One quick note: This song was used for a hot minute in James Franco's most recent film, 127 Hours. My jury is still out on how much I liked the movie (will need to see it again at some point), but I can say that this song was used for one particular montage and it was incredible! On either the 2nd or 3rd day of Ralston's dilemma (climber who's arm was caught in boulder), he wakes up realizing he has to start thinking pro-actively about getting himself out of this situation. In doing so he says, 'Alright - Let's do this' - - - Bill Withers' "Lovely Day" comes on and Boom - its a really wonderful moment where music and film make love. The montage ends with Ralston thinking only about water. Soon enough he is imagining babes on the beach, gushing waterfalls and Soda, all while "Lovely Day" is rocking the theatre. I can't recommend the movie - but if you do go see it - look for that scene!
