Is there anybody who is familiar with the songs that are played
in "Benny and Joon"? The sound track only contains the Proclaimers'
song. The movie has two songs, "Have a little faith in me" and "Can't
find my way home." Whose songs are they? I'll appreciate your help!

"Can't Find My Way Home" was Blind Faith, with Steve Winwood,
Ginger Baker, Eric Clapton, and one other player. The band was
pre-Traffic, and pre-Cream.

Sorry, I don't know where the movie was filmed.

I wasn't asking where the movie was filmed, I was asking where the songs
played in it. If you could tell me that, I would appreciate it. Actually,
I would like to know which song played while Aidan Quinn was walking along
the train tracks. Thanks.

According to Joon's medical alert card, the movie was set in Spokane,
Washington. Can any Spokanians (Spokanites?) on the 'Net confirm that
it was actually filmed there?

If they can, what is that fortress-like building opposite Oliver
Platt's character's house? It looks like a prison, so I guess it was an
ordinary inner-city American high school.

(That was a joke, BTW)

Bzzt. Post-Cream. "Can't find my way home" is from their self-titled
debut album, and I think also on a live one a half-collapsed neuron is
telling me was released. It's also on any number of Clapton anthologies,
including a particularly good live one on either "The Cream of Eric
Clapton" or "Backtracking" (if that's the name of the early-90s double
LP stacked against my vids), which might have come from an earlier live
album ("<something> One Night", maybe).

"Have a little faith in me"... sorry. No idea.

It was filmed in Spokane, Washington. THE PUDMAN KNOWS LOTS OF USELESS INFO.

I haven't seen the film but I can guess that it was "500 miles" by the Proclaimers, a Scottish band. The name of the CD is "Sunshine on Leith".

A couple of people told me that "Have a Little Faith in Me" is by Joe Cocker.
No?
