Quick question for any fans of this movie...

When James and Louis tie up the cops to the playground there is a very famous piece of classical music playing. Tons of other movies have used this but I can't find it listed in the soundtrack... Anyone know what it is?

it should list it in the closing credits, i think they are forced to credit all music in the movie.

I've tried for years to figure out what it is and can't! If you do, post it here.

The Thieving Magpie by Rossini. This is also in the movie A Clockwork Orange.

If I remeber correctly it was a Ziggy Marley song. There as some great reggae songs in this movie.

It was "Give A Little Love" by Ziggy Marley and The Melody Makers.

There was actually a soundtrack for MEN AT WORK at the time. It was one of the very first CDs I ever had. Probably long out-of-print by now, though. Glad I still have it.
