Marion can be heard whistling "A British Tar" after she was done "cleaning up" aboard the Bantu Wind...The illustrated screenplay notes that Marion is whistling, but not what she is whistling.

Lonsome_Drifter said:"Anything Goes" and "The Thugee Chant"?

Those are NOT the two songs...Lonsome_Drifter said:"Anything Goes" and "The Thugee Chant"?

"Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" is as much a replica of, as it is a departure from, "Raiders of the Lost Ark." Musically, all of the familiar marches are back, tracing the heroics of ace archeologist Dr. Indiana Jones from the turbulent streets and dark alleys of 1935 Shanghai, to the sweltering jungles of uncharted India, at which point John Williams, the maestro of movie magic, and we the audience take an unexpected detour to the far side of fear and fantasy.
In this section of the adventure, all comforting themes vanish, and we become lost in the inner sanctums of The Temple of Doom with a secret voodoo cult thought extinct for one hundred years. This sinister setting offers John leagues of musical opportunity, and he makes a feast of it in one of his best film scores ever.
In attempting a "further adventure" neither John Williams, George Lucas nor I wanted to retrace our steps. This is a shiny new story with heroines, sidekicks and villains you've never before seen. And John Williams has composed new themes for each of them.
I am especially proud of John's "Short Round's Theme" and the nightmare choral chant in The Temple of Doom. These particular sections of the score could be the only music in the world effective enough to knock the hat off of Indiana Jones' head.

Despite online assertions that The Imperial March is heard at Donovan's Home, it is in fact the same piano rendition of Just A Gigolo which is heard aboard the Zeppelin.Stoo said:Someone else can have a go at the 1/2 Extra Credit.
