Ca Plein Pour Moi
An open invitation to put Barnaby out of his misery: Does anyone know which film soundtracks Plastic Bertrand's hit Ca Plein Pour Moi has been used on? He's sure he's heard it, but isn't sure where. We've found a few, but he hasn't seen them, and I think it's frustrating him a little....

I wish I could help, but i don’t even know the song … any chance of an mp3?

i know the song and i can even hear it (no singing though) if it is in a film i would think it is based in the 80′s (or shot in the 80′s)
not that helps (although for some reason i can visualise a chase seen done to the music)

The answer is Clerk’s shoes. The funky jumping kid one.

Tragically, that’s not the answer we’re looking for – it was its use in the Clarks ad that first got us on to the subject. I haven’t actually seen the ad myself, but that was where we started out on our great quest.

Here is a clue: the title is in fact “Ca plane pour moi”.
The correct spelling will certainly help for a google search. However, I don’t know which movie it’s from. I didn’t even know that it was the soundtrack from a movie.

Yeah becuase I was looking up ca ‘pleine’… and got some god awful ‘tropical’ band full of marimbas and whatnotnot. Ugh. More worryingly for Barnaby, I found Ca Plane Pour Moi on Pamela Anderson’s Barb Wire soundtrack… (ick)

Tragically again, I even knew that was the spelling, and still got it wrong. Barnaby *claims* that he’s never seen Barn Wire – you may believe that if you choose. It’s on the soundtrack to the Rachel Griffiths’ film Me, Myself, I too, which he also says he hasn’t seen.

As far as I can remember, it was used in the National Lampoons European vacation, with Chevy Chase. Hope that helps in some small way

The movie is “EuroTrip” (2004) – and unbelievably, the song (original version by Plast Betrand) is NOT included on the movie soundtrack – but it is listed in the movie credits.
