Subject: NO TIME IN A MOVIE

Yes, No Time was featured in a key scene in a film called The Pirates of Silicone Valley...it was the story of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs...the song is featured in a scene in which Steve Jobs is repeatedly turned down by bank after bank while carrying a MACINTOSH prototype under his arm, trying his best to get financial backing for the wondrous invention...I watched the film twice and I was extremely proud that they used No Time...Anthony Michael Hall did a marvelous job of portraying Bill Gates and the whole inside story of the arduous road travelled in making our modern computer driven world a reality was handled very well I thought...
I love the fact that so many of our older songs are now being used in modern movies. It makes me extremely proud and gives me an almost child like excitement...
Hope you get a chance to see The Pirates of Silicone Valley...

Luck and Health

BC

Wish some radio station, or programmer had the brains to play the " Canned Wheat " Version of NO TIME on the airwaves up here in Northern Calif. U.S.A.

Seems to me, that I'm not the only one who thinks that the Canned Wheat version of No Time is better and more rocking than the American Woman version, the latter one has always sounded too polished to me.

Nope, you're not alone. When I first heard the Canned Wheat version I was blown away by many of the openings I hadn't heard before. I really loved the piano opening of Undun.
