In this edition of Set List Reader's Choice, your top favorite is:
Backtrack - The answer was "The Heat Is On" by Glenn Frey. The lyric was "the shadows high on the darker side."
"The Heat Is On" is an '80s classic and perfect for the film. Yet there are other songs on the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack that are just as defining for the film and the decade. Consider -
"Neutron Dance" - The Pointer Sisters
"Stir It Up" - Patti LaBelle
"Axel F" - Harold Faltermeyer
Nick Rhodes added a layer to music through synthesizers that adjusted songs in a way not necessarily thought of. The result - Debut to present.
"Axel F" did the same with perfectly noted electronics in perfectly timed scenes. This song went on to earn Silver certification in the UK with 250,000 in sales. (Wikipedia)
And there you have it - your top favorite for the week. Have a great Sunday!
