- Bernadette Peters presenting Giorgio Moroder and Tom Whitlock the Oscar® for Best Original Song for "Take My Breath Away" from "Top Gun" at the 59th Academy Awards® in 1987.
- Krátké a kreslené filmy
One of the greatest songs even played in a motion picture...
Fun fact: Tom Whitlock was actually mechanic of one the Ferraris of Moroder, and wrote the lyrics while he was driving, without a real concept on his mind, in 6 months he became from a mechanic to a Oscar winner 😅
"Take my Breath Away," and "Glory of Love," are iconic movie songs. Either one would have been fine winning.
@Danny Segelin indeed. 3 songs are now considered as iconic pop hits.
Also "somewhere out there"
@@carriechen5837 According to Emmy and Oscar winning legend Shirley MacLaine which she says
in her own words in September 1996: "Those songs surely kick some butt." And from there, every song that simply
tells a story. For example, "Magic" from "Xanadu," "I Will Always Love You" from "The Best Little Chicken House in Texas" and "Across the Borderline" from "The Border" were all distributed by
Universal-International and StudioCanal, because a trio of songs were very successful and
profitable on the Geffen Nashville label than the films themselves between 1980 and
1982, two years in a row.
@@carriechen5837 Oh, by the way,
The Oscar nominated song was really timeless.
" somewhere out there " and " glory of love " were also powerful and beautiful songs
Back when the Oscar´s still were about movies..
She presented the award beautifully and cutely ✨🌠
Giorgio Moroder is a genius , thanks to give us wonderful music!
👌
And bit italian
He won 3 Oscars.
That part!
RIP Tom Whitlock (February 20, 1954 - February 17, 2023), aged 68
You will be remembered as a legend.
We gonna miss you, Tom!
@@markelijio6012 wow i forgetten that he died
So soon too. 😭

Take my breath away all day! And Moroder deserve it!
Take My Breath Away all day! And Giorgio Moroder deserves it!
I used to think that John Williams wrote the songtrack to my childhood. But the more I'm learning about Giorgio the more I'm realizing he wrote just as many songs.
Te sorprendería el listado de temas que Moroder produjo...no por algo es uno de los máximos desarrolladores de música electronica de los 70s, responsable de gran parte del sonido de los 80s: House, Techno, Synhtpop, NRG, Freestyle, Italo, New Beat, Trance, Eurobeat etc), padre del sonido NRG & Synhtpop raíz de los 70s y pionero del EDM que inició en 1977 el cual dura hasta nuestra fecha...

Thanks, Russ, you're the best.
This was around the same time Bernadette did "Into the Woods"... her voice in Last Midnight will always give me chills.
One of my favorite Oscar-winning songs and a well-deserved win!! And I don't know if she has ever covered this song, but I think Bernadette Peters could do an amazing rendition of it!!
The day came out on TV or VHS I bought this movie take my breath away. We made our love in our mothers living room. ...
Bernadette Peters really reminds me of Salma Hayek!
Aww her voice is so cute
Glory of love is a masterpiece and should have won
Glory Of Love y Take my breath away fueron las unicas de esa ceremonia que se volvieron clasicos
Somewhere out there también.
Também torci muito por glory of love, achei injusto a vitória de take me breath a way
Mean Green Mother from outer space should have won.
This list should have been:
Take My Breath Away
Somewhere Out There
Mean Green Mother From Outer Space
Magic Dance
If You Leave
Instruments of Destruction instead of If you Leave.
The songs from those films were so much
fun to sing along with a circle of friends!
"Somewhere out There" won Grammy as "song of the year" in 1986.
One from Universal's An American Tail.
Man, 1986 had a *LOT* of great songs in movies, so it was gonna be hard to pick one!
Kind of a shame neither "Somewhere Out There" or "Mean Green Mother from Outer Space" won but hey Take My Breath Away *IS* iconic so people can agree it did deserve the win!
All music was good in the 80’s
My best favorite ding ever since 1986 first time when I heard the song i fell in love 😻
Bernadette Peters did a wonderful job announcing the nominees. People are to stupid to even read names of a card today. Love take my breath away
if you don't know that I love Bernadette, you don't know me
Man, great year for motion picture songs. Several memorable ballads.
