There's so many great soundtracks from the 80s on the show today Tony went through some of his favourites.
This is a great one...
It charted twice in America, firstly in 1961 when it was originally released and again in 1986 when it was used for the theme song in the film ‘Stand By Me’ starring Will Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman and Kiefer Sutherland.
And what about this..
Used Ferris Buellers Day Off - Oh Yeah by Yello. Possibly the most 80s song of all time!
Tony revealed that he had the exact same jacket as Eddie Murphy in Beverly Hills Cop and he wore it with pride..
The title of course refers to Eddie Murphy’s characters name Axel Foley and that was number 1 in Ireland
Top Gun had a couple of big hits with ‘Take My Breath Away’ by Berlin and ‘Dangerzone by Kenny Loggins
"I feel the need....the need for speed!"
We couldn't forget Ghostbusters by Ray Parker Jr – that was nominated for an Oscar and went to number 1 in America
And possibly one of the greatest films of the 80s Back to the Future. It featured Huey Lewis and the News with The Power of Love which gave the band their first number 1 in America. It actually features in all 3 Back to the Future films but most famously at the start of the first where Marty McFly skateboards to school...
