Head credits song’s lyrics: Lyrics for the opening song, Guiding Hand, sung by Hugh Wilson and the Blue Phoenix: Ooohhh ... They tell me how the world is shaking A needle addict died tonight Compared to this my pain is so small But even so this staggers mind Sometimes I wonder what this game’s for Wearing masks that heighten the show Don’t tell me what I know is true ‘Cause I never want to see her face again I never want to feel there’s so much more I never want to feel her mind again I don’t care if I don’t even the score The rogue heights, the fear of falling The goal’s sometimes hard to sight But her voice never ceases calling Stretching dress, so hard to find Sometimes I wonder what this game’s for Wearing masks that heighten the show Don’t tell me what I know is true (edit for movie version) Because I never want to see her face again (Chorus: freedom, freedom) I never want to feel there’s so much more (freedom, freedom) I never want to see her face again (freedom, freedom) I don’t care (freedom, freedom) Help me get my freedom, freedom Ohhhhhh, help me gain my freedom Ohhhhhh. The song peaked at #88 on the AMR/Aria singles chart in 1992 (details here). Hugh Wilson’s Bandcamp page is here, suggesting that Wilson later veered towrds faith-based music. (He was with the Christian City Church in Manhattan). His YouTube channel was here, and his Facebook page was here, and his LinkedIn page here. Wilson had a more recent outing with the band Brooklyn Social, with a short bio at Triple J here: “Hugh Wilson had a semi-nomadic childhood in the Australian desert, eventually settling in Sydney. At the age of 19, Hugh was the winner in the male vocal category of Star Search - a nationally televised viewer-voted talent competition. Shortly after winning he signed to Polydor Records, releasing his debut and critically acclaimed album ‘Illiad’. Hugh later teamed up with the Leigh brothers of Pseudo Echo to form the band, Vertigo, enjoying success in the Australian charts, with what a critic called "the voice of an angel and the stage presence that hails from the dark side". In 2000, Hugh moved to New York to further his career in the US and in 2005-06 joined Lenny Kravitz's band as a vocalist for a US tour with Aerosmith.” At time of writing, the full song was available on YouTube here. This version contained the middle section deleted from the movie, including: (Guitar solo) Find a window What we live for Wearing masks that heighten the show Don’t tell me what I know is true (Below: Hugh Wilson) Lyrics for song over tail credits: The song Tell Me Tomorrow was written and performed by Maurice D’Abruzzo. Ooohh (Chorus: Tell me tonight) I know you want to be loved But no word passes from your lips I know you want to be soothed But no touch comes from your fingertips If there is a way to send a message Better do it before I go Let me help you out ‘Cause I can tell you Everything that you should know If you want to be the only one You better say it, just say it (Chorus: Tell me tonight) Today I stand here waiting to sound the drum I’m gonna pray that You will tell me tomorrow Know that nothing is sure In this crazy world of ours Maybe there is no cure To the silence that surrounds us But if there is a time To take your chances This is the time to show Let me help you out ‘Cause I can tell you Everything that you should know If you want to be the only one You better say it, just say it (Chorus: Tell me tonight) Today I stand here waiting to sound the drum I’m gonna pray that You will tell me tomorrow (Chorus: Tell me tonight, tell me tonight, tell me tonight) Know that nothing is sure In this crazy world of ours Maybe there is no cure ... (fades out).
