SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 5:01 MIN.
In addition to appearing in a minor supporting role, Grace Jones contributes this upbeat cut to the soundtrack for 1992’s Eddie Murphy & Halle Berry-headlining romantic comedy, Boomerang.
REVIEW:
Its main asset is a funky yet unremarkable melody consistent with the overblown style of the Late ‘80s-Early ‘90s. However, despite a crew of good back-up singers, Grace Jones’ own vocal effort is strangely underwhelming. Radiating a cool, almost menacing energy, her deep voice carries only a few sharp moments. The problem can be attributed to the song’s potent chorus-driven melody drowning Jones out. The middling“7 Day Weekend” is only worth checking out, if one purchases the complete soundtrack.
