85. Harold Faltermeyer, Axel F (1984)



I'm going to a fancy dress party tonight where the theme is films from the '80s. I am going as a Ghostbuster, obviously, but for some reason Harold Faltermeyer's theme to Beverley Hills Cop has been in my head all bloody day rather than Ray Parker Junior's for Bill Murray and his friends. Perhaps it's because I loved this track as a child, but God, doesn't it sound antique now?

There is nothing antique about 'Axel F'. How dare you?

One of these days I will put *our song* up here, Dan, and you will be very happy. (Obviously, I haven't decided what it is yet, but it will probably involve a light-show and a Frenchman with bad hair making a plinky-plonky noise.)
