When this was done in the 80s it really made you want to see the movie!I loved how they would throw in clips from the movie as the video was playing.My favorite are "Shakedown" by Bob Seger from Beverly Hills Cop 2."Maniac" by Michael Sembella from Flashdance."Sweet Freedom" by Michael McDonald from Running Scared. ;)

   Being a Mad Max fan nearly from the beginning, I'll submit "We Don't Need Another Hero" - Tina Turner from "Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome".

"Get Into The Groove" by Madonna  :D

&

"Who's That Girl?" also by Madonna  ;D

Into the groove is the best from ALL time!!!

"Get into the Groove" probably is the best, although I always liked "Power of Love" by Huey Lewis from Back to the Future.

Ok, I just saw "Glory of Love" from Karate Kid II....still love it.

"City of Crime" from Dragnet, sung by Dan Akroyd and Tom Hanks. It was probably my favorite rap song ever. :)

Simple Minds "Don't You (Forget About Me)"
(with the tv sets with clips from "The Breakfast Club")


LL Cool J "Going Back To Cali" (from "Less Than Zero")


Bobby Brown "On Our Own" (from "Ghostbusters II")

Madonna "Into The Groove" (from "Desperately Seeking Susan")

"A View to a Kill" from A View to a Kill
"The Goonies 'R' Good Enough" from The Goonies
"Into the Groove" from Desperately Seeking Susan
"Don't You Forget About Me" from The Breakfast Club
"Ghostbusters" from Ghostbusters

I know it's from a TV show, but I always enjoyed the video for Jan Hammer's Miami Vice Theme.

I loved the way they tried to "incorporate" him in the action.

Great video, lots of TVs and shots from the movie.  Even still when I catch this video, it makes me want to watch the movie.

Axel F by Harold Faltermeyer from Beverly Hills Cop.  Its probably one of the coolest synth songs from the 80s IMO.  They superimposed Harold running through BHC scenes wearing a trenchcoat and a fedora.

Sammy Hagar - Winner Takes It All, from Over The Top.

Although I probably haven't seen this video in almost 15 years, it's one of my most favorite soundtrack songs & videos. If anyone has a vcd (or better) file of this please let me know. The only copy of it I've been able to find was a digimon anime version (sucks).  

Wildblue - Fire with Fire from the movie with the same name

Starship-Nothing's gonna stop us now from the movie "Mannequin"
Eric Clapton-The way that you use it
from the Color of Money
The Bangles-Hazy Shade of Winter from "Less Than Zero".
and my favorite:
Madonna-Live to Tell from At Close Range.  The song just fit the mood of the movie so perfectly.

How could everyone forget the classic, Purple Rain?
Let's go crazy and When Doves Cry are totally 80's
