I was 10 when it came out in 86. Watched it with and without my dad many times. I inherited his tape collection. Includes the Top Gun soundtrack. This is the love theme from the movie.
That is in my top 5 greatest songs of all time. In 40 years from now, when all the music hits of recent years will be long gone, songs like these will remain.
The 80's was a period when the music mattered as much as the plot in movies, and we had some great soundtracks. Footloose, Top Gun, Valley Girl, Breakfast Club, Beverly Hills Cop, To Live And Die In L. A., Streets of Fire, Pretty In Pink, Weird Science, Beat Street, Flashdance, PURPLE RAIN ☔
I went to an 80s music festival around the year 2000. This band was the last act to play. We couldn't believe our ears. It is so much more beautiful live than one can ever imagine, if one has only heard the studio recording. I didn't even like the song until I heard it performed live.
You might like VH1's Bands Reunited-Berlin. The story is about getting them back together for a one night performance, and No More Words is one of the songs they do.
I love love love this song ❤️❤️❤️ Born 83 I watched Top Gun a million times 🙈 I remember one morning, my mom was in the kitchen preparing breakfast while having the radio on (as always 😅👍🏻), then THIS song came and because she knew I loved it, she turned up the volume... that was my quickest jump out of bed ever to run over and hear it 🤩 Good memories ❤️
Kenny Loggins - “Danger Zone” Cheap Trick - “Mighty Wings” The Righteous Brothers - “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling” Along with “Take My Breath Away”, these songs MADE the Top Gun soundtrack! 👌🏻
Terri Nunn is one of the best belters of the 80's, super underrated. Her voice is unmatched. Outside of this smash hit, they didn't seem to have much success in the US. "The Metro" and "No More Words" are probably their only other very well known songs.
Jump on this one for JayveeTV Reacts, Jay! "Top Gun" is a perfect reaction movie! Testosterone, adrenaline, love, tears, music, sex, & a couple of some of the most memorable lines in any film.
Yeah, you need to watch the movie. And be sure to stick around while the credit roll do you can hear the great Cheap Trick nail it hard singing Mighty Wings.
Saw Terri up close when she did her walk through the audience at a concert back in '84 at the Greek Theatre. She was stunningly beautiful and that voice. One of my early teenage crushes. her hair was killer too. loved it.
No it's not :-) I rewatched it last year with my husband (we saw it only once back in the day), and we were shocked by how awful it was. There's hardly a story, the chemistry between the lead characters is terrible, their romance is quite unbelievable. The only thing that's great about the movie, is the flying scenes. Those were really good. So if you're really into fighter jet porn, it's a good movie. If you want to watch it, because it is considered a classic, you should. But if you want a good story, you can skip Top Gun. Or at least be prepared to be underwhelmed, because we really were. In our memories it was a great movie, but in real life it was shockingly bad.
I just watched it for the first time a month or so ago and could not get into it and I agree with all you said - I didn’t see chemistry at all and the story was lacking. I just decided to watch because I love the 80s but this film didn’t deliver
For the uninitiated, this song is the daughter of the genius of Giorgio Moroder (the man behind Donna Summer). It won the Academy Award for best original song (and also the Golden Globe) in 1987. The director of the film decided to shoot the love scene between Cruise and McGillis only after hearing this song. In fact, it was shot when the shooting of the film had already finished. The scene is backlit because in the meantime McGillis had dyed her hair. About Moroder I recommend "From here to eternity". Or "Chase" from the soundtrack of Midnight Express". (Other Academy Award winner)
@@richardbullen8051 There was no reason to turn down this opportunity. If someone who has already won two Oscars, one who has led Donna Summer to success and collaborated with several already famous groups chooses you to play one of his songs (which wins another Oscar) it is not nice to go around saying that you only hate it because it's not yours. He also collaborated with Blondie (Call me), also here in a different musical genre from theirs. There was no problem.
Oooo I love Berlin. Terri Nunn rocks! The Metro is my favorite song. Actually, the whole Pleasure Victim album is good. 💕 And of course, Top Gun also rocks🤓
Wait, there's someone alive who hasn't seen Top Gun? How is that possible? The Top Gun soundtrack is amazing. Please tell me you have seen Back to the Future at least.
He reacted to back to the future on this channel... I watched top gun but I couldn’t get into it maybe I wasn’t paying much attention- I just watched it a month or so ago
If you haven't already Jay, please watch Top gun! (and Top gun 2 2021 when it's finally released) and this will give you more appreciation of the song! As a 46 year old man, I was watching this and hoping that you would experience the same as I did when I first heard the song! Part of me accepted that as you were born in a different era, that you wouldn't 'get it' however after watching your response, I am pleased that you do actually do appreciate and understand the weight of this anthem which perpetuated the youth of the 80's into so many different way that I cannot begin to describe. You are literally decades ahead musically than most, and I appreciate, recognise and enjoy that :)
Such a good song. I watched this movie for the first time in 30 years a few months ago. I forgot how good it was. You totally have to see it. I can't wait until they release the next one.
Terri Nunn does an awesome job singing in this song and in the early 90s she was singing with the Sisters of Mercy on the song “under the gun” that was just so awesome !
The band (or at least all but the singer) hated this song because it was not written by them. But its an 80s classic. Check out Suzanne Vega's Luka for another great song from that time.
Sam Brown "Stop" - it's a must have 😊 And songs from James Bond movies: *Gladys Knight - License To Kill *Sheryl Crow - Tomorrow Never Dies *Tina Turner - Goldeneye *Garbage - The World Is Not Enough *Sheena Easton - For Your Eyes Only
Yeah! I'm glad you put Jennifer Rush and The Power Of Love together as many people don't even know that it's Jennifer Rush song, not Celine Dion's. In my opinion Jennifer sings it the best.
Back to the 80's we go, Jay . . . and as you have found Berlin - how about a nice bit of T'Pau with another female lead singer, Carol Decker . . . ? "China In Your Hand" - "Heart & Soul" - "Valentine"???? Enjoy . . .
Bro you put your hand on your heart at the end bit !! That stuff warms. If a woman sang that to me from the heart I would simply melt. .....take my brea... 🎶
Oh, heck yeah. I love this tune. You should most definitely peep Top Gun. It is an 80's masterpiece of a classic. I first saw it at a drive-in in San Diego with my Dad and my Uncle. It's so great because they actually used real footage of fighter jets to film it, and that was Tom before he went crazy:P The cast was stellar, the music was fantastic, the action was amazing, and the story was pretty good, too.
I finally got to dance with a woman to this song in 2009. I had it set up already in my 400-disc CD changer, and when she was at my house, I just started it out of nowhere & asked if I could have this dance. Now the song is even more memorable to me. :)
I've always adored this song. One of the first mainstream romance songs I ever heard growing up in the eighties as a church girl who mostly only heard Christian and fifties and sixties music with my mum during the week, and some seventies songs like Dr Hook and Daddy Cool through visits to my dad on weekends Hehehehe

