Drumroll please:

Strawberry Letter # 23--The Brothers Johnson

What a great song!

Edited to add lyrics, which are really cool:

Hello, my love
I heard a kiss from you
Red magic satin playing near, too

All through the morning rain
I gaze - the sun doesn't shine -
Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind

In the garden - I see west
Purple shower, bells and tea
Orange birds and river cousins dressed in green

Pretty music I hear - so happy
And loud - blue flower echo
From a cherry cloud

Feel sunshine sparkle pink and blue
Playgrounds will laugh
if you try to ask
Is it cool? Is it cool?

If you arrive and don't see me
I'm going to be with my baby
I am free - flying in her arms, over the sea

Stained window, yellow candy screen
See speakers of kite - with velvet roses diggin' freedom flight

A present from you - Strawberry letter 22
The music plays, I sit in for a few

Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...

A present from you - Strawberry letter 22
The music plays, I sit in for a few

Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...

Thanks, guys, that's quite a good 'crop' there.....

The song is much older than that. Wasn't written for any movie.

JayMcGee · 10-18-2006, 08:48 PM

yeah, sorry MaggieL, didn't read your post properly (force of habit

)...

the song & film I was thinking of was 'Here we go around the Mulberry Bush'
