Hey Hewzy,
I did - it was cool, but with some hefty downsides - not least the one about me now being in my 40s....
Posted by pettyfan (Member # 2260) on :
The Lost Boys soundtrack--I loved "Cry Little Sister."
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
They're all great. There will NEVER be music again like there was in the 80's. Nothing nowadays can touch it.

Devolution here,
I love Sixteen Candles, it is my absolute favorite, as anything comes a distant second.
the Album doesn't do the soundtrack justice.
Others are ...
Real Genius... I'm falling and Number one are great.
Better Off Dead. Too Great.
Rocky IV - A given I know, but must be noted.
And more importantly the Last American Virgin...
Tommy Tutone and Oingo Boingo on one album... it's amazing.
The Karate Kid holds a place in my heart too.
We are DEVO
Posted by hewzy (Member # 6043) on :

Wolfman's got more than Nards...he's got great taste in soundtracks! I love the music in "Rock On" by Michael Damian. Have you ever seen the video? Meredith and The Corey's are in it!!!
Posted by Devolution (Member # 1731) on :
Devolution here,
Rock on is the worst video ever.
I have it on tape. Totally by accident, I swear. That Tape is 20 years old, geez. I think I should break it out.
I have Punk Rock Girl on there too.

I beg to differ Mr. Devo. Watching the Haim lipsync, Meredith dance in a fab 80's skirt and Feldman doing his creepy a$$ Michael Jackson imitation is a dream come true! Hahahaha...or a nightmare ! I love it!
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
John Parr - "Running Away with you" is a great song. A must have.
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
Real Life - "Send Me An Angel" was also in The Wizard. Another must have.
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
Fastway kicks butt on "Trick or Treat". There are also songs on their CD soundtrack which are not in the movie. One in particular titled "If You Could See" is my favorite.

I'm going to have to side with cindymancini on this one! The video is so bad, so horrible, it's so wonderful! I cannot come up with a better summary than the one above
Since the video for Rock On was not included on the Dream A Little Dream dvd (what were they thinking), I managed to track down a dvd that does have it. I now present some screenshots... prepare yourself!
Posted by JAYLEE (Member # 6345) on :
Im gonna forego all the obvious choices! And my taste is pretty wide, Rock, pop, new wave, hair metal.... so here are some (maybe) lesser talked about faves of mine!
RAD- John Farnham- Thunder in your heart, Breaking the ice.
NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER- Kevin Chalfant- Hold on to the vision in your eyes.
BREAKIN'- Ollie and Jerry- Ain't no stoppin' us.
IRON EAGLE- Queen- One vision
SECRET OF MY SUCCESS- Night ranger. Secret of my success.
LESS THAN ZERO- The Cult- Li'l devil. And all of Thomas Newman's awesome score, that you just can't get anywhere... I've tried for years.
FRIDAY THE 13th part 5- Pseudo Echo- His eyes.
FRIDAY THE 13th part 6- Alice Cooper- The man behind the mask, Teenage Frankenstein, Hard rock summer.
A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET part 3- Dokken- Dream warriors.
A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET part 4- Dramarama- Anything anything... love this song!
VISION QUEST- Journey- Only the young.
SHE'S HAVING A BABY- Kate Bush- This woman's work.... hey, get off my back... dudes can be sensitive too!
Well there are loads more, but this was just off the top of my head!
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
How about "Love Kills" by Vinnie Vincent Invasion from A nightmare on Elm Street 4. Awesome song.
Posted by JAYLEE (Member # 6345) on :
Don't remember that one, will have to check it out!
That reminds me... Love hates, by Marianne Faithful, from the movie TUFF TURF.... great movie, great song!
HOLY BALLS!!!! I almost forgot the greatest song ever made.... DARE by STAN BUSH from TRANSFORMERS THE MOVIE.... the real TF movie that is...!
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
Jaylee, I'll send you that song to your email.
Posted by JAYLEE (Member # 6345) on :
Thanks, got your mail, cool song.... that goes on my 80's compilation vol. 9:)
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
Your welcome. 80's hair metal and pop rock is my favorite. I probably have about 3000 songs just on my hard drive alone.

You know what song sticks out in my head from the Wizard "Road to Nowhere" my first exposure to the Talking Heads as a little one.....Which I would later appreciate to no end
Posted by Muffy Tepperman (Member # 1551) on :
OMG correction in my nerdiness it was Little Monsters.......I didn't think it seemed right......for some reason I remember the big dinosaur and that song in my mind.......I haven't seen the Wizard since 1989.....
Posted by Muffy Tepperman (Member # 1551) on :
Ok here I am again........thanks Wolfman Rock on has been in my head for the last hour hahahaha "hey kids......rock and rolllllll"
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
Another great song is Loved By The Sun by Tangerine Dream from the movie Legend. Love the vocals of Jon Anderson.
Posted by hewzy (Member # 6043) on :

I think my work here is done then
Posted by JAYLEE (Member # 6345) on :
You're right hewzy... the TRANSFORMERS soundtrack was awesome, so was the film! Another great track from that is, Van Halen's THE TOUCH, thick 80's cheese! And used to hilarious effect in BOOGIE NIGHTS, Where Dirk Digler tries to cut an album, despite his obvious vocal shortcomings.... funny stuff!

Somewhat related.
I am an addict of Buzztime Trivia which is an interactive trivia game played in bars and eating establishments across the US, UK and Canada. About a month ago one of the games was 80's movie music and I was one of the few people out of over 7000 playing network wide to get a perfect score of 15,000(15 questions; 1000 possible points per question)
I know of one other Buzztime addict that posts here.
