Recent movies that contain that song, per IMDB:

Fingernails (2023)
The Tsugua Diaries (2021)
The Birthday Cake (2021)

Ha, both the top two meet the criteria maybe that was the source of extra confusion.

But the most recent was the first one which is what I was currently trying to remember.

Because people were frenetically dancing to Frankie Valli singing “The Night” in Lancashire in 1974.

They were though.

According to the wiki page for the song they were!
Anyway, was I right?

It was the first one, Fingerprints.

Fingernails

But there are no wrong answers here.

Pictish in the Woods (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 19 January 2024 22:44 (one year ago)

Unless someone suggested a film without that song and without dancing to it.

And that wasn’t a snarky lol, it was a lol of love.

Had no idea about any of those covers either. Lena Lovich! Soft Cell! Pulp!

Maybe I should finally read that one Bob Stanley book.

Comment says this was originally going to be the single instead of “Tainted Love”!
