Lyrically Speaking 4/6/16

#1 Post by elwoodblues » Tue Apr 05, 2016 8:23 pm

This one oughta be fun. Each of these was either the theme song or was performed during a memorable scene from a comedy movie that came out between 1967 and 1984 (inclusive, for you nitpickers). For each song there are four possible points: one for the title, one for the artist, one for the name of the movie and one if you can quote a line from the movie. For songs performed within the movie I will accept the names of the actors or characters who performed it or someone who recorded it in real life for the artist point.

There are only seven songs today because I could not come up with another recognizable song from a quotable comedy, and I really wanted to use this theme.


1. You wanna listen to the man
Pay attention to the magistrate
And while I got you in the mood
Listen to your
Own heart beatin'
Own heart beatin'

2. Come let's mix, where Rockefellers walk with sticks
And umbrellas in their mitts

3. We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files
We'd like to help you learn to help yourself.
Look around you all you see are sympathetic eyes,
Stroll around the grounds until you feel at home.

4. Livin' his life one day at a time
He's showing himself a really good time
He's laughin' about the way
They want him to be

5. If there's something weird
And it don't look good

6. Now waaait a minute
I feel all right (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Ooh)
Now that I got my woman
I feel all right (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

7. Rain and wind and weather
Hell bent for leather
Wishin' my gal was by my side
All the things I'm missin'
Good vittles, love and kissin'
Are waiting at the end of my ride

I'm Alright - Kenny Loggins - Caddyshack - "Be the ball" (That's lame, but it's all I can come up with. BTW, the song Kenny wrote for Caddyshack II was much better than this one...)

2. Come let's mix, where Rockefellers walk with sticks
And umbrellas in their mitts
Puttin' On The Ritz - Taco - Rocky Horror Picture Show - "Let's do the time warp again!" (I hope that counts as a line... you're 0 for 2 on movies I've seen so far, not that I'd be surprised if I don't go 0 for 7...)

5. If there's something weird

Ghostbusters - Ray Parker, Jr. - Ghostbusters - "Don't cross the streams!!!!" (.200! And to continue a theme, the song Bobby Brown did for Ghostbusters II is much better...)

Sounds like it's being sung by a man wearing assless chaps. Did you accidentally put a gay western in this game?

I think Lizbit and I will do better today than yesterday. That won't take much.

We know this song -- Puttin' on the Ritz -- at least four ways, but the one that seems to fit the question best is from Young Frankenstein, sung by Mr. Peter Boyle and Mr. Gene Wilder (as Mr. Monster and Mr. Dr. Frankenstein.) Movie quote: "That's FRONK-en-steen."

The other ones we know are as sung by Mr. Fred Astaire in top hat and tails in a movie called "Blue Skies," or something like that; Mr. Taco, in a clunky music video with a white suit; and our mom, who wrote a parody of the song for a show she was in. Her version was about how that Russian guy could run for president of the U.S., and it was called Putin on the Ritz. She still has her top hat and tail coat, which she bought from a Steampunk store on-line. She made us listen to her sing it at least 400,000 times, but it was never in a movie, so far as we know.
5. If there's something weird
And it don't look good
Something, something, something
In the neighborhood.

Ghostbusters. The movie name is all I've got. I don't know who those people are, or what any of them said, if anything at all.
7. Rain and wind and weather
Hell bent for leather

This is the Theme from Rawhide, which I think was an old-timey television show. It was sung by Mr. Elwood Blues and his brother in The Blues Brothers movie. Is that you, Mr. elwood? If so, you are very handsome with a nice voice! We like that song because of the line, "Keep them doggies rollin', Rawhide." I think he meant "dogies," like little calves without moms in the herd, but we always hear it as doggies, and we smile. Lizbit thinks it will make it a good campfire song to sing at her rodeo camp.

Lizbit and I have started to watch movies every now and then, when my mom isn't home, ever since my sister figured out how to get them with the Fire Stick thingie on the tv. Sometimes we get a different movie than we expect, but that's okay. It's hard to punch the right buttons on the controller with our toenails.

My picture shows one way to keep a dogie rollin'. I hope nobody thought they scooped them up in balls and pushed the calves across the prairie.

Now that I got my woman
I feel all right (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Shout - The Isley Brothers - Ferris Bueller's Day Off - "Cameron's so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you'd have a diamond"


7. Rain and wind and weather
Hell bent for leather
Wishin' my gal was by my side
All the things I'm missin'
Good vittles, love and kissin'
Are waiting at the end of my ride

Rawhide - Blues Brothers - Blues Brothers - "We're on a mission from God"

Crap! I brain-farted "Shout" & "Twist and Shout" because I was sure "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" would be here. There's your 8th quotable movie!!

I was also in a rush to get it posted, so I forgot to say that it WAS a really fun game!

This one oughta be fun. Each of these was either the theme song or was performed during a memorable scene from a comedy movie that came out between 1967 and 1984 (inclusive, for you nitpickers). For each song there are four possible points: one for the title, one for the artist, one for the name of the movie and one if you can quote a line from the movie. For songs performed within the movie I will accept the names of the actors or characters who performed it or someone who recorded it in real life for the artist point.

There are only seven songs today because I could not come up with another recognizable song from a quotable comedy, and I really wanted to use this theme.


1. You wanna listen to the man
Pay attention to the magistrate
And while I got you in the mood
Listen to your
Own heart beatin'
Own heart beatin'

"I'm Alright" - Kenny Loggins - Caddyshack -

2. Come let's mix, where Rockefellers walk with sticks
And umbrellas in their mitts

"Puttin' on the Ritz" - Gene Wilder and Peter Boyle - Young Frankenstein - "Walk this way."

3. We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files
We'd like to help you learn to help yourself.
Look around you all you see are sympathetic eyes,
Stroll around the grounds until you feel at home.

4. Livin' his life one day at a time
He's showing himself a really good time
He's laughin' about the way
They want him to be

"Arthur's Theme" - Christopher Cross - Arthur -

5. If there's something weird
And it don't look good

"Ghostbusters" - Ray Parker Jr. - Ghostbusters - "I've been slimed."

6. Now waaait a minute
I feel all right (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Ooh)
Now that I got my woman
I feel all right (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

"Shout" - Otis Day - Animal House - "Food fight!"

7. Rain and wind and weather
Hell bent for leather
Wishin' my gal was by my side
All the things I'm missin'
Good vittles, love and kissin'
Are waiting at the end of my ride

Theme from "Rawhide" - The Good Old Blues Brothers Boys Band - The Blues Brothers - "We're on a mission from God."
