Ray Charles

[Spartacus84]

Just watching the Ray Charles film with Jamie Foxx in it.

Did he sing the songs in it or are they voice-overs??

I believe he is mainly miming to the original Ray Charles tracks in the film although he can sing and play for real and do a pretty good impersonation. I saw the film a while ago but if I remember there may have been a couple of moments of live singing by Jamie in the film.

He played the piano in all the scenes and is credited with singing the following songs:

• "Get Your Kicks On Route 66"


• "Straighten Up and Fly Right"


• "I Got a Woman"


• "Mary Ann"


• "Hit the Road Jack"
