  • Truthseeker from OrUNTRUE: "Starship were originally called Jefferson Airplane, then Jefferson Starship, and then Starship." Jefferson Starship was a NEW and distinct band, formed in 1974, two years after Jefferson Airplane finally ended (it had been dying on the vine before that). After Paul Kantner and Grace Slick's solo projects hadn't panned out, a new band was formed with some of the same members who had been in the Airplane (but not all, namely the lead guitarist/songwriter, Craig Chaquico and bass player/keyboardist/songwriter Pete Sears). Jefferson Starship got its name from a 1970 solo album of Paul Kantner's from when he was still in the Airplane. If this is supposed to be about "facts," you ought to get that straight and not just repeat rumour and marketing spin.
  • Dogtired from UsaWho were the two blondes in the music video? Not sure if they were part of the band as backing vocals and playing the tambourines.
  • Joe from Grand Haven, MiAccording to Songfacts, "Grace Slick pulled a fast one on Chick-fil-A" by donating money to "Lambda Legal". Remaining unclear is how Slick concluded that her donation to a third party could possibly affect Chick-Fil-A in the slightest. If she imagined that she could change their mind she deluded herself.
  • M.f. Elliott from West Haven, Ct 06516Nothings Gonna Stop Us now is an endearing song in Mannequin! Starship has always released amazing music. I write novels and I would be honored to be given written permission to utilize five lines from the song Nothings Gonna Stop Us Now in a new book of mine. I appreciate all feedback. Sincerely,
    M.F. Elliott, Author of PASSAGES THROUGH TIME
  • James from LeicesterMusicFan99 - people will always associate this song as the main tune to Mannequin - fans of the film will recognise both songs. But for me - This will always be the 'love theme' to the film.
  • Jg from NcHey Music Fan 99, you don't get to choose what song will be the theme song of a movie. Just read everyone else's comments and you can clearly see what this song meant to others. Millions of others would agree that this song is it. Many wouldn't be able to even remember the other song. This song doesn't start playing during the credits. It actually starts at the ending of the mannequin shedding scene and continues into the short wedding scene and then into the credits. Big difference because everyone would definitely be seated. I guess you stood up and walked out by this point. Don't exaggerate to make your point. It makes you look stupid.
  • Esskayess from Dallas, TxGood song used in a godawful flick.
  • Barry from Sauquoit, NyWas nominated for Best Song at the 1987 Academy Awards {Lost to "I've Had the Time of My Life" from the movie "Dirty Dancing"}!!!
  • Music Fan99 from Houston, TxThis was the song that played during the ending credits of the movie. This was by no means the "theme song"... a movie's theme never gets played for the very 1st time while people are standing up and leaving the theater while the end credits roll. "In My Wildest Dreams" by Belinda Carlisle was the main title theme with the animation etc... which thematically was repeated many times during thr film. Get a f--king clue before publishing wrong information about both movies and their songs.
  • Linc from Beaumont, TxThe Mannequin Movie was soooo awful! I thought it was dumb when it came out and I was only 7!
  • Helen from Logan City, AustraliaThis is one of the best motivation songs around and this song will be played at a fundraiser for cancer along with many other motivational songs for the night. This is to enable cancer sufferers to forget about their cancers for one night and enjoy themselves. Helen QLD
  • Nicola from London, EnglandThis song is great to sing to it, and a very powerful ballad. This song is romantic, and a great way to dance to.
  • Aureleo from Ponda- Goa, India"Nothing's gonna Stop.." is probably one of the best Rock Ballads I've ever heard.
  • Shay from Key West, FlThe Starting Line did a cover of this song...it's probably way more cool
  • Nige from Southampton, EnglandOne of the most requested songs at Wedding receptions as the bride and groom leave
  • Sarah from Ottawa, CanadaHehehe....I used to love this song when I was 6 years old because I think that's the first time I watched Mannequin. It is a great song.
