(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay - Otis Redding
Playing With The Boys (12" Version, lol)

bow bow bow bow bowwwww... bow bow bowwwww... bow bow bowwww...

btw the answer is Playing With The Boys

OK this is weird. 2 of my workmates have been singing Danger Zone for the last hour in the office. And there is no way they know anything about ILX.

... I hope :/

do you work in the Danger Zone?

I feel like I work in a bad film sometimes if that helps.

I had a cashier in the drug store today named Berlin. After the group.

She should be thankful she didn't get named Kajagoogoo, I suppose.

this is the soundtrack of my childhood. along with beverly hills cop, ghostbusters, and cocktail. so many family car trips spent listening to this.

Why did I think that "Meet Me Halfway" was in this movie? Huh. Anyway, Berlin.

I don't remember the Cheap Trick or Teena Marie songs, but "Hot Summer Nights" isn't bad at all.

"Take My Breath Away", because I loved the fucking scene. I used to play this cassette (which had fewer songs, no Jerry Lee or Righteous Bros) when playing the Top Gun video game on NES back in the day: serious multimedia action.

"Mighty Wings"

Dude I love the Top Gun theme. It's even better on the 8 bit Nintendo cartridge version.

Crap, I think I meant "Through the Fire"

anyone voting for anything other than "you've lost that lovin' feeling" is kidding themselves. probably should have been left off the poll too.

God, I loathe the Righteous Brothers.

man i could NEVER land the plane in the NES game.

I vote for what's playing when they chase Jester below the hard deck.

man i could NEVER land the plane in the NES game.
Refueling was no picnic, either.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

"Take My Breath Away", because I loved the fucking scene.

I remember trying to patternt my first kiss of the kiss in this scene. The girl was laughing and was all like "uh real people don't kiss like that!" I was like, "Well they should!"

Voted Top Gun theme

"Take My Breath Away", because I loved the fucking scene.

and whatever was playing when they were playing volleyball at the beach without their shirts. I must have watched that scene 20 times while masturbating! Makes me horny still just thinking about it.

voted danger zone tho <wink>.

was that bit in the bar on the soundtrack? god 80s soundtrax were rub. not the tunes but the way they put them together. FERRIS BUELLER didnt even HAVE one! talk about a movie SCREAMING out for a dialogue/songs soundtrack album jeeez.

WHEN THE BULLET HITS THE BONE

take my breath away hands down!

That synth-bass in Take my Breath Away is the best synth-bass ever.

I always kinda dug "Take My Breath Away", and when I found out later that Giorgio Moroder co-wrote it, I loved it even more.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

That synth-bass in Take my Breath Away is the best synth-bass ever.

gross!

this shit def adds to the movie's gay porn flava

How the hell did Danger Zone lose? That song is LEGENDARY

when i was in high school, this girl who was a daughter of one of the teachers danced to that song during a talent show. for any number of reasons that I won't go into here now, it was a total o_O moment.

We never had talent shows, but the girls all got to put on a pageant every year.

o_O moments:

- Girl coming out with miniature trampoline and jumping to Pointer Sisters' "Jump" for three minutes.
- Every year, a new girl doing the same old routine to "Little Miss Riding Hood" by Sam the Sham.
- Insane clogging routines to "If the South Would've Won" by Hank Williams Jr.

- Girl coming out with miniature trampoline and jumping to Pointer Sisters' "Jump" for three minutes.

haha, that's almost unspeakably awesome.

I bought this soundtrack on tape. I was nine years old at the time and it was kind of a big deal to go buy something on my own. Anyways, HOW DID DANGER ZONE NOT WIN THIS?

should be using John Anderson's "Jump"

i didn't see this, but wouldn't have been able to decide between 'top gun anthem' and 'danger zone'.

"Danger Zone" came up on shuffle today and it was pretty fucking awesome, esp. by contrast with the song before, Dino's "Ooh Child".
