The Music Quiz

Winner.

Edit: ohhhh I forgot…was it Girl 8?
It’s weird that he had so many, right?

Edit: edit: Girl 6. My bad.

Disney very much claim they are the 1st with Snow White

I mean…fair, but I’m talking about pop artists.
As in lending themselves to a film for mutual benefit.
I’m sure I’m not explaining that right, but I know what I mean.

  1. John Hughes wanted Nik Kershaw on this soundtrack, but the record company said no. Instead, he asked session musos to cover it. Film and song.

14 Film about a writer trying to follow up a successful novel, with a soundtrack themed on great singer-songwriters.

16 Self-serving semi-documentary about punk band. Weird and kinda cool soundtrack, though.

Jeepers just home from work and another comp announced and nearly completed don’t any of you have jobs

16 Sid and Nancy

Right band. Wrong film.

8 Wouldn’t it be good from the pretty in pink soundtrack.

No idea who it was but it was a terrible cover.

My understanding is that Hughes wanted the song regardless of what the record company said, so got Danny Hutton of Three Dog Night to cover it with session musos. ‘Danny Hutton Hitters’ don’t seem to be a real band, but I’m prepared to stand corrected.

jeez that went quick

is 14 high fidelity?

Great film and soundtrack, but no.

Hint and anecdote.
The film is by Curtis Hanson who also directed L.A. Confidential.

He was very, very upset when Mrs Wim informed him that Waiting For The Miracle also appeared on Natural Born Killers, as he thought the tracks he’d chosen were first-timers, and was especially upset at the idea his film might be associated with that one.

No :squinting_face_with_tongue:

14 - That’s it, I couldn’t remember the name of the movie but I remembered it was Michael Douglas as the writer and the movie had lots of Dylan songs.
