i love the Org!!
I'm also glad that i'm not the only one who took 20+ years to notice this!

I remembered there was a link in the film but with age I had forgot. Now the goonies wasn't that a tee shirt or a poster if my memory serves me correctly.

and wasnt Delirious used as the title track for a John Candy film called ermm Delirious

I LOVE me some John Hughes nobody captured teenage angst on film better than him. I'm starting to think he must be a HUGE Prince fan because he also included the song 1999 in Sixteen Candles. How many of ya'll noticed that when the school bus leaves the school in the afternoon that the kids on the bus are whistling 1999 on kazoos in unison??? I liketa died when I figured that out! I might be late mentioning this though cuz I'm sure this has been mentioned before.

He's on Corey's (actor's name not character's name) t-shirt. It's the black t- w/ PR on the front.

there's a Prince song in the background of Weird Science too. Only it's a cover of a Prince song, not the original. I cant recall the track, but I think it happens during the party sequence.

Tom said:

Actually, now that you mention it, Private Joy is also played in Weird Science. I think it's in the scene when they're walking through the mall. And I do believe it's the actual version not a cover. I'm starting to think John Hughes is a lil obsessed with Prince but it's all good.

I always wondered why the hell she brought the album to school with her. I mean, it's not like they had a turntable at school to play it on or anything. Maybe she brought it to lend to someone.

vainandy said:

Yeah, I know, but if I remember correctly she was studying the lyrics on the other side of the album sleeve.

[b][i]I remember that I have it on VHS and that part is in there. That is also the back of the 1999 album as well ( used to have it too) I even had a turntable with it. Darn roommate's kids destroyed everything I had.

Or is it Wendy thinking at highschool 'I will kick that japanese guitarplayer from his band one day'

John Hughes ruled the 80's.

ElectricBlue said:

still the same today, neon blue
i could totally relate 2 the ally sheedy character
still can

btw, the 1st time i saw the 1999 album
was when a girl brought it to school, 7th grade
we were in this class of 10 or so kids
it's was an elective called "i'm okay, you're okay"
and we were sharing our favorite albums that day
i brought billy squier's don't say no
but something about this chick (not too unlike sheedy)
and the butterfinger between her legs (that's another story)
made me want to own this album too

This made me love the movie even more
Bought it on DVD a while ago,at very low price...aah memories

Omg I never noticed that!

vainandy said:

They have some sort of music player in the library because they play it in the dance scene.

Plus, she's gonna need something to listen to when she runs away to Afghanistan, what better record than 1999?

Get out!!! It sounds JUST like the verse: "I was dreaming when I wrote this, forgive me if I go too fast." I ALWAYS sing along when that part comes on. Try it, it fits perfectly. Maybe that's where Prince "borrowed" it from. I'ma have to dust off my DVD and confirm this.

Nothinbutjoy said:

I remember it well. I had that exact same shirt! A Purple Rain shirt, with the album artwork on the front, the "love symbol" on the back!!!

really cool !

Nothinbutjoy said:

There is a poster hanging in his room in the "Goonies"(The Revolution poster with all the bandmembers posing, that came with the PR album), its at the part where he says "I cant wait to get out of here" right before he pounces on his big brother while his brother is lifting weights. Right before they leave to go on the "treasure hunt", at the very begining. I have the movie as well. Its my favorite

Im pretty sure it was "Contraversy" when they were walking down the stairs, before they were going to meet the Wyatt's parents before the party.Ill have to read the ending credits to find out which song it was.

Ahh, the classic John Hughes years, i love these films, and they all had pretty good soundtracks, i really like "Pretty in Pink" by the psychedelic furs. These fils were released when i was in my not quite teen years so i kinda grew up with them, they dont make em like they used to.

I know, I've seen the movie a bunch of times and never caught that. Totally insane.

Next time I watch my DVD, I'll see if I can catch it. Man, that's cool
