Post by: prophet on January 20, 2004, 06:15:59 PM
but if I do I will have "Electric Light Orchestra - Sweet Talkin' Woman" for the credits just  like how PTA had "Electric Light Orchestra - Livin' Thing" for his.

ELO totally rules, and spurs vivid images in my head.  I would totally use something by ELO in a film.

ELO's music has been really put into a lot of movies. My favorite is obviously the way that PTA uses it in Boogie Nights but I also like how they used Mr. Blue Sky on the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind trailer.

Quote from: prophetElectric Light Orchestra - Fifth of Beethoven this is the most populat, Sat Night Fever.

I have no idea what you're saying, but "Fifth of Beethoven" was done by Walter Murphy for "Saturday Night Fever". You might be thinking of ELO's remake of "Roll Over Beethoven" (originally done by Chuck Berry).

What does this topic have to do with PTA?

My mom also thought Fifth of Beethoven was by ELO. Long story short I set her straight!
