Hello,
This is the first of many of the greatest songs from 80s movies or Broadway plays. Coincidentally these are also many of the greatest songs of the 80s.
I’m going to mostly focus on the songs that were current with the movies, but I will include a few of the classics that came many years before the movies that they are in.
From “Back To The Future”: I’m glad I was able to see these guys in concerts a few years before Huey had to retire. They were fantastic. 69) Huey Lewis and the News “The Power of Love”:
