Just before EMINEM surprised everyone with his random performance at the Oscars, they showed a montage of how important songs have been to movies - and some of the best were from the '80s.
Perhaps inspired by that, ScreenRant.com has put together a list of the 10 best movie theme songs from the '80s. Here they are:
1. Prince, "Purple Rain", 1984 . . . from "Purple Rain"
2. Ray Parker Jr., "Ghostbusters", 1984 . . . from "Ghostbusters"
3. Kenny Loggins, "Danger Zone", 1986 . . . from "Top Gun"
4. Survivor, "Eye of the Tiger", 1982 . . . from "Rocky 3"
5. David Bowie, "Underground", 1986 . . . from "Labyrinth"
6. Harold Faltermeyer, "Axel F", 1984 . . . the electronic instrumental theme from "Beverly Hills Cop"
7. Prince, "Batdance", 1989 . . . from "Batman"
8. Duran Duran, "A View to Kill", 1985 . . . from the James Bond movie "A View to Kill"
9. Limahl, "The Neverending Story", 1984 . . . from "The Neverending Story"
10. Huey Lewis and the News, "The Power of Love", 1985 . . . from "Back to the Future"
It's kind of brutal that they put Huey Lewis and the News BELOW Ray Parker Jr.'s "Ghostbusters" theme . . . because that theme supposedly rips off the Huey Lewis' song "I Want a New Drug".
