That Song From That Movie – Details, episodes & analysis

BAD MOON RISING

Spooky season is upon us! That means it's time for the annual Halloween special of That Song From That Movie. This year we are tackling John Landis' cult classic An American Werewolf in London. We have not 1, not 2 but 3 different versions of "Blue Moon" by Bobby Vinton, Sam Cooke, and The Marcels respectively. Plus "Bad Moon Rising" by Creedence Clearwater Revival. (Are you spotting a theme?) Alex is from the future, Ben is the only person responding and Dietrich gets confused with Teen Wolf.

ROCKY VS DRAGO

We're stepping back in the ring for the third time for Sly Stallone's fourth outing as the Italian Stallion; we're breaking down the legendary Rocky IV. James Brown is strutting his stuff to "Living in America", John Cafferty is soundtracking one of the all time great montages with "Heart's on Fire", Robert Tepper gets a quick shout out for No Easy Way Out and Survivor attempt to follow up "Eye of the Tiger" with Burning Hearts. Ben's invited everyone over, Dietrich gives Bullet for my Valentine too much credit and Alex still needs a new microphone.

GET LOST IN SALTBURN

We are jumping on the bandwagon by chatting all things Saltburn, starring Barry Keoghan, Jacob Elordi, Rosamud Pike and *ahum* little Barry Keoghan. It's been quite divisive with critics, so how will the Emerald Fennell movie land with us? On the music front, we mention the many songs in the movie but all the focus is on the Sophie Ellis-Bextor hit "Murder on the Dancefloor". Ben plays devil's advocate, Dietrich has actually read something and Alex's fears are calmed.

DALTON HAS ARRIVED

A new James Bond actor is here in the shape of Timothy Dalton, therefore it's only appropriate we pick apart the music from The Living Daylights and Licence to Kill. Once that's done, we decide which 1980s song is the BEST and WORST. Ben has been counting kills, Dietrich ponders the mediocre versus the unremarkable and Alex accidentally pitches a great name for a new Bond movie.

DANCE INTO THE FIRE

007 is back and that means it's time cast our eyes over the James Bond songs of the 1980s. In this episode, we break down For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy and A View to a Kill. Alex questions Beanie Feldstein's attempt at a Brummie accent, Ben wants two thirds of a Fab ice lolly and Dietrich reckons we have a song perfectly fit for an "old person boogie". 

(Come back next week for Part 2 where we look at the remaining Bond songs from the 1980s and decide which is best and worst.)

NIGHTMARE FUEL

We are truly sorry about any repressed childhood trauma we uncover on this episode. Time for a trip to a nice, pleasant English meadow as we break down Watership Down, the animated movie which is probably not for kids. But there is light in the darkness with Art Garfunkel's "Bright Eyes". Ben is getting sunburned in the shade, Dietrich has a soapy theory on the number of complaints the movie received and Alex has an undeniable fact about Katie Melua.

AND I SAID WHAT ABOUT...

Next on the agenda is a bonafide Hollywood classic, however some aspects of the movie have not aged well, to put it politely. Get ready for a very expensive morning meal as we discuss "Moon River" from Breakfast At Tiffany's. Alex discusses his parents bedroom, Ben introduces a new segment and Dietrich accidentally prompts a Bruce Forsyth discussion.

DOUBLE 0 70s

And so we come to the end of another decade as we complete our look at the James Bond Songs of the 1970s. This episode, we dissect The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker before deciding which song we think is the best and which is the absolute worst. Ben does a terrible (and potentially libellous) impression of John Barry, Dietrich does a terrible (and potentially libellous) impression of John Barry and Alex, you guessed it, does a terrible (and potentially libellous) impression of John Barry.

BOND IS BACK

We are back with another two part special, this time we moving on a decade to cast our eyes and ears over the James Bond Songs of the 1970s. In this episode, we discuss Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die and The Man With the Golden Gun. Alex is reporting the trends regarding disco record sales for the year ending 1976, Ben is avoiding the pub and Dietrich is contradicting his previous Bond hot takes.

HE'S NOT THE MESSIAH

The movie is considered the standard-bearer of British comedy, with a massively popular tie-in song summing up being British in about 3 and a half minutes. That's right, it's Always Look on the Bright Side of Life from the controversial Monty Python's Life of Brian. Dietrich is struggling to breathe watching Argo, Alex reminisces about his father's VHS tapes and Ben accidentally highlights confusion with the ultimate question of the podcast.
