  • LOL!! Thought they said at 1:11, "If your not seen green, -you better be 'ready to Change-" as in u better change into something green.

  • @dangerironjunkie they used it in Tekken and Tekken 2 on tekken its antartica on tekken 2 its Anna Williams theme

  • Don't know what made me buy this DVD the other day. Hadn't seen it in years. But what a blast I had reminiscing. I bet I watched it a couple dozen times. I forgot what a classic this was. And the soundtrack IS ALL THAT!

  • I love the Red part. The music is so cool.

  • this is my jam!!

  • Complete Total Masterpiece

  • Golden gold!!

  • Comment removed

  • The dancers (600 +) change costumes in this sequence. There were about 1,200 costumes for this part of the film.

  • ok i see

  • Quincy and the late great Charlie Smalls. This is the jam!!  One of my favorite movies of all time! RIP Mike!!

  • I just found out that Namco Bandai games used this theme for the Tekken 1 and 2 games.

  • It's actually not 100% identical. Namco made slight improvements...it goes lower and this melody here doesn't shift or change much. namco diversified it more.

  • Absolutely genius even michael jackson diana ross and richard pryor were born to make this film a masterpiece

  • Oh my goodness... I see... Shhh, Don't say nothin'. O.O Naw, I'm sure that they got permission if they used it. This is pretty good though. I wish there was an instrumental version.

  • This is my favorite song from the movie!

  • this song is apparently in Tekken lmao

  • Tekken 1 Music - King George Island, Antarctica

  • i can hear the similarities

  • OMG.  Thank You!! What a simply classic tune for a 'je ne sais quoi' era/movie!! You're tha man!! :)

  • What can I say. You got to be seen green.

  • You Can find it on Limewire. search for it by title.

  • loooove this movie :)

  • I love this film !!!!!

  • what a memorable sequence

  • i love the green part the people were so laid back :)

  • This is my favorite scene in the movie and I like the music in the "I want to be seen in red" best! : )

  • who wrote the lyrics?

    was it quincy jones?

  • He played the piano during the "Gold" sequence.

  • if im not mistaken, he was the arranger and composer for the entire movie's musical score. he also appears during the "gold" part of the emerald city sequence playing the piano.

  • who exactly is "he"???

  • Quincy Jones!?

  • o lol aduhh

    i was thinkin that

  • @MercuryX NO sir!!!!all this greatness comes frm

    mr.smalls!!!!NO one out there thats ever lived can do

    music like this!!!Hands down!!!LISTEN TO THE PART

    AFTER SHE SINGS BE A LION!!AND THEN IT SHOWS THE NEW YORK BRIDGE AND THE MUSIC THAT MR.SMALLS PLAYED DURIN THE TIME THEY WERE SHOWIN THE BRIDGE,IS THE BEST MUSIC IVE EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE!!!

  • @Dragonking3787 While it's true that Charlie Smalls wrote the score for the movie, he didn't write every song. That particular music (during the bridge scene), an instrumental version of "Is This What Feeling Gets? (Dorothy's Theme)", was actually composed by Quincy Jones.

  • The lyrics were written by Charlie Smalls. Quincy Jones wrote the music for The Emerald City Sequence.

    Charlie Smalls wrote the majority of the music and the lyrics for the B'Way production of The Wiz.
