This is an interpretation of the song " It Couldn't
Be Anne" by Circus Monkey and it is a creation of my own work.
Although Circus Monkey is actually a fictitious band, this is
an incredible song. The fictional band is the brainchild of
songwriter Greg Kendall who writes four songs for the band,
a fabulous song for another band named Tacklebox, and two
other good sounding scores. All these are included on the
soundtrack and in the movie "Bandwagon". Bandwagon is my
favorite movie and as i said has great music but it is
virtually unheard of. It was a Sundance Film Festival
presentation and has never gotten much attention. My
favorite band is the "Connells" who are also extremely
underrated and through loving their music is how i stumbled
upon Bandwagon. Ex-drummer John Schultz became a Hollywood
director and thus asked longtime Connells lead singer Doug
Macmillan to star in the film. Because of its independent
style release... this movie and soundtrack are hard to find
and expensive as well. I regret that not many people will
hear this wonderful music or see a darn good and funny movie.
*** the mainstream!!! If you like music you will love this
movie especially if you play an instrument yourself. If you
have any questions or would like this song emailed to you
... email me.
Finally a movie about a band!
