Muppet Treasure Island OST,T3 "Something Better"

[SuperMysteriousDude]

best.. song.. EVER...

[marcelle215]

boy i thought he was girl for the longest time when i was little 

[Shalsy10]

God I remember cleaning to this song when I was little lol

[MrSingingpenguin1]

Why did they change the lyrics from the movie to the soundtrack?

[Theatrestudent1119]

I listen to this song before I do stage crew for a production.

[supertwinkie1987]

I love ALL the songs from the Muppets treasure Island, I once did a production of it at a theatre company, SO GREAT, I especially like this one and "Sailing for Adventure" Thanks for posting!

[ScythexMeisterxAlice]

I like to sing this song while I'm cleaning because it makes it fun. BD

[DarkFatalisSlayer]

"Eh what's this, it's a pretty little girl!" "I'm not a girl..." I love this movie.

My sisters used to sing this. One of them was always Ganzo.

[Shippou011]

This is different from the film, but at the same time, I vaguely remember that whole beginning being in it when I was little and watched it. I watch the DVD and the version in it is from 00:50 onwards... It's bothering me that I know that first 50 seconds, but they're not on the dvd...

[MissWisteriaa]

@Shippou011 I just watched my version and it has it. I guess they cut it in the DVD?

[hrauthor87]

@aMgVbros4aetas 10 Billion awesome points for going along with it!!

[NYG4LIFE123]

I see the title "Something Better" and Muppets and I immediately think to Rowlf & Kermit's big song in The Muppet Movie.

[NancyDrewgal111]

Unngh this brings back memories for me too; I used to freaking love this movie. xD I love this song too; the kid who plays Jim has a beautiful voice. <3 I kinda wish there was a version with just him singing, but oh well.

[MegumiGoose]

You know, I think I know why today's stuff just isn't up to snuff. We were having an economic boom, everything was going so well for us all the way around. But then we had this depression... and you can see it in the toys too. I went to the biggest toy store in my city, used to be a kid's wonderland. Everything is now over priced and looked like it came from a garage sale. I go to wally world and even the Barbies are poorly made. People don't put the same kind of effort into things anymore.

[Estelnin]

hmm, this is a different version from the film.

[Shippou011]

@Estelnin See, that's what I thought. The version from the film starts at 00:50 sort of.

[TheChocolatechip95]

this is my fav movie im so happy to be a 90's kid :D

[rbain007]

When I was younger I always wondered why he sounded like a girl!!! Sorry Jim Hawkins!!!

[rcarass1]

"...The Black Spot!!......Aaaaaaarghh!!!"

[ilovelinx]

Goosbumps <3

[Kaagh178]

Jim Hawkins reminds me of a Disney Princess here. They always want something more.

[ChurchsofChrist]

GREAT!!!

[thedreamerswork]

"And I know this life I'm living can't be my destiny..." ;_; that line always makes me tear up lol

[MrBluezz5]

In the film, Jim doesn't sing the first little section. I think he starts singing went it says "i look around here and i want to cry" anyway else agree with me?

[KBAFourthtime]

@MrBluezz5 Yes, I know it. At least Kevin Bishop recorded his singing voice before even being filmed due to voice change while filming.

[lajls916]

AH HA HAHA!

[realar]

I need rum!! Rum til I float!!!!

[hrauthor87]

@realar "DON'T BE GIVING HIM ANYMORE RUM!!"

[KBAFourthtime]

I wake up each day and wonder what for. It seems to me there must be something more Something more than stacks of dishes And washing this old floor. If I had my pick-up wishes I'd wish me out that door... 'Cause I'm hungry for adventure And I'm fed up with this grind. If I don't have some excitement soon I'm gonna lose my mind. I want a life that's filled with thrills That's wild and free. There's gotta be something better, something better There's gotta be something better than this for me.

[KBAFourthtime]

I look around here and I want to cry...

[ashleyhedges92]

so this dude can't sing at all xD but he's cute enough to totally make up for it lol

[Dulcie19]

@ashleyhedges92 Can't sing at all? How can you say that? His voice sounds beautiful! And so clear. Listen to the way he breezes through those high notes. His voice kinda does sound a bit different in this video though. Watch the actual scene and I think you'll see what I mean. Oh and I agree he is very cute ;)

[tlucentefl]

HOW DOES SHE BLOODY DOO THAHT?!

[Wanlingnic]

...The officical theme song of every pokemon trainer before they leave the hometown. xD

[saphireroze001]

i sing this all time at work.

[KBAFourthtime]

"Enough with the singing!"

[SATEBTEHBM]

QUIT SINGIN AND GET BACK TO WORK!

how does she do that?!

[breakable25]

you are the best! thank you thank you thank you ;) I´ve always loved this movie and the music gives me a smile.

[PBSTARR265]

This makes me want to cry...out of sheer remembrance. I miss the 90's with the burning hot intensity of 1000 suns. Thank you kind sir @TheMuppetmike

[TheMuppetmike]

@PBSTARR265 I Know how you feel. everyone will miss those great days back in the 90's.

but they will live forever in our hearts.

Your Very Welcome.

[raterroyale]

XD "Let Danger call my name!" "If it does I'm gonna hide..." "I'll put my courage to the test!" "And I'll be by your side...." "HE'LL be by your side." Lol Rizzo is hilarious.

[Eivyll]

The first part was cut from the movie, wasn't it?

[emrabt]

@Eivyll yes the first verse isn't in the movie, they must have thought it went on too long.

[dropUrPeaches]

Who'm I kidding? I'm STILL head-over-heels for 'Jim'. <3<3<3

[0oJokeo0]

@dropUrPeaches I know right! I had such a crush on him when i was in elementry school 030

[rbain007]

@dropUrPeaches nah, I always had a crush on Tim Curry as Long John!!!!! I have a soft spot for Disney villains!!!

[dropUrPeaches]

YOU ARE MY SAVIOR! XDD

Seriously, thank you thank you thank you thank you!

(Best Muppet film, EVAH. Not to mention I had the world's biggest crush on 'Jim'.)

[Daffyfan2006]

Reply to Zeppo's post: Something like that. I'm not exactly sure. I'll have to check my VHS copy again.

[xExpressUrSelfx]

I'll wash...I'll dry...I'll break!

[0oJokeo0]

@xExpressUrSelfx That line is very popular in my kitchen everyday^^

[Demonpop2]

I friggen love this movie.. :D

[TeamSylar]

This is still my fav movie

[sue9292]

I still find it amazing that hes Kevin Bishop, never realised until I rewatched it and he looked familiar, lol.

[bookworm266]

Is anyone else's film version missing the first verse? 'Cos mine is.

[ZeppoThePuppetMan]

@bookworm266 The first verse wasn't in the film. Sometimes parts of the song that were cut from the film still show up on the soundtrack.

[bookworm266]

@ZeppoThePuppetMan. OK, cool. Thanks.

[FillishTV]

aahh!!! love this!! <3

[mystuff222]

james sounds like a gal

[realar]

@mystuff222 They had a joke about that in the movie.

[RosaLui]

Wow, childhood memories. *_*

...Kevin Bishop grew up hot. XD

[Daffyfan2006]

Yeah. The ABC version edited out this song. That was cruel of them.

[ZeppoThePuppetMan]

@Daffyfan2006 So, what, did it just cut from the dish exchange to Billy Bones yelling about rum?

[MsMemphisFlyer]
