Good guess, but no. One of the three stars is a woman.

Re: Name that tune
Close enough Paul G! The full title is actually When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going.
The movie is The Jewel of the Nile, which was a follow up to Romancing the Stone. And the three stars of the movie were Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner and Danny DeVito. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S89K49BeBU
Anyway, it’s your turn to put one up.

Re: Name that tune
Paul, as far as I know, you never sing out of tune.
I do not have anything else stuck in my head, so I will post a song we heard on the radio over the weekend. We, and I am certain most of you, know the song, but we were struck by how relevant the lyrics are after 57 years.
"Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside ragin'."

Re: Name that tune
Technically, the word in the title is "Changin'", and the song was written and sung under a pseudonym.
But, you are correct!
Unfortunately, as previous noted, the times have not changed that much.

Re: Name that tune
Sorry - I always like to refer to Mr Dylan by his birth name .
Another easy one coming up :
"We were young and full of life
And none of us prepared to die"
Not sure how big this was in the States, but a massive hit elsewhere.

Re: Name that tune
Sounded familiar, but I couldn’t quite place it. So I asked the lovely Jennifer and she said Fernando by ABBA.

Re: Name that tune
I'm running out of songs. Every time I think of one, I do a search of the thread and find that it's already been asked. Often by me and often using the exact same lyrics! Anyway, this one does not appear to have come up previously.

another guess, but maybe warmer this time ... I'm thinking Warren Zevon and one of his crazy songs "Send xxx guns and money".
