JAMIE’S PLACE FOR STUFF

A Stroll Though Memory, Time and Politics With Stops Along The Way

5 On Friday – Let’s Go To The Movies

Long after the film is over the sound track or theme song lingers on. This week is dedicated to those movies. These are some of my favorites.

John Travolta will walk forever to this one:

You played it for her, you can play it for me. Play it Sam.

Have to include Judy and the second version of A Star Is Born

And Judy’s daughter: Liza with a Z

Even a sad ending is made better by a great song, particularly when sung by Harry Nilsson.

AFI (American Film Institute) has a great list of 100 songs from movies. Check it out. How many have you seen?

About Me

Retired great grandmother living in the Northwest US. Former radio Public Service Director and National Accounts Manager.

I'm a hair-dishevelled heilan' coo,
Hamish McKay be ma name;
Welcome tae this dreichet glen
I'm cursed tae ca' ma hame.
Depending on the mood I'm in
I'll raise ma horns on high,
An' if I like the look o' ye
I'll likely let ye by.
But should I dinnae like the look
O' ye, then tak great care,
I'll raise ma horns on high again,
Go on, get oot o'there!
So whether welcome yae or nae,
I'll raise these horns sae mean,
Then ye shall ken ma meaning
By the twinkle o' ma een.
