1511 Kenny Loggins - Danger Zone

From: Top Gun Soundtrack, Year: 1986
Genre: Hard Rock/Rock

As many have probably already know Apple founder Steve Jobs succumbed to the cancer he has been fighting for the last few years; my thoughts and prayers go our to his friends and family. Even if you disliked him and/or the company he founded you will have to admit that the man massively affected the course technology has taken in the past 30+ years and we'll surely be feeling his influence for many years to come.
Anyway, ever since I heard the news yesterday I couldn't help but have this song in particular running through my mind. A few years ago when I was working on my bachelors degree I bought my first Apple computer and I happened to catch a deal where I got a free iPod with its purchase; they were still fairly new devices at the time. The first CD I happened to put on it was my wife's Top Gun Soundtrack with this iconic '80 guitar rock anthem being the first song ripped from it. I couldn't think of a better song for today's pick.

Here is a video with the studio version on YouTube.
