2. Wow, I did a poll like this once
Only I asked what movies everybody liked which movie the LOOK OF LOVE was in?

You must really love that song.

6. iTunes has a bunch of versions
They're missing the Hoffs vers.

That one, I can get from the Austin Powers soundtrack

18. Nina Simone
It's on one of her RCA releases, and on "Sugar In My Bowl", a two-disc RCA release of some of her best.

22. That's what I was thinking.
I wasn't sure if it was the same song or not, but the ABC song is all that comes to mind right now.
