206 “TRASHIN’ THE CAMP”
song on the soundtrack, the lyric promising to take one into a new world
where all will be made clear. Songwriter Collins also recorded the enthralling
number.
“Trashin’ the Camp” is the scat-singing delight Phil Collins wrote for the
animated movie Tarzan (1999), and one of the musical and visual treats of
the film. Terk (voice of Rosie O’Donnell) and the other apes discover the
camp of the humans deep in the African jungle and joyfully destroy it as
they frolic and play with the strange objects they encounter. The rhythmic
number cleverly begins with Terk hitting the keys on a typewriter, which
sets the beat, and Collins is heard singing the nonsense scat song on the
soundtrack as the number builds and the camp is thoroughly trashed. In
the 2006 Broadway version of Tarzan, the number was performed by Terk
(Chester Gregory II) and the apes. A recording of the number and a music
video was made by the group ’N Sync.
“Trick or Treating with Our Friends” is the happy-go-lucky Halloween
song written by Michael and Patty Silversher for the made-for-video film
Pooh’s Heffalump Halloween Movie (2005). As they anticipate Halloween,
Winnie the Pooh (voice of Jim Cummings), Piglet (John Fiedler), Tigger
(also Cummings), and Eeyore (Peter Cullen) sing this merry number about
getting candy and searching out Spookables. At the end of the movie, the
kangaroos Kanga (Kath Soucie) and Roo (Jimmy Bennett) and the elephant
Lumpy (Kyle Stanger) join Pooh and his friends in reprising the song.
“True Love Is an Apricot” is the farcical pastiche of an improvised beatnik
song, written by Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman for the space film
The Moon Pilot (1962). When the American astronaut Captain Richmond
Talbot (Tom Tryon) is asked to pick out the foreign spy who tried to conspire
with him, he must observe a lineup of women taken off the streets of
San Francisco to see if he recognizes the culprit. One of the suspects is a
guitar-playing beatnik who strums and sings this risible number about the
essence of love, made up on the spot and hilariously pretentious.
“True Love’s Kiss” is the satiric love duet written by Alan Menken (music)
and Stephen Schwartz (lyric) for the modern fairy tale film Enchanted
(2007). In the animated section of the movie, the eager Giselle (voice of
Amy Adams) sings the soaring song, about a special kiss that promises
happy endings, to her animal friends as they decorate a dummy to look like
a handsome prince. Later in the animated sequence, after Prince Edward
