      @mikekaraoke 24 дні тому

      It was only released in the US for some reason, considering they had record deals in other parts of Europe etc to release it a well. Although the soundtrack was a hit though so at least that happened!

    • @SmartRobot-wc2fb
      @SmartRobot-wc2fb 23 дні тому

      ​@@mikekaraoke I guess it was sort of a last minute song/release for the movie only that got lost in the way. This was right after "Rough Justice", when their popularity in the US was at its peak.

  • @mysticmerman

    This is their best song and should've been a huge hit. The melody, harmony and slow groove are perfect. It doesn't make sense.

    • @SmartRobot-wc2fb
      @SmartRobot-wc2fb 6 місяців тому +2

      @mysticmerman: I don't think it's their best song but it's close. I also love "Rough Justice". Both this and "Rough Justice are definitely some of their very best songs. There's also "Dance With a Stranger" from the 'True Confessions' album that is a beautiful more R&B oriented ballad, where their voices put together sound so refreshingly melodic. Overall, at least these 3 songs seem to be their best because they manage to capture pretty well the spirit of the 80's and from their own generation. Sometimes what's good and honest from an artistic point of view it's not commercially which is unfair...but life is many times unfair...

    As was common with these theme songs, the song is only in the movie for a moment, and as background during a short pool scene. This movie was advertised on MTV and I went around quoting Chris Penn's line "It's casual," which really doesn't make any sense. I would forget about the movie and discover about a decade later after a random video store pick. I just bought it on DVD; no Blu-Ray yet.

    You wanna live fast, cutting it fine
    Make hay while the sun shines
    No one there to say, you're wrong or right
    You've waited a lifetime
    Burning all your bridges tonight
    This is the wild life
    It's the wild life
    Wild life
    This is the wild life
    No stone left unturned
    Jump in the fire you're gonna get burned
    You might lose your way
    When you come out to play the wild life
    I may be too young but I've seen and done
    Everything that they say is fun
    I gotta find out for myself
    In the end there's no one else
    Every time I try to win I lose
    I'm tired of waiting
    Now I'm gonna make my own rules

    MOVIE WASNT A BIG ENOUGH HIT......STILL IF THE LADIES HAD THE RIGHTS TO THE SONG
    IM SURE THEY WOULD
    HAVE PERFORMED IT
    WIDELY....BAD MANAGEMENT...BY THE
    RECORD COMPANY...

    I so adore the song but shoving the poodle in the microwave in the video was a real no no.

    I never liked when artists wrote a song to match a movie’s title. This unfortunately has happened here. Just didn’t work. Creative freedom.
