bump valley, just noticed it and going to read through it now to see what people have to say about it. ok next song is an easy one for you Love my Way - psych furs
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
Thanks.. of course "Love My Way" is from my all-time fav movie "Valley Girl"..

Posted by oneyedwilly (Member # 8730) on :

Posted by mamamiasweetpeaches (Member # 1715) on :
Inj Your Wildest Dreams was from MANNEQUIN
Okay. Heres one : Infatuation by ROD STEWART
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
"The Sure Thing"? You know, I was going to originally say "Private Lessons", but I think that was "Hot Legs" & "Tonight's The Night"..
Posted by oneyedwilly (Member # 8730) on :
hhmmmmm very difficult, my first guess was going to be 'some kind of wonderful' but after listening to the song i realised that its from a movie that i really do love for the reason its got some great songs including dance hall days - one of my favs -Sure Thing you beat to it valley.

Sweet Soul Music was in "the In Crowd", not the Blues Brothers.
We are DEVO
Posted by pork pie mcfly (Member # 6802) on :
Kash just a guess but is it Predator???
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
Devo is correct about "Sweet Soul Music" from our hidden gem The In Crowd.
And pork pie mcFly.. I believe you are correct.. has there really been four Predator movies? .. wow.. I remember the original was a kick tassh ride!
Posted by pork pie mcfly (Member # 6802) on :
Thanks Valley, I thought I was right but I can say I have only watched the first 2 predator movies...didn't know they had made 4 of them.
Right the next song...
Good Man In a Bad Time - Ian Hunter
Posted by Kash (Member # 297) on :
quote:Originally posted by pork pie mcfly: Kash just a guess but is it Predator???
That's right.
Belive it or not but there have been four predator movies in total: The original classic (87), so-so sequel (90) not that bad Aliens vs Predator (04) and a sequel to that which I've not seen...and a Robert Rodreguiz produced Predator movie released this Summer.
Posted by oneyedwilly (Member # 8730) on :
this song im sure is in horror movie maybe something like a vampire or werewolf movie...ahhhhhh this is killing me pork pie....ahhhh i know this .... i can just see vampires. i got nothing on this one.
Posted by oneyedwilly (Member # 8730) on :

Posted by oneyedwilly (Member # 8730) on :

excellent - its also in dream a little dream.
