What was that "music" Jay And Silent Bob sing with Brodie? - J&SB Strike Back

Cafe Society

In the beginning of “Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back”, J & SB are talking to Brodie (it’s not Bankie, is it?) in his comic book shop. At the end of the scene they sing some kind of music, and I suspect this is a reference to something that I, as an aging gen-x’er, should know.

Is it the theme song to something? Or what?

If the next scene is them pestering Holden in his studio, it’s the theme to Chasing Amy .

Thanks! I wouldn’t have gotten that in a thousand years. I saw Chasing Amy, and liked it, but it’s been a very long time.

Are you sure? I can distinctly remember the tune they…uh…hum (not sure how else to exactly describe it), but I don’t recall it being the theme to Chasing Amy (which I can’t quite remember how it goes, and I unfortunately don’t have a copy of it to watch.)

I think it’s similar to the tune that Jay and Silent Bob sing with Brodie in “Mallrats,” outside the pet store. But I could be wrong. And it doesn’t supply the original source of the tune.

It’s definitely Mewes’ and Lee’s take on the Chasing Amy theme. In fact the actual theme cuts in immediately after as the scene cuts across and the camera pans across Holden’s building.

You don’t mean this song do you. . .

Jay: [singing] / Fuck, fuck, fuck, / Mother, mother fuck, / Mother, mother fuck, fuck / Mother fuck, mother fuck, / Noich noich noich, / 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4, / Noich, noich noich / Smokin’ weed, smokin’ wizz, / Doin’ coke, drinkin’ beers, / Drinkin’ beers, beers, beers, / Rollin’ fattys, smokin’ blunts, / Who smokes the blunts? / We smoke the blunts. / Rollin’ blunts and smokin’…
Teen #1: Uh, let me get a nickel bag.
Jay: [singing] / Fifteen bucks, little man, / Put that shit in my hand, / If that money doesn’t show, / Then you owe me, owe me, owe, / My jungle love, yeah, / Owe-ee, owe-ee, owe, / I think I want to know ya, know ya, / Yeah, what?
Teen #2: What the hell are you singing?
Jay: You don’t know “Jungle Love?” That shit is the mad notes. Written by God herself and sent down to the greatest band in the world: The mother-fucking Time.
Teen #1: You mean the guys in that Prince movie?
Silent Bob: Yeah, Purple Rain.
Teen #1: Man, that shit was so gay - fucking eighties style.
I know it’s not what you mean. I just love this scene. fucking eighties style.
