there are many times i've thought that the quality of a movie would have been exponentially improved if they had left out the music altogether.
once in a while, i'll see a movie that i think actually has the potential to be really good, but that tacky, tinny, rinky-dink Casio music with its over-literal lyrics ("Jealousy... is not good o! Why do you want to take another man's wife o?")... it just cheapens the whole thing and makes everything a little cheesier.
different strokes, sha...

some of them are quite catchy and the particular song I mentioned I've heard the same artist in other films and they have this melancholy sound that I like... Plus when you got a film with a catchy song it can have you singing that song months later like in Market Sellers,
"Her name is Angelica/ and she's a market seller..."
Holy Man, there was this song that they kept singing the name Amandaneze over and over...
The best music was in Royal Family though, it was a beautiful tune.
