Posted by Devolution (Member # 1731) on :
Devolution here,
Serious question: Is soundtrack based on the film or the music on the album?
If it's the film, Sixteen Candles, no contest.
Songs on the album?
Hmmmm, Some kind of wonderful, or Vision Quest, or maybe even FM, even though that isn't an 80's movie.

Devo, agree with SKOW, but I'd have to place Streets Of Fire ahead of Sixteen Candles - not by much, but definately a superior score.
Posted by thebazman (Member # 1741) on :
not much in the way of score music, but the soundtrack to Adventures In Babysitting is excellent

devo, you read my mind. i thought of last american virgin right after i posted. i have been trying to get my hands on it for the tommy tutone song, "teen angel eyes."
Posted by Sam Hain (Member # 1552) on :
agree with a few that have been posted already, but how could you leave off "Heavy Metal" or "Fast Times at Ridgemont High"
Been a long time since I've seen "Last American Virgin" refresh my memory on what songs are on the soundtrack.

have to admit The Breakfast Club has really great music
Posted by vashti1999 (Member # 1837) on :
Well, Purple Rain is a given, being a Prince fan. After that, I pretty much liked every 80s soundtrack I bought.
Flashdance Footloose Beverly Hills Cop 1 & 2 Krush Groove Dirty Dancing School Daze Who's That Girl Salsa La Bamba
Posted by djmaster88278 (Member # 1917) on :
footloose or blues brothers, even ghostbusters is very good.

Massiveretaliation,
I agree Teen Wolf has some good music really fits well with whats going on at the time

Blade runner has a pucka sound track and one of the best soundtracks comes from Fire walk with me (twin peaks secret diarys of laura palmer).
Posted by paulshrimpton (Member # 1022) on :
Sorry, just had to check the thread title again - thought it said WORST soundtrack cos do my eyes deceive me, or did someone mention Ladyhawke?
Perfect example of a greaty movie being spoiled by the trashiest, most inappropriate soundtrack ever. Hmm, movie about medieval french swordplay and romance - I know, lets hit it with a seventies pasticshe MOR synth-heavy soundtrack!
Genius - NOT!

Devolution here,
Hey paul, I think you have been hanging out with me too much. Oh yeah, I totally agree that LadyHawke blows. Movie, soundtrack, the sword going through seven things at the end? It all adds up to bad. Someone mentioned Rad, good choice. I also like the music in Morgan Stewarts coming home. But that is me, and I am not normal.

I would have to say some of my favorite songs come from:
Footloose Night of the Comet Valley Girl Two of a Kind Dirty Dancing The Legend of Billie Jean Fire with Fire
I really wish that a Night of the Comet CD was available, it has a lot of good songs on it.

I have it on CD, transferred it from my LP and it sounds excellent, just a shame I found out afterwards I don't much care for the songs themselves