Holy Shit, look at those songs, ALL AMAZING SONGS, WOW
@@markelijio6012 you mean, my fingers?
@@brucedickinson8993 Yes, that's the
one. Thanks, Bruce.
"Take My Breath Away" is a gorgeous song, sound-wise, but I'm not totally sure it was the best, music-lyrics-wise, compared to "Somewhere Out There". (Of course, if "Danger Zone" had been nominated instead, then I wouldn't've minded Top Gun's victory over An American Tail at all.)
BlueFox94 I think it was better than "somewhere out there"
well so it didn't not know Giorgio moroder or mail them or was involved in this.
Take My Breath Away is iconic. I still hear it played often today.
I really liked Somewhere Out There, but it is mostly forgotten now. I would actually have ranked Glory of Love ahead of Somewhere out There as well - Best Song was a really strong category in 1986.
@@williamegan6756 Somewhere Out There was never ever forgotten, it's truly revolutionary.
Terri Nunn and Berlin should have got a statue as well!!! Nobody can recreate that song again!!! 🧐😎
Fun fact Terri was the only member of Berlin who recorded the song.
@@TheSjuris Ah, so that's why it's not Berlin...
@@Songbirdstress its still Berlin technically, but thats why most of the band members hated the song.
@@TheSjuris That's not what was said in the clip.
@@Songbirdstress its whats said by the members of the band.
Top gun marverick must win this category again
Gaga winning her second oscar, manifesting!!!
@@tylergarret2 My fingers are crossed
@@manuelorozco7760 The song was Oscar nominated and actually lost.
i‘m obsessed w this song
That's quite a list! ❤️
Howard Ashman’s & Alan Menken’s first nomination for Best Original Song. This nomination was the turning point for both their careers as it would be their first transition from being song writer and music composer for just stage to being song writer and composer for film. And this would lead to them writing the songs and music for The Little Mermaid, Beauty & the Beast & Aladdin.
So odd... If you Google this song and the love scene from Top Gun now seems like all you get is hate. "embarrassing" or "awkward" sex scene, and "really cheesy" in regards to the song. I'm so glad the song gets some love in these comments at least. It's always hit the right notes with me.
Gad that was a tough win. Lots of great songs🎶🎶🎶
Masterpiece
Mean Green Mother from outer space merecía ganar
Mi nombre es Giovani Giorgio y volví a ganar otro Óscar, el hombre que en 1977 formo el sonido del futuro...
The first Oscar win for original score
which Giorgio Moroder took home for
"Midnight Express" in 1979.
jeje entendí la referencia
@@dajhancco2890 Thanks.
Was hearing it for years and today I came to know it won Oscars! Increased respect for my taste ngl!
why doesn't Berlin get one? she did the vocals on it
The award always goes to the composers of the song.
Justin Braylock only given to the writers of the song
The instrument players in Berlin didn't play the instruments?
@@alexmeyer5260 not the composer but the lyricists .. although most lyricists composes the song too in Hollywood.
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthos That's right, tell it like it is!
He looks like Kevin Costner 😆
Bernadette Peters will always be the best singer of all time. 🧡👩🏻
Take my breath away is eternal❤
What a list!...
Guys, the reason why *Bernadette Peters* said "performed by *Natalie Cole* and *James Ingram"* is because they both sang "Somewhere Out There" on the *Oscar* telecast that night. *Cole* filled in for *Linda Ronstadt,* who couldn't make it for some reason.
Lady Gaga repeating this again with Top Gun 2
YES!!!! Let's pray it's true!!
Im here cuzz LADY GAGA gonna sing the new song of TOP GUN!!! So she gonna get her second Oscars that for sure!!
To make matters worse, "To Hold My Hand" was the
Oscar nominated song from "Top Gun Maverick"
didn't win - but lost anyway.
So happy!
Funny thing is, Berlin HATED singing that song stating, "This is not us AT ALL!" I heard Terry Nunn talking about this while watching a documentary on the movie "Top Gun."
Debería haber ganado Glory of love es mucho mas complta y hermosa
Somewhere Out there great song but top Gun to win
She's beautiful Bernadette Peters
Those "academics" always hated Madonna. Sorry guys, but her amazing soundtrack song Live to Tell (from At Close Range) should have been nominated that year. Another CRIME - Laura Branigan and her fantastic song One Day from Violets Are Blue
ViolaXZ Totally true. Madonna really deserved a nod for Live to Tell & This used to be my Playground. But Madonna is so powerful that always frightened that conservative Academy and also the Recording one.
