[edit] Appearances

[edit] Use in Film, TV and Radio Soundtracks

  • "Pearl's Girl" is one of the tracks heard on the bad guys' car stereo when they are in pursuit of Simon Templer (Val Kilmer) and Dr Emma Russell (Elizabeth Shue) in The Saint. Director Philip Noyce mixed Graeme Revell's original score with source music heard on radios throughout various points in the film to produce a rich tapestry of sound.
  • "Pearl's Girl" was used as the theme music for the Channel 4 drama series "Psychos". It was set in a mental ward and featured the late Nicholas Clay amongst the cast.
  • In 1998 "Pearl's Girl" was used as the backing track to Radio 1's Newsbeat giving a cutting edge feel to the fast-moving news programme. Obviously the words were edited out. The drum sounds were played in a continuous loop until the end of each bulletin.
