You Keep Coming Back Like A Song

Assuming my answer was right, here's an easy one:

It was always "Sit down Shirley Valentine, go away Shirley Valentine". And one day Shirley Valentine just wasn't there anymore......

[Terence Lee]

Here's a clue. Patti Austin sang the song.

[diane]

'The Girl Who Used To Be Me'....the title track of the film, Shirley Valentine.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Terence, If It's from the film, is it The Girl Who Used To Be Me

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Hi Diane you got there first so it's your turn for a verse.

[diane]

Hi, does it have to be from a film?


I'll go with this one which is from a film.....

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo,

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better,

Hi Diane--good to see you joining in the fun and games section.

Firstly, no the song does not have to be from a film.

And secondly I do not think I know your verse--well, I have a few ideas of what it may be,, but I've got to check them out. And I may be wrong!!

I often am wrong!!

Hi Diane

Is it LOSE YOURSELF by EMINEM?

If so, it won the Oscar for Best Song.

It's from the movie 8 Mile, right Diane?

[diane]

Hi Terry,

yes it is 'Lose Yourself' from the film '8 Mile'

The lyrics to "Lose Yourself" were written by Eminem during a break from filming in a portable studio on the set, doing all three verses in one take. The sheet he used to write it on appears in "8 Mile" in a scene where his character is writing while riding the bus. This sheet was sold on eBay for $10,000.



"Lose Yourself" won the 2004 Grammy Awards for Best Male Rap Solo Performance and for Best Rap Song. The song was also nominated for Record Of The Year, for Song Of The Year and for Best Song Written For A Motion Picture, Television Or Other Visual Media.


How about that then Paul

[Terence Lee]

I'm a glum one, it's explainable
I met someone unattainable
Life's a bore, the world is my oyster no more
All the papers where I led the news with my capers now will spread the news
"Superman turns out to be flash in the pan!"

[diane]

I Can't Get Started sung by Frank Sinatra and was originally made famous by Bob Hope.


From the film Zeigfield Follies.

[Terence Lee]

Well done Diane!

Your turn.......
