Matthew McConaughey - Ladies Of Tampa HD
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44-EhGCZoNM

Why? Silly, but I'm not sure if it'd work as a high-tempo walk-on.

-or-
Thompson Twins - We Are Detective
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReacTOXGgHE

Why? His show with Woody is called "True Detective." (David Wooderson and Woody Harrelson? It's like Kennedy/Lincoln.)

Matthew McConaughey:

"Feeling Alright" - Dave Mason
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abe7QopENJM (Dave Mason version)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiTcmahEjiY (Better known Joe Cocker version)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9lyvaykIgk (Crate diggers classic Jackson 5 version)

(in Dazed & Confused, his character famously says "Alright alright alright" a lot, as seen in the beginning of this scene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kd070Hf8XK4 Plus as a legendary stoner, he's feeling alright all the time.)


Gisele Bundchen:
"I Feel Pretty" - From 'West Side Story"

2864233, my picks
Posted by johnbook, Sat Jan-04-14 11:32 PM
Matthew McConaughey
Outkast's "Hey Ya"
REASON: Because of his "alright, alright, alright" quote from DAZED & CONFUSED, but have it vocalized in McConaughey's matter of speak.

ALTERNATE CHOICE:
Paul Stanley's "It's Alright"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OOmlUP7KAo
REASON: Same as above.



Gisele Bundchen
Jadakiss' "She Likes Me"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCsWVbAiXik
REASON: There was an article this week about wearing Uggs in the snow,
complete with Instagram pic:
http://www.refinery29.com/2014/01/60074/gisele-bundchen-snow-storm-instagram

Thus:
"Lights off, lights on, Uggs with the tights on
Even better when she butt naked with my ice on
She know how to rock it but sometimes she hold the mic wrong
She just try to make every situation right for him"

Ryan Seacrest
The Carpenters' "Sing"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LYekeK0HWo
REASON: Written by Joe Raposo (one of the many songwriters who contributed to SESAME STREET's great songs over the years), this is one of the few songs from childhood that can bring a tear to my eye because of its simplicity and what it meant as a kid who tried to figure himself out. Just the line "don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear, just sing... sing a song" will do it for me, and I'm 5 years old all over again. I was going to suggest EW&F's "Sing-A-Song", but people on AI are there to sing, and I feel the theme fits perfectly.


Gabrielle Union
Mary J. Blige's "Mary Jane"

Posted by johnbook, Sat Jan-04-14 11:57 PM
William H Macy
Betty Wright's "No Pain, No Gain"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NprgWAZQo-Q
REASON: Macy stars in SHAMELESS, so change the lyric to "no shame". Also, in honor of the old THE RHYTHM & THE BLUES compilation commercial that aired on BET for years.
http://youtu.be/Ai9y6ovHOJM?t=29s


Bethenny Frankel
Hilly Michaels' "Calling All Girls"
http://youtu.be/hcadh96eLe8?t=2m11s
REASON: A stable of early MTV, the theme song to her talk show is "Calling On All Girls" so I decided to offer this variant as a suggestion:



Talk Talk's "Talk Talk"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eqjttpl3peI
REASON: She is a talk show host (among many things). I've suggested this for others, I'll try again for Frankel.

F Troop Theme Song by William Lava, Irving Taylor, Frank Comstock

Go about 50 seconds in for the part where they say (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVwFADi4Y38#t=48s) Maybe start with the recognizable theme, and add an F Troop somewhere in the middle.


Why? The classical walk on might be too slow, and F Troop sounds like the name of F Murray Abraham's fan club.

REASON: From the great movie JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR. Abraham plays the character of Bud Grossman in INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS, so change the lyric from "what's the buzz, tell me what's a happenin'" to "what's that, Bud? Tell me what's a happenin'".

2864282, F Murry Abraham - The Death of Queen Jane - Oscar Isaac
Posted by gusto, Sun Jan-05-14 10:03 PM
http://www.last.fm/music/Oscar+Isaac/_/The+Death+Of+Queen+Jane

Oscar sings this song to impress club owner (F Murray Abraham) in the movie What's Inside Llewyn Davis. And he is very impressed (in real life)

N: You play a very pivotal role in the film, being the man Llewyn needs to impress to get his career going, but in the movie while he’s playing you have to remain as motionless and tell-free as possible. How was that for you to do? He’s obviously doing a great job of playing and yet you have to show no emotion at all.

FMA: Yeah, it was tough because it’s a very touching song. The first time he played it, I almost started to weep, which is not the right thing. He delivered every time, one take each time that long, moving end-shot. It was wonderful to see. I think he did it four times. It tore his heart out every time. I don’t know if you know that he played it live. He was playing and singing. It’s not prerecorded at all.

N: That’s amazing.

FMA: Isn’t it?

Three Dog Night's "Eli's Coming"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1A2eet1bttY
REASON: Rannells plays Elijah in GIRLS, which will make its season premiere on the 12th, and he is sure to talk about that there.
"Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl
Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's a-comin', you better hide
Girl, Eli's comin', hide your heart, girl (hide it)
You better, better hide your heart
Eli's comin', better walk"

Also, in honor of their drummer Floyd Sneed, creator of the "I Can Hear You Calling" break.
