So we're looking for song titles in the movie? Because I'm confused. The original link is straightforward, but I was having difficulty sorting through the scenes in the movie and wasn't quite sure what I was looking for... posted by TeamBilly at 1:47 PM on March 14, 2006
Purple Rain; Magic Carpet Ride; Another Brick in the Wall; Dancing Queen; Like A Rolling Stone; Hotel California; Piano Man; Blue Suede Shoes; Video Killed the Radio Star (heh). That's all I got so far. posted by Gator at 2:03 PM on March 14, 2006
I Shot The Sheriff; Tears in Heaven(?); Message in a Bottle.
What about those soliders? I bet I'm gonna feel really stupid when I hear what that is... posted by Gator at 2:07 PM on March 14, 2006
I'm finding all the same ones as Gator (on TWO previews), plus "We are the champions"

Gator, if you don't wanna know, don't click or hover over the link that is the full stop at the end of this sentence. posted by goodnewsfortheinsane at 2:19 PM on March 14, 2006
The soldiers are a "Seven Nation Army"! posted by easternblot at 2:21 PM on March 14, 2006
I have never, ever heard of that song, so I don't feel bad (though I suspect jonmc will want to thrash me now).
Any chance that blinged-out character on the dock also represents It's Hard Out Here For a Pimp? posted by Gator at 2:31 PM on March 14, 2006
Televison killed the radio star towards the end.
Kinda like Catchphrase! say what you see! its good but its not right posted by lemonfridge at 2:40 PM on March 14, 2006
No one said "Eye In The Sky", Alan Parsons. posted by docpops at 2:55 PM on March 14, 2006
What about the coloured parachutes at the end? posted by lemonfridge at 2:56 PM on March 14, 2006

Kingfisher? Gotta be the first song in the clip... posted by NailsTheCat at 3:00 PM on March 14, 2006
whats the actual music playing over the video? posted by lemonfridge at 3:01 PM on March 14, 2006
Oh. And I had to look it up but "5.15" by The Who (on Big Ben's clock face). And it seems Bowie has a song called "5.15 The Angels Have Gone" and Knopfler has a "5.15am". So there you go. posted by NailsTheCat at 3:07 PM on March 14, 2006
that was my question, lemonfridge. posted by whatzit at 3:07 PM on March 14, 2006

Anyone got anything better than "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes" for when the screen fills with smoke? posted by The Bellman at 3:13 PM on March 14, 2006

I'm not entirely convinced myself, but one of the burglars does this weird shimmy on the dancefloor (before he goes off-screen) that makes me think he could be a "smooth criminal"...? posted by easternblot at 4:10 PM on March 14, 2006
...oooh! Good one! posted by dabitch at 4:15 PM on March 14, 2006
Also: "Rose Garden" (brick in wall scene), "Lily" (final scene). There might also be an "Iris" in there somewhere.

"Paint It Black"... the very last thing. posted by kimdog at 4:20 PM on March 14, 2006
