Favorite/dumbfounding music scenes in movies/TV series.


 A few days ago I recorded/watched this movie (well most of it anyway) mainly due to Summer reruns on our cable-TV provider.

After being welmed/overwelmed by "the scene" I Googled it to discover that the actor played/sang the song in the movie hisself.

I never payed much attention to Hall & Oats when they were on the air decades ago but when I listened to a band (Fritz and the...) doing a version  of "Sara Smile" on "Daryl’s Place" I started revisiting their song library - posting about it here - I think.

Anyway, this is a Killer version of an otherwise good song, IMO.

One of my other favorites is the "Do it My Way" scene from "Sid and Nancy" that I used to play when I got home from work in the 80’s in order to relax.

@dekay, thanks for getting my morning started with this great post, absolutely love where this might lead and I will respond in kind but need to give this one some thought. WTS can't wait to see other peoples' responses. I had to go back and watch the Do it my way scene, memory had me thinking it was Iggy, but Oldman was great. Enjoy the music

Correction:

"Sara Smile" was performed by Fitz and the Tantrums (not Fritz...) on Daryl Hall’s show.

Always been bad with names.

The song that launched the artist Rumer was "Sara’s Smile".

She actually sang it with Daryl on his show:

(LOVE that show!  The episode at Christmas with Shelby Lynne is one of my favorites).
