science fiction song

[edit]

Sometime in the mid-1990s, I was in a Jazzercise class. My classmates and I were doing abdominal work to a science fiction song. In it, a female voice is singing something what sounded like "Ahh Ooh Star Wars". I figured it might've been related to the Star Wars franchise. What is the song, by the way?2604:2000:712C:2900:CD7D:881E:92EB:381E (talk) 02:55, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't have those words, but the only science fiction song I know that is sung by a female singer is "I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper". Check the youtube here. --Viennese Waltz 11:46, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, that one was from 1978.2604:2000:712C:2900:45BC:D7F5:A8BB:81BF (talk) 02:05, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I know that (I'm old enough to remember when it was a hit). But it's quite possible that a fitness class in the 1990s could play a song from 1978. --Viennese Waltz 08:24, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This might be totally off, but... could it be Ooh Aah... Just a Little Bit? That song was inescapable in 90s fitness classes. No mention of "Star Wars", but that might have been a mondegreen. Alternatively, Star Wars Fanpedia might help you find the song. Smurrayinchester 22:12, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, it wasn't. That was from 1991 or 1992. But the Star Wars reference you gave me had a ton of references. It was hard to find the right one.2604:2000:712C:2900:45BC:D7F5:A8BB:81BF (talk) 02:13, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can you give us a bit more information? Smurrayinchester is right that it may have been a mondegreen. --Dweller (talk) 13:29, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
