    Always enjoyed it- upbeat song. However, never seen the movie Mannequin.

    I think I love Mannequin, but haven't seen it for decades and will never watch it again because I'm sure it will have aged terribly!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 19,813 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22


    that crash test dummy's song, from about .25 - .32, the 1st line almost; really reminds me of another song which i cannot for the life of me place. any ideas?
