Don't know soundtrack song...

I wasn't sure if I should post this here or movie talk.. but I came across a bit of movie score on an old recorded cassette and it's driving me crazy not being able to figure out what it's from! Although to be able to figure it out, it'd have to be heard... so how would I go about plopping an .avi file on here (the quickest/easiest way was to just record on my camera....)? I recorded like 2 1/2 minutes of it, but it goes on for much longer than that. So I guess step 1 would be figuring out how to post the video here.. sorry for my internet non-knowledge!

Ever heard of YouTube? Embedding?

Yeah, put it on YouTube or Vimeo and use the "embed" code on those sites to post it here.

Or, before you do all that, you can try using Shazam to identify it, but my success with that has been hit or miss.

Hum a few bars. It might be obvious to us.

Is it "Anna (Go to Him)"?

Indeed. I knew I'd catch slack, and I thought of that route, I just wasn't sure if there was a more obvious one. I'll put it up when I get home and see if anyone's interested in giving a listen by then.

Re: Don't know soundtrack song... (or how to put a video here)

Okay.. let's try this..

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4c0Ed8RhZYY?hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4c0Ed8RhZYY?hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Like I said, it goes on for quite some time on the tape, but this is only around the first two minutes.

Sure sounds like a movie that Touchstone released sometime during the late 80's/early 90's.

Yeah, something like Oscar, Big Business or Down and Out in Beverly Hills; it also reminds me of a Burt Reynolds early 80's flicks.

Somewhere down the line in the song it's got a bit of a stylized "Here Comes The Bride" as well fit into it.
