@@jamesdavison8709 It’s probably because the movie paid him to write it so they probably own the rights to it so he probably can’t perform it whenever he wants.
My dad just introduced me to the movie and now I can’t stop watching the movie. And this song makes me think of when my dad would play it in the summer.
It's 2022, and I'm *still* coming back to listen to this song. Hell, I'm still watching, Summer Rental. Rest in peace, John Candy. We all miss you very much. 🦜Rest in peace, Jimmy Buffett.🦜
Out of all the gone actors John Candy is one of the very, very few that still gets so much love from all over the world. The man died decades ago and I still see people bring up how they miss him. That's a testament to how much of a one of a kind man he was. RIP, big man with an even bigger heart
I love John Candy! When he died in 1994, my girlfriend at the time made me sit down and broke the news to me just like a relative had died. I moped around for a week and felt even more sad once the tributes came out where his friends and co-workers discussed what a wonderful and generous human being he really was.
All John Candy did was make people laugh and feel a little better, just like this song and this movie. Yes I too would say RIP John, you made us a little happier.
+James Johnson Ditto brother, he was one of a kind. In a business full of phonies, he was the "real deal". Summer Rental may not have a great flick, but remains one of my personal favs, miss John Candy and the 80s.
+cameraman655 Absolutely correct. My 2 favorite Films of John Candy, Who's Harry Crumb? and The Great Outdoors. I still laugh at some of the gags in these films. Of course Summer Rental is right up there. Yes, miss Candy and the 80's. It seems like they made a lot of films in the 80's that could get a smile out and make you feel better when it was over. OH well. It is what it is, but the 80's ruled.
He was truly a gift to Hollywood. My two favorite movies by him were Uncle Buck, and Plains Trains and Automobiles. Uncle Buck was a role he was perfect in. I can't see any other actor who could play it like him. In Plains, Trains, and Automobiles he showed how amazingly funny he was and Also at the same time, how he could really pull at your emotions. I don't think I've seen an actor who had such a wide spectrum of talent like he did. I don't think there will be one quite like him ever again. That's how good he was
@@herbsuperb6034 Just visited my parents in Myrtle Beach and saw this on yesterday. Had to watch it. Crenna was awesome. I forgot how many funny moments were in that movie. I love when his wife tries to calm him down in the restaurant and he cuts her off with a "tatatata".
It's not on itunes and it never made it to a greatest hits collection. Now that Jimmy Buffett has gone to the Great Reef in the Sky, it may surface eventually. @@josephgarcia6102
+dason7788 I Was watching it also , just ended. I always watch John Candy movies whenever they show them. Planes Trains is on now ^^ Didnt know Buffet sang this, cool.
R.i.p irene cara the 80's movies, tvshow's and 70's had true heart &soul to it and it made you really look deep inside yourself and give it all you had everything or nothing !!!!!
Those were the days I sit hear and watch these movies with my kids they have no interest just mind blowing they will never understand what we had back in those great times
Just watched Summer Rental for like the 1,000th time and I had to find this song online. Love Jimmy Buffet!! This song will forever remind me of John Candy in the movie with his family helping to fix up the Barnacle so that he can win his "one". Great underdog movie where you just can't wait to see John Candy stick it to that stuck up snob. :)
John Candy is one of my all time favorite actors in this whole world! He is also one of my favorite human beings and I love him always as I collect all of his movies. I also grew up watching him. Awww the memories! Such a treasure!
⛱️ This song just screams 80s Summertime! Summer Rental will always be in my top 3 summer vacation movies of all time. Watch it at least 3 times a year especially when we're about to go on vacation. . .why I'm here! On our way to Florida & The Bahamas and maybe grab Scully's catch of the day!! 🙏🏿 RIP to all the legendary cast that's passed.
This movie was under the radar for so long (most of my friends never heard of it). It's a hidden treasure, everytime I find it on tv I watch it. It's so funny yet kinda innocent. Great movie and song.
Jimmy Buffett has a lot of great songs!! Check out ALL of his 'Greatest Hits (Songs You Know By Heart)' album and then also the sleeper jams "Coconut Telegraph" and "On A Slow Boat To China". There's nothing like Jimmy Buffett and The Coral Reefers/Reefer Band!!
Aaaahhhh,but there's no feeling like it in the world when you do though!!!! Been here done all that.And to all whomever read this.Stay in prayer because Jesus listens and keep pressing forward.Let's make amends like all good men should!😎🤙🏾😎🤙🏾
I vacationed to south florida every year as a kid, and now I take vacations to Florida with my family. I always watch this movie before I leave! I'm a big fan of John Candy; what a great and funny guy!
Sometimes I feel like a propeller Spin spin out of control I don't know who's up on the throttle Oh I wish they'd let it go. All I ever do is get dizzy Thinkin' thinkin' things left undone Been stuck here so long now I'm zero I'd just like to make it to one Chorus: Turnin' around Heros and clown(s) Holdin' my ground Oh I've been down I'm turnin around Turnin' around Lost 'til were found Holdin' our ground Oh I've been down I'm turnin' around Sometimes I get lost in daydreamin' Sleep sleep my life away I know in my heart I'm a sailor And my ship is on the way There never is an end to believers Lookin' lookin' for the right sign If everything will just keep on turnin' All that I want will be mine. Chorus: Turning around Heros and clown(s) Holdin' my ground Oh I've been down I'm turnin' around Turnin' around Lost 'til we're found Holdin' our ground Oh I've been down I'm turnin'around Bridge: (nice steel drum lick) Chorus: Turnin' around Heros and clowns Holdin' my ground Oh I've been down I'm turnin' around Turnin' around Lost 'til we're found (fade
The soundtrack to Summer Rental was never released on an album. I had bought the VHS tape though and I had my audio from the VCR patched into the Aux on my stereo. I snatched my own copy from the closing credits of the movie onto a cassette tape. I have always loved this song!
You can now get the soundtrack on CD (without the Buffett song unfortunately) on Quartet Records QR151. It's an Alan Silvestri score album which also features the music from the comedy film Critical Condition. It's basically a double-album on one CD. The CD is limited to 1000 copies made. UPC 8436035005765. It's the ENTIRE score, including the End Credits by Silvestri, which were cut and replaced by the Buffett song Turning Around. If you want to go a step further to get a high quality version of Turning Around to go with the score, which will require a bit of technical skills, do the following: Download the 720p version of Summer Rental using the torrent on Pirate Bay, and then do an audio bypass on your computer to record the song during the end credits. You'll then have a near CD quality version of the song.
@@crocodile1313 Congrats! I know how you must feel. I'm a 40 years+ Kings fan that finally tasted victory in 2012. Do you have any money left from all the Stanley Cup merchandise you probably purchased?
“Sometimes I get lost in daydreamin' Sleep sleep my life away I know in my heart I'm a sailor And my ship is on the way” Yep, this is definitely my hymn
Just watched summer rental for the first time in 27 years since I was a relatively young boy. I’m a middled aged man now. The whole experience has made me both happy and sad.
Hey D. Did u know jimmy recorded other songs specifically for movies that he doesnt normally sing at concerts. Very rare unless youre a parrothead. Look up "Dont Bug Me" from the film Arachnophobia.
