Who Framed Roger Rabbit

Who Framed Roger Rabbit?



I've been listening to Amy Irving's rendition of Why Don't You Do Right nonstop since I happened upon it a few months ago. The soundtrack is currently out of print but you can likely order the import online. The MP3 version of the song is available for download below and you also view Jessica Rabbit's sultry performance of song from the film.

Big Love


Don't you just love the way she sings this song? I meant to put this up right after it aired but couldn't find the time to do so. I also plan on adding all of the other songs that have been featured on this show to the blog in mid-September.

Adventures in Babysitting


ADVENTURES IN BABYSITTING

AIB is a classic 80's comedy movie that I never cease to enjoy. If no one else had uploaded to YouTube my favorite scene from this movie I swore I'd have to share. Luckily one user (with amazing taste in movies if I might add) has supplied us all with this treasure to enjoy.

Fast Forward

FAST FORWARD

Once upon a time I drove my family completely insane by incessantly watching this movie when I was younger as my love affair with moving to New York to make it against the odds as a dancer took hold of me. So imagine my delight to stumble onto this gem one afternoon while surfing channels. I'd already been making clips of this movie to add to the blog from an old tape in my collection but I couldn't pass up an opportunity to upgrade on quality. Sure the movie is fairly cheesy but I am proud to claim it as one of my favorite guilty pleasure movies. Since I know I'm not alone on this one I'm adding Ipod compatible videos and a movie version of the soundtrack.

Lyrics to Lauryn's Impromptu Rap

Here I go on the microphone about to wreck it,
You thought a female MC couldn't do it but now check it
If the blues is what you choose I'll kick it Count Basie style
But if bebop is what you rock I'll kick the Monk or some Miles
Won't grab no Phillies, my style is willing if you let me
Or if I choose to 'cause women's lib said I don't have to
So think again before you test a sister
'cause with my girls behind me we got lots of power mister...
Oh oh
Who gots the flo' ...

Thanks to Standbyme on the IMDB forum for clearing that up for me, I won't even tell you all what I thought she said.
