In 1987, Bruce Willis had a singing alter-ego named "Bruno." This character was primarily a Motown singer. He went from being just “that guy from Moonlighting,” to starring in an mockumentary called The Return Of Bruno. The movie is about Willis’ musical alter ego, a slick New Jersey rocker named Bruno Radolini. (The film also shared a title with Willis’ first album.) In the film, Radolini was responsible for everything from getting The Beatles together to inspiring a young Jon Bon Jovi to sing about the hard times, and he was also, in fact a key part of the “Second Revolutionary War,” a response to the British Invasion. He was a pretty big deal in this made-up entertainment world (This movie is hilarious.)... What other famous stars were featured in this mockumentary? Click "Next" to find out. The movie features an absolutely CRAZY cast, including names like Paul Stanley, Phil Collins, Ringo Starr, Michael J. Fox, and the Bee Gees. The film also includes a really great parody psychedelic-rock video in the middle of it. The song, "Under The Boardwalk" originally recorded by The Drifters, describes a date between a man and his lover in a seaside town, who plan to meet in private and "out of the sun" under a boardwalk. The instrumentation includes güiro, the triangle and an assembly of violins. The song's chorus is considered unique because it switches from a major to minor key. The opening line of the song references the Drifters' prior hit "Up On The Roof", setting the stage for an alternate meeting location, under the boardwalk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?vEPEqRMVnZNU Want to sing along?

The Drifters - Under The Boardwalk Lyrics: Oh when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire proof Under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be (Under the boardwalk) out of the sun (Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun (Under the boardwalk) people walking above (Under the boardwalk) we'll be falling in love Under the boardwalk, boardwalk! From the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel Mm-mm, you can almost taste the hot dogs and French fries they sell Under the boardwalk, down by the sea On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be (Under the boardwalk) out of the sun (Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun (Under the boardwalk) people walking above (Under the boardwalk) we'll be making love Under the boardwalk, boardwalk! Ooh, under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be (Under the boardwalk) out of the sun (Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun (Under the boardwalk) people walking above (Under the boardwalk) we'll be falling in love Under the boardwalk, boardwalk!
