Album Notes & Community Reviews

The soundtrack to Ivan Reitman's film pairs eight pop songs with two cues from Elmer Bernstein's score across ten tracks, including performances by Thompson Twins, Air Supply and Laura Branigan. Ray Parker Jr.'s title theme reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100, the record's defining chart fact, and earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song.
