When I was writing the last article I mentioned how Dave M. and Dave K. were huge fans of Heart and Jethro Tull respectively, and recently The Nostalgia Critic co-reviewed Heavy Metal with Diamanda Hagan. All of this gave me the idea for this month's Song of The Week theme, that being songs I liked that were prominently featured in motion pictures. I will not be touching any songs used in James Bond films as I will be doing a top five James Bond songs around November, when Skyfall debuts.
As to why Heart and/or Jethro Tull helped give me this idea, after I watched the Heavy Metal review I was thinking of what songs might fit into this category and almost immediately this one sprang to mind. Eddie Murphy's The Golden Child was a mediocre movie. However, Heart's Ann Wilson really nails it with her theme to the movie, Best Man In The World.
