Please God! Help me out with my Question


I think that I might have seen this movie around the time that it came out, but I'm not sure. The main reason for my uncertainty is that I was 7 years old when this movie came out. The movie I am thinking of has this scene that I thought was really funny/cool when I was 7. It involved the alien villan (who loved listening to rock music) coming into contact with a record player. When he turned it on, it played this easy listening crap that had the lyrics, "I belive in sunshine, even through the rain. I belive in happiness, even through the pain." The song then gets cut off because the alien villan throws the record player against the wall in disgust. It was awesome. My question is, was that scene in this movie? If not, does anyone know what movie it was that I saw by chance? Any answer or help would be appreciated a lot.

"I believe in happiness when I'm going through the pain".
Does anyone know if that song exists? I thought that scene was very funny, that the alien had very distinct tastes in music.
I've been trying to find that song for years (just for the hell of it) but I don't see the lyrics anywhere. Does the DVD commentary reveal anything about it? Is it perhaps the director singing or some sick thing like that? :)

Only that the original song being played was a Frank Sinatra song but was changed due to the fact that since this alien was into heavy rocky music, it would make sense that most rock music lovers have a total disdain for country music & the alien broke the record player as soon as he heard it. It worked out much better this way.

It sure did. Cool, man.
