Porsche. There is no substitute.
Give me Aston Martin or Maserati every time. Even an Audi R8.
And people forget
I love this song and album, and will argue with anyone that Risky Business is one of the best movies of the 80's.
it was pretty good. i hear this one and always remember "that scene." quite interesting. i can't remember if this film, TAPS, or All The Right Moves was the first film i saw cruise in back in those days...

It's certainly one of Tom Cruise's best films.

Not even close ...

na, stupid, Tangerine Dream.
Anybody else hearing Steve Reich? Music for 18 Musicians?
It's similar in the "pulsating" style rhythm, different sort of composition though.
HORRIBLE cover but the song is quite nice...
You are dead wrong about that album cover!
It might just be too much awesome for you to take in all at once... Just give it some time.
Holds up.
Porsche. Accept no substitue.
(...although i prefer lotus...)
I prefer Lotus in theory...In practice, if you follow one long enough you can make another
out of the fallen off pieces...There's something to be said for minimalism in automobile
design and construction but Chapman took it to an extreme...;-)

The music.....pure pleasure!
Absolutely. Rebbecca DeMornay gets me every time. And the movie that made Tom Cruise.

He was downsized due to the poor economy.

Other than Rain Man and maybe Jerry Maguire, this is Tom's best movie, in my opinion!!

I see some resemblance in the young Tom Cruise "Joel" character and the young Dustin Hoffman "Ben" character.
Interesting that they would be cast as brothers later in "Rain Man".

"Get off the babysitter, Joel."
There was a movie a few years ago that looked like a fun modern-day version of RB, but it fell fairly flat towards the end. RB and The Graduate had strong social commentary behind the coming-of-age humor. Movies these days can't juggle that many balls.

I think they required everyone to smoke in 80s movies.

They're still expensive cars to maintain, however. Don't pick up any of the sub-$5000 cars unless you're a mechanic, it'll probably need $10K worth of repairs.
I'll come by your dealership when I win the lottery.

Thanks for that info. I'll have to check it out! (I own some Steve Reich as well as some Philip Glass. Love it all.)
I always thought this tune was by Global Communication, from 76:14. I now realize this is the one from the movie.
nice "love" segue...
I also think I hear Beck's "Think I'm in Love" having basically the same chord progression as "Love on a Real Train" that followed...

And I agree with "Guido (Joey Pants) is easily the strongest character in the film" - which is why the movie takes its dark turn when he shows up to spoil the lighthearted fun.

I figured someone else had to have heard the distinct similarity.
know that I think about it, you're right.
*edit* It has kind of a Jean Luc Ponty sound to it....guess it's a lot of that 80's synth....
...so - amtrak's running a campaign about how well-suited their trains are for sexual intercourse?..

Agreed! And the Sorcerer soundtrack as well.
