As simple as it sounds, what is the music used at the end of this film when the callers are on reflecting on their Barry experiences. I have heard it before I am sure.

Thanks in advance!

I have just watched this film, after finding out John C. McGinley was in it, from Scrubs fame.

I was amazed and the last bit of music to play blew my mind.

It's "Telephone and Rubber Band" by Penguin Cafe Orchestra

I didn't realise until the opening credits John C was in it but his performance was really good. Everyone's was really, but Eric Bogosion just blew them all away. Where the hell was his Oscar?

It uses a call tone and vaguely resembles the opening of Spacehog's "In the Meantime"--in my opinion.

Could be what you mean, or I'm crazy.

Dig that sound though, gotta see if I can get ahold of it.

You're actually dead on. Spacehog used a sample from 'Telephone and Rubber Band' for 'In the Meantime'.

It was originally in the movie Malcolm (1986)

The end theme is "Telephone and Rubber Band" by the Penguin Cafe Orchestra.
