i also like "touch me, tease me" by case from the nutty professor...maybe not the greatest, but i like it

Hopefully, Parade goes w/o saying

harlem blues- mo better blues

people in search of life-clockers

grease is the word-grease

love is love-electric dreams

heybaby said:

oh, thanks
we can listen 2 the soundtrack 2gether

Gotta add this one, too:

i will say this until the day i die because i dont think my answer will ever ever change..and for those of you who havent seen this film, subscribe to nexflix and see it:

Bagdade Cafe "Calling You" Jevette Steele....

perfection!!!....it sets the mood for the entire film....and it aids in the story telling..

thats appropriate use of music in movie (or tv show)...

i've been drinking heavily, but i'll go with "You Need Us", from Gilligan's Island..the one where Mary Ann, Ginger and Mrs Howell become the Honeybees...i just like that song...I never understood how you make a stereo system out of coconuts and bark, though.



"You Need Us"

As sung by the Honeybees

(Ginger Grant, Lovey Howell, and Mary Ann Summers)

All Three:

You need us, you need us.
Like a clam needs a shell.
Like a prisoner needs a cell.
Like a dingdong needs a bell.
You need us.

Ginger:

You need me, you need me.
Like a picture needs a star.
Like a golfer needs a par.
Like a teenager needs a car.
You need me.

Mary Ann:

You need me, you need me.
Like a baby needs a toy.
Like a wire needs a buoy.
Like a girl needs a boy.
You need me.

Lovey:

You need me, you need me.
Like a diamond needs a ring.
Like a harp needs a string.
Like a queen needs a king.
You need me.

All Three:

You need us, you need us.
Like a bee needs a buzz.
Like a peach needs its fuzz.
So that's why you need us.
Buzzzzz.

Oh that reminds me...there's an episode of Mad About You (I think the one where the newsstand where Paul and Jamie met burns down and it's like they never met and they end up in a bar) in which Ira's girlfriend Susannah sings a song that goes something like "oh darlin where have you been, where ya been, where ya been? all my lii-i-i--ife". It's so catchy but I can't find any info anywhere.
