    Going by the name of the song I'm wondering if that's a sax in the background or something else! That aside I like the song a lot!

    @krystynn : This was also on the Malcom X soundtrack, a different better version tho.

    Is this an alternate version or something? Sounds so different, so, well, wrong. Almost like it's flat or something.

    @krystynn: It used to be the theme for "Dinner & a Movie" on TBS. :P

    Do you think Mohammed Ali got some of his vocal style from Louis?

    Not one of Louis' greatest - but his bouncy personality comes through.A real original.
