166 “RHYME-AROUND”
international headquarters inside the United Nations building in New York
City.
“Rhyme-Around” is the rousing charm song that is featured in a rustic
scene of jubilation in the film Those Calloways (1965). At a party in rural
Vermont to celebrate the completion of the Calloway cabin by the townsfolk,
Lydia Calloway (Vera Miles) suggests that they play a musical game
called “Rhyme-Around” in which each player has to make up a musical
rhyme about someone else in the room. Soon all the neighbors are playing
and singing, each creating a verse. The final rhyme is performed by the
crusty Alf Simes (Walter Brennan), who uses it as a comical way to get Cam
Calloway’s son Bucky (Brandon De Wilde) and his romantic interest, Bridie
Mellott (Linda Evans), to go outside and admit their love for each other.
Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman wrote the contagious square dance
music and the fun lyric, which serves as a witty commentary on the locals.
“Right Here, Right Now” is the pop love song about making the most of
the time given to you, written by Jamie Houston for the movie sequel High
School Musical 3: Senior Year (2008). High school senior Troy Bolton (Zac
Efron) and his girlfriend, Gabriella (Vanessa Anne Hudgens), meet in his
tree house after the final basketball game of the season and sing this bittersweet
duet, knowing that time is running out and soon they will no longer
be high school students.
“Right Where I Belong” is the pop ballad about finding yourself and the
place where you are happiest, heard in the video sequel The Jungle Book 2
(2003). Lorraine Feather and Joel McNeely wrote the soaring ballad, the
lyric commenting on the young hero in the story, and it is sung by Windy
Wagner on the soundtrack over the final credits of the video.
“Rolie Polie Olie” is the tuneful title song for the 1998 animated children’s
television series that takes place in a world where everything is round. The
calliope-like number is sung by a studio chorus over the opening credits,
singing the praises of the six-year-old Olie, who is small, round, and a swell
kid.
“Roll Along” is the mournful, pensive ballad with an old-time Southern
flavor that is heard in the adventure movie Ten Who Dared (1960). Two of
the men on an expedition down the Colorado River, the southerner George
Bradley (Ben Johnson) and the Yankee Walter Powell (James Drury), settle
