It's a little known fact that one of my songs soundtracks one of the biggest movies of all time. "Accidents Will Happen" is used in ''ET'' and fair enough, you could blink and miss it, but one of the characters sings it for about eight seconds when opening the fridge door. Whenever you give clearance for one of your songs to be used in a film, you are taking a big risk. When we agreed to the use of "Accidents Will Happen" — for what, I might add, was a nominal fee — we didn't know how it was going to be used, it could have been a seal tap dancing across the screen for all we knew. | It's a little known fact that one of my songs soundtracks one of the biggest movies of all time.
