SOUNDTRACK REVIEW:
While I’m not always tickled by Will Ferrell’s
antics, I take my hat off the actor who has the courage to
sport such a hairdo for a movie. I mean, Mr. Ferrell, you
aren’t exactly the best looking actor around (I try
my best to be humble here), and with big hair like that, you
definitely have earned my respect. And it definitely helps
that you rock the balls off every listener with your “Love
Me Sexy” on this funk-filled soundtrack.
The
opening track of this 57-minute album is Jackie Moon’s
(Ferrell) chart-topping song. In the movie, the one-hit wonder
wishes to use the profits from this song to fulfill the dream
of owning a basketball team. With rollicking lyrics like “Love
Me Sexy”, “Lick Me Sexy”, “Suck Me
Sexy” and “Humping Sexy”, it’s difficult
not to love this hilariously comical song. And before you
report this website to the authorities for posting lewd content
online, that’s what the 1970s is all about, baby.
The
rest of the songs contained on this compilation will bring
back merry memories of those golden years when hair was big,
shorts were short and people were generally happier.
The
familiar “Lady Marmalade” by American R&B
and soul group Labelle, “Why Can’t We Be Friends”
by WAR & Dreams and Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be,
Will Be) by Sly & The Family Stone will ring a bell to
younger listeners because of the many cover versions performed
by contemporary artistes. Meanwhile, old time favourites like
funk saxophonist Ronnie Laws’ “Tell Me Something
Good”, soul music group Chairmen of the Board’s
“Give Me Just A Little More Time” and American
funk singer Curtis Mayfield’s “Move on Up”
are signature big band tunes which marked music from the 1970s.
For all things fun, huge and merry, get this soundtrack album
– Jackie Moon is waiting to “Love You Sexy”.
