Why is it that Journey's movie songs are so damn good? Only the young,Ask the lonely,Remember me,and Only Solutions... hell ,I loved Only Solutions,it was different,it fit the movie.. Ask the Lonely was fav,and Remember me..OMG..I remember hearing that,not knowing that Journey even had a new lead singer..I never even heard the song,I went and bought the cd and wet myself when I heard it..Augeri was great! That song was so damn good,I remember thinking,my god,it sounds like their older stuff..I was floored by the piano,the singing,the lyrics..Neal's guitar was freaking awesome!! One of my top all time songs and Perry isn't singing it..Go figure!

You are so right..

"Remember Me" was so awesome, and Steve Augeri simply nailed that song so perfectly.
Lots of emotion in his voice, and , he definitely was an asset for Journey all those years.
I am so glad he is out there singing again and wish him the absolute best!

Ask The Lonely was on the soundtrack of "Two of a Kind" with Travolta and Newton-John.

And yes,After The Fall was in "Risky Business".

"Only Solutions" is one of Journey's worst ever tunes, in my opinion.

Happy to Give was in the movie "North Shore". Cheesy movie from the 80's. I think it starred Nia Peeples.

Amazing how many great songs were lost on so many negligible movies.

Noted, and contested. :D

The lyrics are repetitive but Perry sounds great on it.

Another reason Journey was a great band in their day. In addition to great album's they dropped some extras on us unexpectedly.

Ask The Lonely, Only The Young and ....

Only Solutions

does anyone remember the 1982 movie 'the last american virgin' it had open arms in it.....

The plot closely follows the original Eskimo Limon, and revolves around protagonist Gary (Lawrence Monoson) a typical highschooler, and his friends Rick (Steve Antin) — the slick ladies man, and David (Joe Rubbo) — the "Belushi-esque" fat guy.Fast Times At Ridgemont High also came out around this time but did better business at the box office.

Most of the plot involves their numerous failed attempts to have sex. However, a love triangle develops between Gary, Rick and Karen (Diane Franklin, later of Better Off Dead fame). Gary is secretly in love with Karen, but his dreams of dating her are over when, after helping Karen get an abortion, he finds her back with Rick.



One day Gary happens to be delivering pizza to Carmela (Louisa Moritz), a lonely older woman whose sailor mate is never home, and she hints to him she wants more than just pizza. Being too afraid to follow on it, he goes away and convinces his friends to go along with him. They drop by her home using the pretext they were nearby on a pizza delivery and decided to bring her over some extra pizzas. She lets them in, puts on music and starts dancing.

Afterwards, she takes them in sequence - each in his turn - to have sex with her in her bedroom. Carmela's characteristic is that she moans loudly during the intercourse. Rick is the first to take initiative, and once he's done, he leaves her bedroom and sends David in. At first David hesitates, but follows up when Carmela tells him "Come to me, my big burrito!". After he's done, she exits her bedroom and points to Gary, but unfortunately for him just then Carmela's mate returns home. Gary and Rick manage to quickly dress before he sees them. Carmela pretends she was helping her "neighbor boys from downstairs" with their Spanish lessons, but then David walks out of her bedroom still in his underwear and says, "What a nympho." Carmela's mate gets furious and the protagonists (with David just half dressed) have to run away.


"Nice guys finish last"
Eventually, Rick gets Karen pregnant and leaves her. Gary decides to help Karen pay for her abortion by selling most of his possessions and borrowing money from his boss. After the abortion, Gary and Karen spend the remainder of the weekend alone together in Gary's grandmother's house. They seem to hit it off and Karen invites Gary to her birthday party the following week. Gary scrapes up a few more dollars and buys Karen a gold bracelet for her birthday.

However, when Gary arrives at the party, his dreams are shattered when he sees Karen making out with Rick. The film ends with the credits rolling over a close up of tears streaming down Gary's face as he drives home.

The Last American Virgin is memorable as the only film of the genre not to feature a happy ending.
