80s Movie Soundtracks – Turn It Up!

This week on Old Mates New Laughs, we're heading back to the 1980s to celebrate the movie soundtracks that became just as memorable as the films themselves. From Eye of the Tiger and Danger Zone to The Power of Love, Footloose and Don't You (Forget About Me), we're taking a trip down memory lane and remembering the songs that defined our childhood.

We're discussing our favourite '80s soundtracks, the best original songs, our first soundtrack memories, the most iconic music moments, the ultimate songs to blast in the car and, of course, the cheesiest songs the decade had to offer. We'll also be digging into some lesser-known soundtrack gems and asking whether some of the big hitters are actually a little overrated!

And then comes the big question... was the 1980s the greatest decade ever for movie soundtracks? Expect plenty of nostalgia, plenty of music, a few controversial choices and, inevitably, a Rocky montage or two! 🎧
