What song reminds you most of being in a video arcade in the early 80s?

Question

For me, either Journey "Don't Stop Believin" or Foreigner "Urgent"

Answer 1

Rainbow- Death Alley Driver

Especially the music video, I think somebody's playing Pole Position.

Answer 2

Bad Company ''Rock And Roll Fantasy'' , Ted Nugent ''Wango Tango'' , Eddie Money ''Shakin' ''  

Answer 3

Dang dude, that's funny !

I agree with the two you picked for sure....probably add Hit Me With Your Best Shot by Pat Benatar and Freeze Frame by J Giles Band  

Answer 4

I loved video arcades, thats one thing I miss about today. I remember my local chip shop had two of the most awesome games, Street Fighter and Bubble Bobble but no more sadly :(

A song I remember is Welcome To The Jungle by GNR (I know it's late 80's/early 90's but early 90's was when I was in arcades.

Answer 5

Brass in Pocket--The Pretenders

Answer 6

rock you like a hurricane - scorpians or cruel summer - bananarama

Answer 10

lol,

okay well .

I always thnk Of "Walk this way"  And '  Let the music do the talking" ( aerosmith).   it dosent remind me,  I THINK about being in a arcade in the 80's, ( i sayed i THINK about it bc i wasnet even born in the 80's) .

Well, i was in ecuador, like maybe 3 months ago and i waent to a mall with my brother, and we went into an Arcade,  wiht video games,a dn lazers, and "The dance game", where u have to follow arrows adn jump on the arrows, kida like DDR. (like this >> http://www.patentarcade.com/ddr.jpg ),   And there were kids getting off school, and they all went into the arcade and the kids looked like they were  kids from the 80's . it was like they were "delade" 28 years in ecuador.  Anyways, THEY were SO into the game, and crouding around the people dancing,  and yelling, for someone to mess up, IT was soo funny. the kids were such Show-offs, i was laughing so hard

anywyas, i remmeber those songs playing at the time. , so i THink about arcades,,

Answer 11

I WAS there, and i bet it was some Madonna song i suppose, or maybe a Michael Jackson tune, No wait! "Eye of the Tiger" man! LOL!  Actually , i played that "Jungle Hunt" game a lot , which if you know, has a tune that went along with it , and THAT really sticks out in my head. I'm a musician myself , and can actually play the song out today.
