Top Gun
Top Gun might be one of the best sound tracks ever. Although you
might not want to admit it. I think everyone has caught
themselves hearing a song from the movie and instantly being able to
place the scene in the movie it is from. For instance "Danger
Zone" and you see Maverick (Tom Cruise) trying to race a jet on his
motorcycle. How about "You've Lost the Love and Feeling"
yeah see you know what I am talking about. Maverick signing to Charlie
(Kelly McGillis) and then he follows her into the ladies room and
offers to save her from making a mistake with the old man she was with.
(I don't think that is on the sound track however.)
A close second would have to be Rocky. If you ever played sports
in high school at one point you had a tape you made up that had "Eye of
a Tiger" on it and you know who you are! I think my tape wore out from
me rewinding it so many times to hear the first 45 seconds of that
song.
So what other movies have sounds tracks like this that mean something to someone.

Re: Top Gun
I think Wayne's World would need to be on this list. The movie single handedly put Bohemian Rhapsody back on top of the pop charts. I think Chariot's of Fire would also be a classic as well, but it had a different impact on society. Pretty in Pink has a classic 80's lineup and who will ever forget When Cusack has the stereo over his head in Say Anything.

Re: Top Gun
One more that I can't leave off is This is Spinal Tap. While the soundtrack never seems to get a lot of radio play, it's perhaps the funniest soundtrack ever created.

Sex farm.
Funny.
VERY funny.
But not as funny as the "Sure Flow" song on "A Mighty Wind"

Re: Top Gun
How can a soundtrack featuring Kenny Loggins be atrocious?

Re: Top Gun
Ok, so no one has brought up FlashDance yet. If we are talking about 80's soundtracks, that has to be one of the all time best. I think I broke the cassette because I listened to it so many times.
