This one moment, just that moment, when they were literally the best band in the world. It was all too brief, ended as soon as they got backstage. But they were the best for a instant.
I love how this performance makes it so clear - this is the best The Commitments ever get - everything comes together for them here and they are at their pinnacle and they realize it.
This film and 'The Sapphires' helps bring the kind of societal, global healing through music that we all could use today.. This film was a diamond in the rough when it first hit the screen.
It always blows my mind when I watch this movie. I mean, Andrew Strong was only SIXTEEN fucking years old when he did this! Dear God, he was only a kid, and he had such a fantastic voice already!!!
If I walked into a bar somewhere, and this group was playing there...I'd be in heaven, dancing and grooving past the midnight hour, till the place closed, and then try to find out where they were playing next, and go there...
my aunt knew a lot of these guys in real life; apparently Andrew Strong was kinda similar to his character :P Still, utterly fantastic voice. And great movie!!!
hey guys what song were they singing when andrew strong's character accidentally shoved the girls to the side? that scene was hilarious and great at the same time!
