Songs From The Movies

In the late 80's early 90's it seemed like almost every movie had a huge hit song. I'm not sure if the song was hit before or after the movie but I thought I would post a few of my favourite songs that were included in some of the biggest movies of the time.

First up is Starship - Nothing is Gonna Stop us Now

This song is from the classic Mannequin. In case you haven't seen it Kim Cattrell stars as a Mannequin that comes to life.



How 'bout a little St. Elmo's Fire.
Coincidentally enough staring Andrew McCarthy from Mannequin.



And to end with Electric Dreams.

The song is Together In Electric Dreams.

I never saw this movie in theater, but I wanted to. I still remember when I finally got to see it for the first time. It was way back in the spring of 1990 my brother and my Grandparents were on a trip to England to see our relatives. We took a weekend to go to Blackpool where my grandmother spend some time as a child. Electric Dreams was playing on the late show. I think my brother was less than impressed to have to watch it.

Here's the video



In case your interested here's the movie trailer.
