0 Guest Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Runaway Child, Running Wild? - by the Temptations Close, actually. It's funny how all of these clues are sending y'all on quite the wild goose chase! What a happy accident. Runaway doesn't jive with immature. And you gotta drop the "g" and add a ' to make the new word funky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 in with another post! Will that just be to name the movies they're from? In which case - Nowhere Man is featured in a few - I Am Sam, Yellow Submarine and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Mrs. Robinson - The Graduate Pinball Wizard - Tommy, The Kids Are Alright, The Greatest American Hero (I'm guessing Tommy?) Decode, then Twilight, and if I'm right with Little Child Running Wild, then 'Friday' or 'Pride'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Idea... is the link that the songs/soundtrack was more popular than the movie/grossed more than the movie? That's not quite it. One of the movies is one of the highest grossing in history. There is a common connection between each song and the soundtrack it was on.
