Anyone for breakfast at Tiffany's?

I've really struggled to find an earworm today. Infact i'm not sure you can call it an earworm if you got it in your head by default.

Never the less I do have a song in my head now. Its been a long day involving a long drive down to Devon. My boyfriend and I made a 'road trip' play list and the old classic 'Breakfast at Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something' happened to come on.

I sang my heart out at the chorus to say the least. As did he (even if he doesn't want to admit it).

"I said what about,
Breakfast at Tiffany's,
she said I think I remember that film and
if I recall I think we both kinda liked,
and I said well thats, the one thing we've got."

Deep Blue Something released this song in 1995. It hit the number one spot in the UK and was their best song to date.

The background to the story is quite simply that he and his girlfriend are having issues, pretty much breaking up and in a desperate attempt to save the relationship he searches for something they still have in common. This is the Film Breakfast at Tiffany's. 


Therefore, Breakfast at Tiffany's inspired the song.

Breakfast at Tiffany's is a popular 1961 Audrey Hepburn film.

For those who haven't seen the film Holly (Audrey Hepburn) is an extrovert, classy young care free woman who eats pastry's whilst staring into the jewellery shop Tiffany's. She then continues on, to get stuck in romantic, dramatic love triangle.

I do love this song :)
It's lovely, and it reminds me of one of my favourite films. Everytime I hear it I always picture the scene of Audrey standing outside Tiffany's window eating her pastry and drinking her coffee.
