Quentin Tarantino’s 1994 film, Pulp Fiction, has many memorable moments but the scene when Uma Thurman’s Mia returns from a date with Vincent Vega and plays Girl You’ll Be a Woman Soon €is one of the classic ones as is everything that follows. This great song by Urge Overkill is actually a cover of the original written and performed by Neil Diamond but the group more than made it their own.
Certain songs evoke certain images and memories whenever I hear them. This one from Urge Overkill will always make me think of Pulp Fiction, beginning with Mia dancing at home and getting high, while Vincent is in the bathroom convincing himself not to sleep with his boss’ wife. From there I recall all the film’s many great moments but while Tarantino gave us an undoubted classic, Urge Overkill played their part with their wonderful rendition of a quality song.