Yes, yes, yes it is an 80s song! Love, love, love this song! Those are the clips from the movie TOP GUN! Oh you must see it when you have a chance!!!! Excellent soundtrack too! Peace! ✌🏼☮
Terri Nunn has a great voice. Berlin had some great new wave and pop hits in the 80s. Check out "When We Make Love", "No More Words", or especially "The Metro".
![Berlin - Take My Breath Away [Top Gun 1986] (Movie Soundtrack Month) *DayOne Reacts*](/img/1.gif)
This song is so beautiful. Absolutely timeless.
This song gives me goosebumps and so many memories when I was sixteen...
I was 10 when it came out in 86. Watched it with and without my dad many times. I inherited his tape collection. Includes the Top Gun soundtrack. This is the love theme from the movie.
One of the most beautiful songs I've had the privilege of hearing🥰☺
That guitar is so distinctive and recognisable. Can't mistake it for anything else. Really makes the song.
"Voices Carry" - Til Tuesday is the band. Aimee Mann is the singer. Another great 80s singer.
Also What about love...
@@chiccachannel Heart ❤️
Hush hush.
Amazing video too!
Aimee Mann is also featured in the Rush song "Time Stand Still."
Even when this song was brand new it made me feel nostalgic, like an old memory all the way from ten seconds ago.
The whole Top Gun soundtrack is great. Danger Zone is another one.
Back when Kenny Loggins was a badass singer.
Yesssss
Yesss
Yes! I second this "Danger Zone" recommendation! Love some Kenny Loggins. 😊
You've Lost That Loving Feeling by the Righteous Brothers. Second song that made the soundtrack for me.
That is in my top 5 greatest songs of all time.
In 40 years from now, when all the music hits of recent years will be long gone, songs like these will remain.
Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins was the main theme for Top Gun!!!!!!!!!!
And one of the best theme songs ever for a movie.
The 80's was a period when the music mattered as much as the plot in movies, and we had some great soundtracks.
Footloose, Top Gun, Valley Girl, Breakfast Club, Beverly Hills Cop, To Live And Die In L. A., Streets of Fire, Pretty In Pink, Weird Science, Beat Street, Flashdance, PURPLE RAIN ☔