ViolaXZ Live To Tell was originally written for the score of the film Fire with Fire, so it was not eligible for an Oscar.
vesperview It was an amazing song neither nominated either. What about This used to be..."? I guess for the Erotica era which began just one month later that scares to the conservative Academy
No, Take my Breath Away is better. Even Danger Zone and Broken Wings are better than Live to Tell.
Luciano Lopes Lima no, they are not.
Glory of Love should won best original song!
Yeah! It should have been Peter Cetera receiving the Oscar! Top Gun had Tom Cruise and Val. They did not need it all!
F'eh! Mean Green Mother from Outerspace should have won!
What a lovely song from The Karate Kid Part 2.
Mean green mother debió haber ganado
Cool song
Jen Lawrence that's how you present gracefuly
Isn't Somewhere Out There originally by Linda Ronstadt and James Ingram?
you're right must be a mistake
James Horner, Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil wrote the Oscar nominated song, "Somewhere Out There"
from An American Tail for Universal and Amblin Entertainment.
@@markelijio6012 she said perfomed by " nataly cole and james ingram " but the real singers were LINDA RONSTAND and james ingram
Yes!
@@claudiov5554 Thanks!
'If Anybody Had a Heart' from About Last Night... shouldve been nominated too

'A Fine Mess from 'A Fine Mess' Music And Lyrics by by Henry Mancini and Dennis Lambert
Armed and Dangerous from Armed and Dangerous
Written by Maurice White, Martin Page and Garry Glenn
To make matters worse, those songs from these seventeen films were honored both ASCAP and
Grammy Award nominations - two years in a row (1986-1987 and 1987-1988).
Bernadette Peters is simply one of the sexiest actresses of her time, and so forgotten by today's viewers. Talk about being underrated when she looked that hot.
The first time I saw her was as Cinderellas Stepmother against Brandy
Top Gun 2 peut gagner encore une fois ! 🎼🎼✈️✈️
Well, it lost anyway.
somewhere out there...performed by Linda Ronstadt and James Ingram
If Michael Jackson's "We Are Here to Change the World" from Captain EO was released as single it wouldve had an oscar nominee for best orginal song in 1987
I understand very clearly. But the latter has received both ASCAP and Grammy Award nominations in 1988.
Nombre de la presentadora? Que mujer tan hermosa
Bebe rexha presenting oscars since the 80's
linda rondstadt and james ingram sing the song somewhere out there.
Wonderful Song!
the italian genius
.....if not for Terri Nunn and the Rock Group Berlin,....would they be on this stage
On the other hand, co-Oscar winner Tom Whitlock did a damn good job to
give thanks on his lovely behalf on Terri Nunn of Berlin for writing the theme
song "Take My Breath Away" from the hit film, "Top Gun" along with fellow
Oscar winner Giorgio Moroder. It works nicely, don't you think?
made in Italy !
Top Point positioned
👏👏👏👏👏
Best song 🗿
young/young/johnson should have been nominated for who made who from maximum overdrive
Listen to it, anyway.
It's a pretty damned good song, but give it a try, okay?
Giorgio Moroder never lost
He won three Oscars. He's one cool guy.
He never did and never will, he was an 3 time Oscar winning composer and songwriter.
Não era a cantora que ganhava o Oscar?
São os compositores da música que ganham o oscar de melhor canção original.
@@ACP2537 not the composer but the lyricists.
Rip tom whitlock!!
mean green mother should have won
Alan Menken and Howard Ashman are legends. Even though one of them died.
correct
i listened to the song that won the oscar, and i literally stood up from my chair and said: BULL CRAP!!!!! i was at a dinner and my mom just looked at me and was like: Anything wrong sweetie??
and i said:
NOOOOOO SHIT SHERLOCK!!!
You know, Take My Breath Away is a decent song, but it didn't make me jump out of my seat, dancing like a lunatic like Mean Green Mother from Outer Space did! Heck, Levi Stubbs had a terrific vocal range!
@@annafowdy Howard Ashman died of AIDS in 1992, but his friend, Alan Menken is a great survivor.
