Looking for lyrics and soundtrack songs, also offering observations.


Is there anyone who has the following song tracks from this movie that I am missing? Here they are as listed in the soundtrack section of this IMDB page:

Please send the audio files to my e-mail address of [email protected] if you have any of them. Now to the quest for lyrics. Does anyone have the official lyrics of "Overrated," "It's The Sound," "Section 12: Hold Me Now," "L-L-Love," "The End Of Everything Known," "Loosen Your Hold," and "One Of These Days"? Feel free to send me your findings. The beginning of "Loosen Your Hold" sounds to me like "Feed me something, go back to the start, to a quieter place, understand our reasons. A photograph taken at the time will comfort us, we'll up and leave (?)" Lyrics in the chorus part are a bit unintelligible to me: "So loosen your hold, though you might be frightened, ?...if this be the right thing, enabled by force to look what the tide brings in."

Whom I think would have made a good distributor for the movie to theaters all over the country would have been the studio that Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, who released the DVD in December 2006, is connected to; Columbia Pictures. If it were possible to share video files here, I would share my reconstruction of what the opening would have looked like with their "Miss Liberty" logo that holds her torch aloft. What the logo looked like during the 1980s, I think would have gone nicely with the opening notes of "Overrated," then showing the logos for Millennium Films and Equity Pictures, slightly sped up to match the timing of the spot where the first lyric comes in of, "Go on, let it out, stuff you should have said before." At that same time, we would see the graphic that reads "Columbia Pictures and Millennium Films present," followed by "A Robert Lawrence Production," then "for Equity Pictures Medienfonds GmbH & Co. KG II."

Maybe a subsequent television series of the same name with further misadventures of Donald and Isabelle Sorenson-Morton would have raised the profile of the condition I share in common with them; Asperger's Syndrome, and maybe not. I am still drawn into this movie each time, like another IMDB user had written in their review.

I've since gotten four of the songs of the soundtrack list; "Evergreen," "Technotic," "Clear," and "Symphony No. 40 In G Minor (Motto Allegro)." All I am missing now are "Ferris Wheel," "High Ball Sonata," and "Cocktail Lullaby," as well as the acoustic version of "Overwhelmed." There was a section of the electric version I don't hear in the recording of that, only in the movie, where Isabelle was storming home from the dinner date.
