Madalina from Azuga, RomaniaI absolutely love this song - it was my first dance with my husband, the night of our wedding.I don't know any parent who would name both of their daughters Jennifer Danielle from Jackson, Mnit is highly unlikely that Jennifer Warnes is Baby's sister, since Baby's real name is also Jennifer.Guess someone can put and keep Baby in the corner now Kaylah from Stoneville, NcR.I.P Patrick Swayze.It's about a three-legged girl.off the subject, I realize but.anyone? Lisa from Milwaukee, Wi, WiDoes anyone know of a song by Mason Williams, in which Jennifer Warnes does a duet.Seventh Mist from 7th HeavenI especially love the uncut version of this song, with the brass solos, that was used in the movie.Peggy from Cheadle ,staffs.The song “ I’ve Had The Time Of My Life” makes me feel very sad and mournful.There couldn't be any group, cooler, edgier, and more hip than the Black Eyed Peas to record it." The song has now crossed over to the next generation in a huge way. It just reconfirms to me that the song is cross-generational. To have a group like the Peas do it gives it Lives 10, 11 and 12. '(I've Had) The Time of My Life' really is the song that has nine lives. The Black Eyed Peas bring a whole new level awareness to our charity efforts that we couldn't have dreamed of in a million years. "As we've started working to fight cancer in Patrick's memory through the release of the original demos, first it was Jennifer coming back into the public spotlight in a big way on TV, and now the Black Eyed Peas come along and cover it – all in a matter of weeks. "What amazes me most is the timing," said Previte. It also ran parallel with the re-emergence of Jennifer Grey as a heavily favored contestant on ABC's Dancing With The Stars, which she ended up winning. The demo's release coincided with superstar pop group Black Eyed Peas basing their single " The Time (The Dirty Bit)" around a sample of this song. On September 8, 2010, the original demo of this song, along with a remix by producer Michael Lloyd, was released as digital files in an effort to raise money for the Patrick Swayze Pancreas Cancer Resarch Foundation at Stanford University. Watching that scene for the first time, Previte says, "My feelings were over the top. The film's most memorable scene really had been filmed to our demo of '(I've Had) The Time Of My Life.'" He said it was crucial that he, Jennifer and the rest of the cast filming that scene develop an immediate camaraderie and that the demo was a big part in helping them do just that. And, there was a lot riding on getting it right. Patrick explained that the movie was filmed out of sequence and the finale scene was the first thing they shot. Previte recalls finding out from Swayze how important his demo of the song was to the film: "He told me that the Dirty Dancing dance finale scene was actually shot to my original demo of '(I've Had) The Time Of My Life.' I had performed the song with my duet partner, Rachele Cappelli. It was featured in the climactic scene of the 1987 movie Dirty Dancing, starring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey. But I WILL mention I have no interest in seeing "Havanna Nights", this one they should have left alone.This was co-written by Franke Previte of Franke And The Knockouts, who hit #10 with "Sweetheart" in 1981. This movie is always on TV and I will continue to watch it as long as they show it. Dirty Dancing has a nostalgic, languid, summery mood, realistic characters, a relateable honest message coupled with incredible music and dancing, and the one of the best dance sequences cinema has ever given us. I don't think there is one particular element that makes this movie so loved but many things, a lot of which are mentioned by numerous reviewers. It is an instant classic and I've never really seen a movie like it either before or since. The characters, the chemistry between Swaze and Grey, the movie's direction, the INCREDIBLE dancing, the warm summery atmosphere, everything about dirty dancing is absolutely perfect. I think their up there but there is something about Dirty Dancing that just makes it absolutely perfect. I have loved other "blockbuster love story movies" like Pretty Woman and when Harry met Sally. There is something timeless about this movie. This is one movie that I could probably watch every few weeks and still love. I can't even count how many times I've seen Dirty Dancing. This timeless summer love story is a classic and will never be dated.
