    Rock Around the Clock -- Bill Haley

    The first movie it was in, please.

    Edit: In retrospect, I'll open it up to any of the three movies this song was in. All three were Oscar nominated movies, two were about teenagers, and the third was just super.

    Splunge has it.

    The other movies were: Blackboard Jungle (1955), and Superman (1978) -- both with Glenn Ford (the song was chosen to be played on the car radio in Superman because of the Glenn Ford tie). It was also used in "Rock Around the Clock" a B-movie from 1956 (I didn't know about that one until a few minutes ago).

    "Rock Around the Clock" is considered by many to be the most influential rock song in history. It basically started the rock movement among white performers.

    Yep. I have to admit - I like both the movie and the song.

    You been dipping into the turnip beer again, Tak?

    I should know this one since I used it as a lark in the Song Quote Game, but I'm drawing a blank on the movie.

    Well, the egotistical ‘me’ wants to say you got it from, well, me (from the afore-mentioned Song Quote Game), but the “me who knows better” suspects otherwise.

    In any event, I still have no idea.

    Alright, fine... new movie, new song:

    This one has been in a boatload of movies (including an instrumental version in 'Strangers on a Train' and in another movie by Ol' Blue Eyes), but not with these specific artists -- they are unique to one movie:

    The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down -- performed by Charles Fleischer and later in the movie by Bob Hoskins

    ... Fleischer did the voice of a character in the movie (Takara... now you say the name of the movie... hint, hint).

    Who Framed Roger Rabbit? I just put the name of the song in iTunes to hear a clip as the name meant nothing. But when I heard a bit, Daffy Duck and the warner sign immediately sprung to mind.

    From me... get ready for this by 2 Unlimited

    My wife has this on her "sport's CD." I just noticed it and played it. I never would have known it from the title.

    Space Jam?

    No. And to move to this song you need "spirit fingers". I just checked wikipedia and it was used in Space Jam, but clearly not the movie I posted this for.

    Since you are right, in that this song is in Space Jam, you can go.
