Sylvester Stallone's music is rad

[TripletDaddy]

I was driving around this morning on some errands and it dawned on me that Sly may not be the best actor, but dang can that guy pick some rad theme songs in his movies.

Can anyone else think of a lead actor that is associated with a better compendium of rad theme songs?

1. Rocky Theme Song--quite possibly the greatest, most inspirational theme song ever made, no joke.

I'd go with Harrison Ford as the guy associated with the best soundtracks, but that's not exactly what you're asking.

As far as guys associated with great theme songs, I can't imagine there's an actor who can top that list.

The Rocky theme is the best for getting pumped up for a run. Others that are pretty good: Danger Zone. St. Elmos Fire. Flashdance. Holding Out for a Hero.

My favorite movie themes of all time are the ones in Arthur and the Breakfast Club, but I suppose those aren't really in the same category as Eye of the Tiger and Danger Zone.

Did Survivor have any non-Rocky hits?

An early nominee for the 2009 Cuffies, best thread title. However a late season super bump may be needed so that it isn't forgotten.
