10 Tracks Guaranteed To Trigger Your Movie Memory

1. Just The Two Of Us- Bill Withers, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me

Mini This scene in Austin Powers is a wildly funny take on the original song Just The Two Of Us, with Dr. Evil confessing his love for his clone Mini - Me. As we know, the song is about the bond between father and son and this version parodied that theme brilliantly. The lyrics are hilarious with Dr. Evil talking about his longing for acceptance from his son Scott, only to be blessed with a clone who completely over shadows Scott and becomes his everything. The movie also featured Dr. Evil covering It's A Hard Knocked Life by Jay Z, but it just does not seem to stand out as much for me as it was not quite as cleverly written as Just The Two Of Us. Every time I hear the original I think of this movie and hysterical scene, the song is now firmly implanted as an Austin Powers classic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SzE08aInn4
