The Ground Beneath Her Feet

Suddenly, I remembered with one of U2 songs titled The Ground Beneath Her Feet. I don't know why these words sound sexy in my ear.

Here it is the lyric, so you can sing along with the video,
The Ground Beneath Her Feet
All my life, I worshipped her
Her golden voice, her beauty's beat
How she made us feel
How she made me real
And the ground beneath her feet
And the ground beneath her feet

And now I can't be sure of anything
Black is white, and cold is heat
For what I worshipped stole my love away
It was the ground beneath her feet
It was the ground beneath her feet

Go lightly down your darkened way
Go lightly underground
I'll be down there in another day
I won't rest until you're found

Let me love you, let me rescue you
Let me bring you where two roads meet
O come back above
Where there is only love
Only love...

My oh my, My oh my
My oh my, My oh my
My oh my, My oh my

My oh my, My oh my
My oh my, My oh my
Let me love you true, let me rescue you
Let me bring you to where two roads meet

Let me love you true, let me rescue you
Let me bring you to where two roads meet

My oh my, My oh my
My oh my, My oh my

Maybe the sexy voice of Bono that made me considered the title is sexy. I do like U2 with Bono, even I am not a big fans. But I do love several of their songs.

Yes, this song was created based on Salman Rushdie's novel which has the same title The Ground Beneath Her Feet. This first appeared on the soundtrack to the movie the Million Dollar Hotel. The movie was a flop and the soundtrack sold poorly, so U2 put this on their own album because they felt more people should hear it.

Enjoy the trailer and then, read for its synopsis.
Set in 2001, the film opens with Tom Tom (Jeremy Davies) taking a flying leap off the roof of the Million Dollar Hotel, an ironically titled dive in the seedy section of L.A. Told in an extended flashback, Tom Tom recounts the murder investigation of a down-and-out artist and son of a media mogul, Izzy Goldkiss (Tim Roth), who also fell off the hotel. FBI special agent Skinner (none other than Mel Gibson), sporting a neck brace, looks into the death only to discover that the building is teeming with weirdos and losers. There is Vivien (Amanda Plummer), who claims to be the fiancée of the rock star; Geronimo (Jimmy Smits), a huckster trying to make a buck by selling Izzy's abstract painting; Eloise (Milla Jovovich), a burned out prostitute with a passion for intellectual literature; and Dixie (Peter Stormare), who swears up and down that he is the fifth Beatle. As the film progresses, Skinner proves to be just as much of a freak as the hotel tenets -- he was born with a third arm that was surgically removed from his back.

I saw the movie along time ago, and only some memory flashing from my mind about several scenes such as Mel Gibson with a weird stuff on his back, desperate face of Milla etc etc etc.
I am planning to look for the DVD of this movie and seeing it again. I don't know when :)
Before you see this movie again, would you like to share what scenes do you remember still?
