I've removed the link in the body of the article when it mentions she was the one who happened to sing the song played during a montage in the film (paraphrasing). It seemed unnecessary to blatantly add a link to this site directly after it, since it seemed like shameless self-promotion.
I'm all for providing a reference link if absolutely necessary, but just sticking it in haphazardly to drawn in hits to the site is slightly ridiculous. If someone can figure out a way to work it in appropriately to conform with the content of the article, then by all means feel free to add it back in. 71.156.89.108 03:08, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
It was just never acknowledged as such. It's a ripoff. Just like "Splash" was a ripoff of another obscure film from 1948, "Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid."
What is your proof that this is NOT a remake of "One Touch of Venus"? Very strange for the entry to state that, but that's wikipedia for you.

This article should add the theme tune - a song (this should at least go in the box on the top right-hand corner). After all, this song reached number in the UK_Singles_Chart in 1987. ACEOREVIVED ( talk) 20:09, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
