STILL CRAZY [ALL OVER THE WORLD] This is one of the most uplifting moments of the film
This is a clip from the movie "Still Crazy" (1998, directed by Brian Gibson), where fictional has-been rock-band STRANGE FRUIT perform one of their songs - 'All Over The World'.
WELL, I WASN'T GONNA NOT POST IT AFTER I GOT HERE!
This is one of the most uplifting moments of the film (one of my all-time favorites without a doubt) - after long, extensive and difficult European reunion tour (which was played to largely indifferent audiences in toilet circuit venues) the band finally finds its vibe, listeners and recognition. Great old style rock tune too, isn't it?
