Absolutely, they are fucking brilliant - Phantom and Bugsy Malone too!

One of the best rock movies ever made! The soundtrack alone is brilliant! Very, very under-rated unfortunately!

Just watched the entire movie for the first time yesterday, and I gotta say, the music in it is one of the best things about it. So happy that Paul Williams is getting more recognition for this thanks to the cult following the film gained over the years.

[@Jillbles]

Amazing to me how popular this movie seems to have gotten. I caught it 20 years ago on cable in the middle of the night & taped as much of it as I could, just so I could prove I hadn't hallucinated it. I'd never heard of it, even though I'm a fan of offbeat musicals. For the longest time, no one I talked to had heard of it.

[@mannysavage88]

[@kraven2774]

I was not myself last night couldn't set things right with apologies or flowers Out of place as a cryin' clown who could only frown and the play went on for hours And as I lived my role I swore I'd sell my soul for one love Who would stand by me and give me back the gift of laughter One love who would stand by me and after making love we'd... Dream a bit of style We'd dream a bunch of friends Dream each others smile And dream it never ends I was not myself last night in the morning light I could see the change was showing Like a child who was always poor reaching out for more I could feel the hunger growing And as I lost control I swore I'd sell my soul for one love Who would sing my song and fill this emptiness inside me One love who would sing my song and lay beside me while we'd.... Dream a bit of style We'd dream a bunch of friends Dream each others smile And dream it never ends All my dreams are lost and I can't sleep And sleep alone could ease my mind All my tears have dried and I can't weep Old emotions may they rest in peace and dream, dream a bunch of friends Rest in peace, and dream, dream it never ends

One of the best movies ever!!! Awesome soundtrack

[@Cheeseaddicteddaleks]

This soundtrack should be listed as an addictive substance. I discovered this track last night and try as I might, I've played it every hour. Memorized this whole dang song and the whole day long, I've been underneath its power. I need to see this film!!!

[@alexisantoniooliva3170]

[@whitewitchoz]

This song completely describes my feelings...."one love to lay beside me while we dream."

[@deborahwood9304]

I agree with Trev Mac - absolutely BRILLIANT - so hard to believe it had such little recognition over the years - probably more now than then since it's become a cult classic.

[@SirChubbyBunny]

+deborah wood I agree. I only found the movie maybe six years ago and it's now one of my favorite movies (and soundtracks) of all time. I can't see how this wasn't popular when it came out, because it's just fantastic (which is an understatement).

[@ivorypenelope8444]

I saw this movie the first time when I was ten, about four months after its initial release. Popularity wasn't the issue. Winslow's disfigurement scene was really intense for that time period. I remember when I saw it the second time. Several of us had seen it at least once and had come back to see it again. But when the disfigurement scene came, about thirty of us went to the lobby to wait for it to end. This probably played a part in what happened next. it became a cult classic that kept playing at midnight for years before it hit cable. I saw the movie at least 100 times before 1980. I still remember the time they showed it on MTV during Halloween '82. I also remember the first time I saw it on public TV in BW. Even then the movie was cool, and the truest film ever made about the Entertainment Industry ever. In the seventies, being a cult movie was the ultimate popularity. And this movie ranks right up there with John Waters and Rocky Horror. now a new generation can discover it here.

[@demonicsweaters]

This movie in general is an amazing piece of art that is strangely not well known. The performance, visuals, and music is really one of the coolest and most interesting things ever made in my opinion. I first saw it randomly in the 90s on TV late one night, then became obsessed with it, and turn all friends on to it. All of us were just blown away by how weird, scary, funny, sad, and just bizarre this movie was.

[@mydearvalerie]

[@Waliul_The_Wall-E]

man, it hits!

[@SmashedTomatoes]

Other movies would have made this version of the song, the supposedly stolen one, a terribly, badly mixed mess to highlight that stealing is bad, but here they gave it straight, and I appreciate that. Sure, this version is more "commercial", but I'd wager it's better than Winslow's version, because want it or not, stolen music isn't synonymous with bad and desperate music.

[@fxgwriter]

This movie deserves a remake with the right cast of today, and this generation could enjoy it their way, with familiar cast to them, I am sure it would also bring back interest for the first film and get Paul Williams the recognition he deserves. Spread the idea!!!
