On That Note: Stage & Screen

[cyclones500]

Welcome back to “On That Note,” CF’s weekly music series, hosted by @MeanDean, @CycloneRulzzz and cyclones500.

Two major awards shows are coming the next two weekends (Oscars and Grammys). To connect the dots, we're exploring songs with titles or lyrics that reference performance elements for either of the entertainment forms: Including show, concert, gig and stage/on-stage (for music reference) or movie, film, flick, cinema and theater (in the “movie house” context).

DOES NOT QUALIFY: Group names, album titles or specific references to a movie title by itself. Finally, any word has to be in context of the theme (so, for example: “Show” used as a general verb IS NOT ACCEPTED).

• In case you missed it: Last week’s OTN: Breakfast in America

A couple to get us going.

It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

I saw a movie it just wasn't the same

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

The movie's over, it's four o'clock, and we're in trouble deep

If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert

 

[MeanDean]

"I Hope you will enjoy the show"

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Got me a movie

“Hey, what were you thinking, when they were starting the show?”

 

[MeanDean]

"I wonder if you know, that you're putting on a show."

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

It's like a bad movie



Would she go down on you in a theater

I saw a film today, the English Army had just won the war

 

[BoxsterCy]

See here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage

Sitting in the stands of the sports arena, waiting for the show to begin.

 

[BoxsterCy]

As I fell asleep and dreamed
I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie
This really blew my mind
The fact that me, an overfed long haired leaping gnome
Should be the star behind a Hollywood movie,
