Iwas just watching the new "Wild At Heart" DVD today...I had forgotten that Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game" was used so prominantly (and effectively) within the film.....

Madonna ususally does a movie theme song in-between her regular albums,so don't be surpirsed if we hear about a new Madonna song being used in a movie this year.
