Laughs, ok there were 2 other tracks as well, but how can you beat that final scene of Randall "Tex" Cobb doing some martial arts in the wind, or is tai chi?? Laughs...into the wind to the stylings of ..."we're all brothers in the night, reaching out for somethin' right." I think I feel a tear welling up.

I'd nominate for your series another truly 'lost' song - the Joni Mitchell song deleted after the promo issue of the 'Grace of My Heart' soundtrack. (MCA?) didn't have the licensing! It was replaced by Shawn Colvin covering the same song. Shawn is also in the movie, and of course Allison Anders' quasi-kinda-sorta Carole King biopic practically BEGS an interview... with variations on 'what were you thinking??' Don't get me wrong, I love it, but boy is it weird when considering all the true-life tales of the girl-group/'60s era it stitches together. There's also a great old James Carr song that comes during the big clinch scene in 'Only You' when Andrew McCarthy and Helen Hunt dance and fall in love... I think I might have that Southside Johnny Tuff Turf song on a 45... Of Montreal or Matt Pond PA covered 'Holiday Road' a year or so ago. wow, what a complete & fulfilling exhumation of a ‘lost’ song!