This song always gives me chills. And I agree that instrumental alone is amazing and super catchy.
Top Gun is a classic! Top Gun : Maverick is the long awaited sequel
Long awaited is right! We've waited 30 years to wait 3 more.
@@TheRedman790 supposed to be our summer 2020. Then xmas 2020...now??
A sequel where Maverick bends his knee to China by removing the Taiwan and Japan flags off his coat lol.
Yes!
i will be skipping Maverick on the count of them being arseholes and not getting Kelly back
“No More Words” from Berlin is great. Their music video was fun too.

@@dawggirl Yes, please!
My friend had this on vinyl, we would have parties and play this like a dozen times. Drunk teenagers singing and crying to this song, great times.
😂
Top Gun is an iconic 80’s movie. The soundtrack is awesome!! “...the uhh plaque for the alternates is down in the ladies room” 🤣🤣
"I feel the need... the need for speed!!"
I love love love this song ❤️❤️❤️

Top Gun is iconic and this song is too.
Kenny Loggins - “Danger Zone”
Cheap Trick - “Mighty Wings”
The Righteous Brothers - “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling”
Along with “Take My Breath Away”, these songs MADE the Top Gun soundtrack! 👌🏻
He did that Righteous Brothers one a while ago
Yet still, none of those hold a candle to Harold Faltermeyer's Top Gun Anthem. :)
Yeah, imo this movie has got one of the best Soundtrack albums back in the day
@@weepingscorpion8739 Memories is my favourite

Great track and still a great movie. “No more words” by Berlin, another great track by them.
Fun fact: Teri Nunn auditioned to play Princess Leia in Star Wars.

That quote is Meg Ryan's character ("Take me to bed..."). She played Goose's wife.
It was his wife (Meg Ryan). Anyways loved how it was executed in the movie. Goose was my favorite character in that movie.

That's a great one.

Yep, this is what we were 'spoilt' with back in the day ❤❤❤. That was the movie Top Gun.
I grew up listening to this song! Terri Nunn's voice is perfection 💖

Always reminds me of phoenix nights, this song. "walking on the moon" Classic!
Signature 80s band! Highly recommend 'The Metro' by them. It's not a love song and has that classic new wave 80s cadence and sound.
I have watched this movie well over 100 times.
I love that movie and this song. Never gets old.
Makes my fave songs list. Beautiful stuff!
Great Song
Greetings from Berlin 🖤
Bro you put your hand on your heart at the end bit !! That stuff warms. If a woman sang that to me from the heart I would simply melt. .....take my brea... 🎶
Timeless beautiful song 💗. Berlin was underrated here in U.S
This song was a huuuuuuuuuge hit back in the day. Funny I had never realized the band Berlin did this. On the Metro is another gem from them.
Om my i haven't heard this in years. I loved it back in the day.
Her hair was so amazing!
Oh, heck yeah. I love this tune. You should most definitely peep Top Gun. It is an 80's masterpiece of a classic. I first saw it at a drive-in in San Diego with my Dad and my Uncle. It's so great because they actually used real footage of fighter jets to film it, and that was Tom before he went crazy:P The cast was stellar, the music was fantastic, the action was amazing, and the story was pretty good, too.
The most beautiful and touching love song of all time.
This is a great tune to crank up.
Really good vocals.

At last one of my favourite songs got a reaction from you. I’m glad you enjoyed listening to this.
Amazing song. I agree the music is fine, continues to take us on the entire journey of the song.
