    Wow, again some really great match-ups

    Harry Nilsson - Everybody's Talkin' (Midnight Cowboy)
    John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John - Summer Nights (Grease) Vs Irene Cara - Flashdance... What a Feeling (Flashdance) -Will abstain this one, like both of them.
    Harold Faltermeyer - Axle F (Beverly Hills Cop) - love my 80s
    Coolio - Gangster's Paradise (Dangerous Minds) - another one that really embodies the film nicely

    I did, thats what delayed me voting...thats what I meant..I like the song but it didnt flow with the scene editing.. yes the emotional context worked for what was happening on screen. Each to their own, roll on more better bob!
