And for a music video that features a bomb detonator housed in a Walkman. Bravo. @Greg- The Top Gun soundtrack also features Loverboy, Blondie and Miami Sound Machine. Does it get more 80's than that? It's a goldmine. Bonus points to King Tut for citing a movie with Christopher Walken.

Iron Eagle...Hell yes. And I second "View To A Kill" also. Being from Rockford, Illinois, I'm more partial to Cheap Trick's "Mighty Wings" on the "Top Gun" Soundtrack. Honorable mentions? "In Your Eyes" – Peter Gabriel, from "Say Anything" "Don't You (Forget About Me)" – Simple Minds from "The Breakfast Club" "Weird Science" – Oingo Boingo from "Weird Science" Sweet FT5.
