I love this clip - it takes all the highlights. "Cutting Edge" is still one of my all-time favorite "feel-good" movies. When I'm having a bad day/week/month, I make a big pot of macaroni and cheese and tuck in with this movie. And my brother snorts in disgust and hides in his bedroom with CNN. (How I wish I was kidding.)

That whole soundtrack is pretty awesome...

All I really knew from these guys was "Oh Yeah!", thanks to Ferris Bueller... : )

For some reason this tune just screams Leslie Nielsen. If he doesn't have his own theme music, this should be it.

Yes, exactly. Hopelessly dorky connotations when I hear the opening notes. Visions of psychedelic cheerleaders are dancing in my head.

Oh no. I can't listen to this!! It was used as background music for a car dealer back in Southern California. Now it sounds like nails on a chalkboard to me.

Yello's "Oh Yeah" was also used in Michael J. Fox's "The Secret of My Success" during a seduction scene. Not an outstanding movie, but it had some hilarious moments.
