they don't sing this song, but i'm reminded of it anyway.



I've always loved the camerawork Scorcese used on introducing The Staple Singers and Mavis in particular. She was so adorable and charming back then.


Retha's version is better. Of course.

Is there a website/app that will tell me where I know a piece of classical music from? I was at the symphony last night because I'm a fancy man, and I knew 2 of the 5 pieces very well. They weren't in Fantasia, and they weren't on Little Einsteins. There's a million dollar idea, and I'll let you have it for 10%.

Dvořák – Slavonic Rhapsody No. 3

Brahms – Symphony No. 3

There's always a possibility I played them in HS or heard them in a commercial or Bugs Bunny cartoon.

I don't know, but when you find out you should add a "usage in pop culture" to the wikipedia page for the respective pieces

not quite a million bucks though

I don't know about the Dvorak, but the Brahms is used all the time, particularly the third movement. After spenidng a couple minutes searching for where, I realized Wikipedia has already done the work for me. Not sure if any these ring a bell for you though.

The school orchestra could also be the thing though too. I encounter a bunch of things that I can't remember why they're familiar and then remember, oh right, tenth grade.It sounded, um, different though.

There's also the CD set I had to listen to for music appreciate in college. I will have to check that.
