I will pay you to tell me the song!


I am looking for the name/band that plays the song in the trailer beginning at 1:16 in the trailer. The lyrics are "I'm bigger than life, I'm in your face, you run but there ain't no higher place. I'm a real bad mutha, there ain't no other, now watch me, watch me now."

I have been trying to find this song for several years. It is the only song I have never been able to find. Help me and I will pay you $20, however you want.

The song is called "Wanderer" by the band, "Seamless"

it is definitely not the wanderer by seemless, it sounds nothing like the song he's talking about and has none of the lyrics he mentioned

The Song is "Use Me" by Bill Withers

reply

I am pretty sure it is by Jeff Gross and i think it is called You Do

I am trying to confirm that, but I can't seem to find the song anywhere. How did you find that out?

I'm not positive but this might be a portion of the song that has the "Don't say nothin'" hook. If that's the case, it's not a real song per se. Listen to the audio commentary for Poolhall Junkies and Mars Callahan says that he was having problems getting music licensed for the movie so he recorded some makeshift rap-like song and threw in some samples (I would imagine that's the "Don't say nothin'" part). He didn't think it was any good and didn't ever want to admit it was him rapping but admitted it anyway. If you listen to that portion of the trailer I think a case culd be made that it sounds like hm a bit. I don't own the soundtrack, but I don't think that song is on there, and I haven't found it anywhere else (online, youtube, p2p software, iTunes).

If it's the song I'm thinking of, it's James Brown-Payback
Lemme know if that's right :)
