This is DJ Holly with a great top music list. TOP 80’s SONGS FROM MOVIE SOUNDTRACKS!
As a big fan of 80’s movies some songs really just make me think of the film they came from as well as being great songs. I put together my top favorite 80’s movie songs. This could be a longer list but I think these are the best that I know of. Enjoy! Follow the links to the youtube for those who don’t know what the song is. And also a link to the song in the movie! I will see you all next week for another great Top 10 80’s list. Stay tuned to listen to my radio show on Fridays Retro 80’s Hits 9-11am on KKSM AM 1320
