Need help figuring out what movie soundtrack this song was from?

[aerofx]

Okay- I'm trying to figure out what soundtrack a song was from. The artist is 311 & the song is "Amber" & I first heard the song in the movie 50 First Dates... I remember hearing this song in another movie & it's driving me crazy trying to figure out what movie it was from. If anyone can help I would appreciate it!!!!! :o

[justme23]

The song is actually Love Song according to www.moviemusic.com ... I am having a hard time finding out what other movies it was in.

Ok, yes, you HAVE heard the song before... in probably dozens of films... but search for it by The Cure. 311 only did a cover.

This information is wrong... if you go to www.mtv.com you can find the correct information.

Next, 311's contributes a cover of The Cure's "Love Song," which will have you "jammin' man." Then Seal covers Echo and the Bunnymen's "Lips like Sugar."

me either LOL i usually never get wrong info from there but went back and down the left sideunder external links, theres a link for the official site, oh well guess theres a first for everything

thanks for the correction

[fatesfaery]

It was originall done by The Cure( Robert Smith wrote it for his wife the night they got married). It's been covered by 311, Snake River Conspiracy, Tori Amos, Jack off Jill, Amberlin and many others (DS had a CD he burned that was nothing but Love Song covers). There have been several Cure songs on soundtracks, but I can't find where Love Song has been on any other soundtracks.

According to what suprtruckr posted (the entire soundtrack listing) there is a song called Amber by 311 and there is also a song called Love Song by 311 (as well as many others). Maybe the information isn't wrong, but there are just two different songs.
