The Big Chill

[schindlerpiste]

Tonight, I will watch it. I haven't seen it in 20 yrs., but I remember it is a GREAT movie with a GREAT soundtrack.

[BeanDip4All]

I love the Big Chill!

With that all star cast, it's like the da silvano of 80's movies

"I'm on the lost hope diet."

[Benny Profane]

Just remember, that was a rip off of a John Sayles movie, The Return of the Seacaucus Seven. He didn't see a dime.

And Motown is lame.

[Hutch]

Bill Hurt has a great role in that film.

[Benny Profane]

Check him out almost 30 years later in The History of Violence.

[BeanDip4All]

Motown is lame.

excuuuuuse me Benny?! without motown, what else would I play when I am baking cupcakes and dancing around my kitchen all silly in my apron and using the spatula as the mic?!

That is how I read it.








The Big Chill soundtrack was my parents "party album" for about a decade.

[Plakespear]

Bill Hurt has a great role in that film.

And Kevin Costner gave the best performance of his career!

[schindlerpiste]

Kevin Kline?

[hutash]

Great movie with a lot of great songs, (but I hate sound tracks, original albums only please.) That being said, I am now having fantasies of BD4All dancing around her kitchen singing Bad Moon Arisin' wearing nothing but an apron.

[Benny Profane]

Kevin Kline?

Costner was the suicide victim they all came to bid bye bye. Not a word spoken.

[MapleSyrup]

The Stones are not motown, Benny (although 'The Big Chill' soundtrack was a parental favorite for quite a while)

YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT
(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

Choir:
I saw her today at a reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she would meet her connection
At her feet was her footloose man

No, you can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
And if you try sometime you find
You get what you need

I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
At her feet was, footloose man

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, well you might find
You get what you need

Oh yea-ay (hey-hey-hey, oooh)

And I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singin', 'We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't, we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse'
Sing it to me, now

(You can't always get what you want)
(You can't always get what you want)
(You can't always get what you want)
But if you try sometimes, well you just might find
You get what you need
Ooh baby, yeah, ooh

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standin' in line with Mr. Jimmy
A-man, did he look pretty ill

We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was 'dead'
I said to him

(You can't always get what you want) well no!
(You can't always get what you want) tell ya baby
(You can't always get what you want) no
But if you try sometimes, you just might find, mmm!
Mmm! you get what you need
Ooh yes! Woo!

(Instrumental & choir) Ooow-ooh!

You get what you need
Yeah!
Ooow, babe!
Ooh, yeah

I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well, I could tell by her blood-stained hands
Say it!

(You can't always get what you want) yeah!
(You can't always get a-what you want) ooo-yeah, baby!
(You can't always get a-what you want)
But if you try sometime, you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need

Ooh, yeah!
Ooh, baby!
Woo!

Ah, you can't always get a-what you want
No, no baby

You can't always get a-what you want
Tellin' you right now

You can't always get what you want, mmm!
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find, that ya
Get what you need
Oooh, yeah!

I'm tellin' the truth, babe

Ooow-ooh!
Ooow-ooh!
Ooow-ooh!........
(Instrumental & choir to end fade)

There were many songs that are most definitely not Motown on the sound track/movie. But the fact that they were alumni from Michigan State in the 60s explains the large number of Motown hits.
