    Mannequin - this was such a tough decision. GP is a brilliant song that will never date imo, but when I was a nipper I was mesmerised by the mannequin video. & have always had a soft fuzzy feeling when I hear that song.
    Judging by the year of the song too, I am now claiming this as my earliest childhood memory!

    Back to the future - because its a movie I'd watch til the day I leave this world

    Ghostbuster - just because its a fun song:pac:

    The Chain - again, as I've said previously, I love this song & any cover I've heard of the song too

    (If ever I've to choose between Mannequin & The Chain, ooh i'll have very sweaty paws!)

    Purple Rain - just like the song

    Bruce - is getting my vote because he's a bit of a ride;)

    Kiss from a Rose - one of the most beautiful songs made

    Born Slippy - Tune!

    Paint it Black - simply just a good road trip song

    Stand by Me - a nice song

    Fortunate Son - I'm voting for this song over Em because I don't know the song but I like it!!

    Footloose - another fun song

    Dirty Dancing - just prefare it over the other song

    Axel Foley - because I love Eddie Murphy movies

    Simon & Garfunkel - I like this song & the rocky song too, but I'm choosing S&G because I wouldn't in a million years sit down & watch a rocky movie. Not even if Bruce asked me!

    Tiny Dancer - again another tough decision because I love a bit of Duran Duran. But I really like this song so I'm gonna vote for Elton

    Fleetwood Mac - The Chain (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2)

    Kenny Loggins - Footloose (Footloose)

    Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now (Mannequin)

    - All handy enough choices.

    Eye of The Tiger vs Born Slippy is a lot tougher. Ultimate 80s vs Ultimate 90s. I think Eye of the Tiger just about beats out Underworld. It’s known the minute you hear it.

    Survivor- Eye of the Tiger

    Anyone else find it a bit weird voting for another song because it fits the scene/film better than the one you might prefer listening too?

    That's what I am doing too, cos if it's more recognizable from the film, then wouldn't it be considered the best 'movie song'?
    I wouldn't go youtubing some I've been voting for, just to take a listen though.

    Just trying to be fair to the thread title or it might just as well be named vote for your favorite song or film or artist. Yes anyone can vote anyway they want to... I am just trying to respect the work that goes into deciding on a theme and organising the thread. That is my choice, but each to their own :)
