If You Need A Little 'Top Gun' In Your Life

Steven Stevens was one of the many musicians that participated in the "Rock for Responders" concert last month at the USS Iowa battleship museum in San Pedro, Calif.

I happened along this video last night while scrolling for something else completely. I stopped and watched the entire clip and just appreciated the song for what it is: a great movie theme. Remember, Stevens did win a Grammy for best instrumental pop performance of the song back at the 1987 awards show.

One Iconic Movie Theme

Oh it's Saturday again. Have you seen Top Gun: Maverick yet? If not, go to the theatre immediately. I saw it last weekend and I swear, it is better than the original.

The Top Gun theme is one of the best, most iconic pieces of movie music ever. It proves you don't need lyrics to have a memorable song! Steve Stevens is a guitar badass here. Such a joy to hear again on those massive movie theater speakers.

The Top Gun theme is so important to my little social circle that Heather even got married (the second time) to it! When I was a teen, Paramount owned Kings Island amusement park and there was a ride named "Top Gun" and the music played everywhere in the park. It's the kind of song that instantly brings a smile to your face.
