Just watched "Happy Feet" on DVD for the first time. Quite a triumph! A four star movie.

And, also a very Princely movie.

I always knew "Kiss" and "The Song of the Heart" were in the movie, but I never realized just how prominently "Kiss" is feature in the "ouvre" of the movie; it's a very integral piece.

And of course the movie closes featuring "Song of the Heart" with a little showcase for it.

Of course, the envirnontmentally conscious theme ring with all things Prince.

I imagine, but I don't know, that "Kiss" was used before Prince actually got involved? Anyone know the story?

I do remember reading that Prince initially declined when asked if the they could use "Kiss", however WB persisted and allowed him a private screening to convince him that the song was used in an appropriate and positive context. Apparently he was thrilled with the screening and recorded "Song Of The Heart" shortly after - another one of his infamous intuitive 'recorded-it-in-less-than-a-day' things. Sorry, can't remember the source.

I loved the movie.

The music video was cool
I like the way they made it look like the 's were singing the song.
Nice Editing

I've literally watched this movie dozens of times while babysitting And everytime I see something I've missed while watching it before.
Really a fun and educational show, packaged with beautiful settings and a great story line.
Robins Williams, Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman, Elijah Wood, Britney Murphy are some of the voices behind these hilarious and delightful 's

Love this movie....so many good messages and the music was so appropriate.

my favorite line from this movie is when Ramon says
"let me tell sometink to joo"

i enjoyed the Kiss part of the movie too.

I love this movie for so many reasons. People who don't like it needs their meds adjusted.

Haven't seen the movie yet but really want to

Tap dancing Penguins and Prince music! Sounds good to me

I have recently started Tap Class so I might be able to pick up some good tips lol

Too cute!

Moronic environmental propoganda.

Yay! Reminds of the tap dance i learned to "Song of the Heart"!
But no one in my class was a Prince fan, so they all made fun of it, and the different voices.
