Asking the Musical Question...

[captain_slinky]

Ineed lots and lots of music that sounds like this:

That one is a parody-type comical song that al the sarcastic kids are so fond of these days on their Comput-o-nets, but I want the music that it's making fun of! Unfortunately, I can't think of a single song title for these songs. They're all just "That 80's Movie Montage Music", ya know?

Can anybody help me out here? Give me actual song titles and/or even better would be links to said songs so I can download and have them?

"Push it to the Limit" is the theme from Scarface.

This specific song is Scarface (Push it to the Limit) from the movie, well, Scarface. Also made famous by the YTMND Time Traveler. This song is a long running joke with me and a group of my old work buddies, who always greet each other with LIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!

Another good montage song is You're the Best (Around) from Karate Kid.

Thanks for the Karate Kid clip, now I'm reminded of the crush I had on Elisabeth Shue in that movie when I was a kid.

Also -- your icon is making me feel uncomfortable.

Oh man, totally. I'd have an adventure in babysitting anytime with her!

And now that I think about it, I happen to have Paul Engemann - Scarface (Push it to the Limit).mp3 on my shell account for just such an emergency.

Awesome, thanks! Now all i need is 24 to 27 more songs exactly like this to fill-up a compilation cd :)

I just got an MP3 of "Fight to Survive" from Bloodsport; would you like me to send it to you?

Well it's one video I actually sat all the way through. :p

[captain-slinky.livejournal.com]

So... you took it to The Limit?

[das-prompt.livejournal.com]

But no further.

[martiniandrossi.livejournal.com]

Just so you know, this is the first video I've seen today, so I'm off to a good start so far :P

You also need "you're the best around"

and "don't stop believing"

ooh, and what's that one from Rocky?

[captain-slinky.livejournal.com]

"Eye of the Tiger"! OF COURSE! Thanks!

I also think I might need "We Need A Hero" from the Footloose soundtrack.

I also thought of a few more:
Greatest American Hero theme
Streetlight people (or anything by Journey)
Neal also suggested anything off the "footloose" soundtrack
