Lads, you're lookin' at
The Commitmentettes.

:27:16
The Commitment-tits, yeh mean!
:27:19
Brilliant management, Brother Rabbitte.
:27:21
Will they be dressed in black?
:27:27
What are you bleedin' lookin' at?
:27:33
Destination anywhere
:27:37
East or west, I don't care

From now on, I don't want you listenin'
to Guns N' Roses an' The Soup Dragons.

:28:06
I want a strict diet of James Brown for
the growls, Otis Redding for the moans,

:28:10
Smokey Robinson for the whines,
and Aretha for the whole lot put together.

:28:14
- Jimmy says soul is sex.
- Dirty bastard!

:28:16
I said the rhythm of soul
is the rhythm of ridin'.

:28:19
You want us to sing as if
we were ridin'with someone?

:28:22
You can practise with me.
:28:24
I'd bite your bollix off, yeh spotty fuck!
:28:27
- Might fancy that.
- Or make earrings out o' them!

:28:30
Soul is the rhythm of sex.
Rhythm of the factory, too.

:28:33
The working man's rhythm.
Sex and the factory.

:28:35
Not in the factory I'm in.
Not much rhythm in guttin' fish!

:28:39
Soul is the music that people understand.
It's basic and it's simple.

:28:43
But it's somethin' else. Somethin' special.
Cos... cos it's honest.

:28:47
It's honest. There's no fuckin' bullshit.
:28:50
It says it straight from the heart.
:28:52
There's lots of music yeh can get off on,
but... soul is more than that.

:28:56
It takes yeh somewhere else. It grabs you
by the balls and lifts you above the shite.
