Yeah pretty similar!

Some names from the 80's there! Fox & Crispin Glover ---Back to the Future, Dana Plato (pre porn) and Willis----Different Strokes, Anthony Edwards---Top Gun and that hospital show.....is that the guy from Top Gear USA talking to Crispin Glover on the phone at the start?

I happened to stumble upon it randomly because I had never seen it before. But man, I didn't know that about Dana Plato, I'm surprised I didn't hear about it before...

Well... Robert admitted that it is him. He said it took him a few listens to realize it was him because he totally forgot about performing the song.

Wait, are you telling me there exists TWO movies with both Michael J. Fox AND Crispin Glover? Holy crap!

Also, wonder why I've never heard about this film before when it has/had so many 80s names attached to it...

But yeah, that's Robert all right. Funny how at first it doesn't sound like him that much but as the song advances you can slowly make up it is actually him. Pretty nice discovery none the less! Guess the movie wasn't all that succesful is Rober had totally forgotten he performed the song.

How cool! I knew it had to be him. I was fascinated at the beginning when I saw it, and I ended up staying for the whole thing. I gotta say I liked it.
