Last night I saw the new movie, Funny People in theaters and I really enjoyed some of the music featured in the film. So I decided to share a couple of the songs from the movie with you guys for ' Music Monday.'
This first song is actually performed by the star of the movie, Adam Sandler. It's a cover of the song "Real Love" that was written by John Lennon in 1979/1980 but unreleased until 1988 when used on the soundtrack for the documentary, Imagine: John Lennon. The song was then reworked by the three remaining members of The Beatles (Paul, George, and Ringo) and released as a Beatles single in 1996. Adam Sandler actually does a fantastic rendition of the song that effectively captures the mood of the film. Check out Adam Sandler's version below (ignore the intro):
Surprisingly, Adam Sandler wasn't the only actor of Funny People that got to show off his musical talents. Cast member Jason Schwartzman's solo music project Coconut Records also contributes two songs to the soundtrack of the film. Check out the song, "Wires" below:

Wow, it sounds awesome... His character in this film was a little on the darker side. Either way, his acting in the movie was good. [Thumbs Up]
