Somebody's Baby - Jackson Browne (1982)

Next up is a personal favorite of mine ...Jackson Browne's "Somebody's Baby". This catchy number was not released on any of Browne's albums prior, but on the soundtrack to the film Fast Times at Ridgemont High. The film also featured the song at several key moments, mostly concerning the Jennifer Jason Leigh character's misadventures with sex in a Little League dugout. Isn't it amazing on the things just a few notes of a song can make one reminisce.

At first I was going to feature this song with a backdrop of a standard fanmade Jackson Browne video displaying his many LP covers, but after sampling it again while absorbing the beauty of a Jenni Kohoutova makes the experience that much richer. I believe I made the proper choice....ENJOY!

More to come next week...

Great song. You are right, some songs just remind you of certain things and times. Nice bonus with the video, too....
