Evil Songs-Ain't That A Kick In The Head

I apologise in advance to Raquelle!



Gah! This song won't leave me alone! It's always there, somewhere in the back of my mind, ready to attack when least expected. And you can bet your bottom dollar it will.
I love this part of Ocean's 11. It's actually pretty random-they're all just planning and scheming and the next minute-'Oh, look! Dino's singing!' I adore that about classic movies. The stars got using ALL their talents in a movie, even if it wasn't relevant to the story. Example A of this is just above.

And did I mention Dean looks unbelievably cool here? Just thought I should say that.

PS-Sorry the video is huge. I'm not good with this sort of thing.

I forgive you. I think I might post about this song and Eee-O 11 too. Just trying to find some time. Will let you know if I do.

Love/hate this song. He sings it THREE TIMES in the movie.

I'm very thankful for your forgiveness. ;-P

I WANT TO READ THESE POSTS!

Three times? Woah, where was I when he sang it the other two times? Hahaha! I can't think...when is that? :-P

This is an evil song! It bores into your brain and won't leave! Fortunately, it's also an enjoyable song. As far as I am concerned, Dino was the coolest member of the Rat Pack.

Wow, I remember Dino singin' a lot but it's been years since I saw Ocean's Eleven! And I knew NOTHING of vintage music then, so I didn't even remember this song. Fortunately it's on a Dean Martin album I listen to a lot and I love it. But it's the last track so I don't get it stuck in my head very often.

At least it's not like Robert Conrad singing, Love you baby, but I don't know why (bud-a-bum-bum)...

You have heard that one, right Niamhy?

@Mercurie Heck yeah! Dino is THE coolest!

@Emm You must watch it again! YOU MUST!

Those lyrics sound familiar...I'll check YouTube. :-P