Just like the 1984 comedy flick was an financial success with Walter Matthau, Robin Williams and
Jerry Reed under the deft direction of Michael Ritchie. "The Survivors" was produced by the legendary
Ray Stark and distributed by Columbia-Delphi.
I thought Somewhere out There was preformed by Linda Ronstadt?
yes youre right ,she made a sad mistake
@@elpreciososi1735 "We Make Mistakes"
(1999) - performed by Mandy Barnett for
Sire Records, a Time Warner company.
😍😍😍😍
Só eu que falo português
The song was even in a Cricket commercial of the phone. We will all be back here when Lady Gaga wins an Oscar for Hold My Hand
@@zairnermuller4960 How was the song a flop?
@@joewhitehead3 According to veteran Grammy and Oscar nominee Janie Fricke who says it
very kindly about the success of "Top Gun 2": I think was the song a hit and of course, it was
nominated for an Academy Award for best music - original song "Hold My Hand" (Lady Gaga,
BloodPop) in 2023. But it went to "Naatu, Naatu" (M.M. Keeravani, Chandrabose) from "RRR"
instead. Like the Grammy winning country band Alabama wrote, "I just couldn't say no,
I've tried my best." I think we all did our very best too.
GIORGIO IS THE BEST..
1:18
"Hold My Hand" by Lady Gaga is coming!
Hold my hand is bad take my breath away knock ....the song sucks
The song was literally nominated for an Oscar. That only thing that sucks is YOU@@anddyyoung
@@Felicity_Young "Sweet Dreams of You" - Patsy Cline (1963) for Mercury Nashville,
a PolyGram Company, New York, New York, U.S.A. Taken from the "Patsy Cline Collection"
(September 10, 1980, expect for "Always" - the album latter which didn't do too well at the
country charts and many songs were overdubbed that flopped so badly).
Did bernadette petters mistakes linda ronstadt with natalie cole because it is linda ronstadt who sings somewhere out there not natalie cole
Cutest girl EVER!
Top gun.. Berlin's Take my breath away.. Next year will be top gun 2...lady gagas hold my hand...
lol! Songs trash compared to take
My breath away
@@imscared8396 trash is ur taste ...
Imagine calling a wonderful song like Hold My Hand a trash lol...
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthos You know, that's not fair. Back in 1978, when "You Light Up My Life" won the Golden Globe, Grammy and Oscar for the film's original song - I felt pretty good
about it. A longtime mentor/collaborator of many feature film/TV composers such as
James Horner and Vernon Handley since 1978 as well as an Grammy/Oscar nominated
artist, Miss Janie Fricke of Sony Music Entertainment says about "Hold My Hand" from
"Top Gun 2" - a wonderful song that moves us every step of the way. The theme song
was nominated for an Oscar, American Music Award, Golden Globe Award,
Grammy Award, Billboard Music Award, HCACA Award, HFCS Award,
MTV Movie & TV Award and People's Choice Award in 2023.
that microphone in front of her ruined it :-)
Giorgio on the right 😂
Who Is She ?
David Foster should've won the Oscar FFS
Thunder Lips He was actually talking about that on stage. That if Glory of Love had appeared in Top Gun instead of Karate Kid, it woulda won
@@joewhitehead3 The Karate Kid Part 2 earned an Oscar nod for best music, original song - "Glory of Love" in
1987. It was the first of many for David Foster.
I know.
@@markelijio6012 Yes. I was already aware of all that
Is it just me or Bernadete resembles Salma Hayek?
and all soundtrack oscar goes by yamaha dx7
Like Joely Fisher's line was "say what?" from
TV's long-running "Ellen" on ABC from 1994
to 1998. That's the line which most of us
will never forget.
Grammy winner Giorgio now thanks to daft punk
Parece una niña de 7 años hablándole a su curso!!!
Fully expecting Gaga to follow in Moroder's footsteps and win Original Song for the sequel.
But sadly, it lost.
@@markelijio6012 I know.
hard to look into her eyes .....Pan DOWN
"My eyes are up here"
Honestly, Somewhere Out There should've won. In my opinion, Take My Breath Away is overrated. I am not biased. I listened to Take My Breath Away, and I don't hear anything special.
"Somewhere Out There" should've won anyway,
according to Shirley MacLaine in 1997,
a year later.
