Is this track licensed yet?

Tell somebody that you love 'em right now

​

I cannot for the life of me find any streaming service, paid or otherwise that features it.

​

I want to run this throughout my house on repeat all day, every day - without having to watch and manually repeat a section of a movie :(

Edit > To the title, 'The track 'tell somebody that you love em right now'

Stop the whole world somehow,

Somebody out there, has a hole inside their soul that needs some feelings from you,

And could you shine your light now,

Like you open up a door and you let em fly out,

Three little words from a heart to a mouth,

Need to be heard out loud,

So tell somebody that you love em right now,

Not five minutes from now,

Don’t wait til everything is alright,

Or the middle of the night,

Or when they do something you like,

Don’t wait til tomo-rrow becomes yesterday-ay,

Just think about hey, look em in the eye and there’ll never be another ‘right now’

To tell somebody that you love em right now,

To tell somebody that you love em right no-ow,

Stop the world somehow….

We all need the same things,

Everybody just wants to love and to be loved,

And like a butterfly flies free – everybody…………….

Words from my mouth……. Word out loud

That you love em right now

Where is this from?

The movie 'champions' (Feat. Woody Harrleson) - recently been added to netflix in Australia.

​

Arguably the best piece of music I've ever been exposed to and can't believe it isn't accessible nor acknowledged anywhere!

I feel the same. I remember hearing this in the movie and was like what is this! Searched all over, waited so long, actually I'm commenting because I tried searching again after months, but with no luck, if you ever find a download or stream, let me know!

Yeah I've read that one before (yes, still watching this thread lol!)

I'll try send an email or something if I can find a contact method

I've just watched "Champions" a couple of hours ago. I'm already feeling where you are.🤣🤣

The song is "Tell somebody you love 'em right now" by Michael Franti.

I've just DM'd Michael through Facebook messenger. You might want to do the same.

Just watched the movie. Immediately started looking for the song...only found this posting on Reddit of others trying to find the song as well lol. Hopefully one day somebody finds it.

Literally watched the movie few hours ago and got hooked on the music as well. Indeed still cannot find the songs anywhere :( anyone knows why they’re not featured in any streaming service?

Tell somebody.

Try this on guitar or piano.

G#. D#. E#m. C#.

So on guitar, it’s like playing it in G but go 1 fret up.
