Take My Breath Away 🔝Berlin | TOP GUN #1986 #hitsongs #topgun #topgunmaverick #berlin #takemybreathaway ► Subscribe to my channel: @robywebworld ❤ ❤ See also this video ► Take My Breath Away“ is a song written by Giorgio Moroder and Tom Whitlock for the 1986 film Top Gun, performed by American new wave band Berlin. It won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, as well as the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song in 1986. Italian musician Giorgio Moroder was asked by Jerry Bruckheimer, the co-producer for Top Gun, to write a song for the film. He first wrote “Danger Zone“ which was recorded by Kenny Loggins. Happy with the result, Bruckheimer then requested a slower song for a romantic scene. Once Moroder had written the musical backing to what would become “Take My Breath Away“, he recorded a demo which featured a distinctive bass sound on a synthesiser that would later be used on the actual recording. Moroder gave the demo to lyricist Tom Whitlock. The two first became acquainted when Whitlock, a mechanic, fixed the brakes on Moroder’s Ferrari, and informed him that he was also a lyricist.[3] Whitlock wrote the lyrics while driving home from the studio, and then spent a few hours at home polishing them. A demo of the song, sung by a background singer, impressed director Tony Scott and producers Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson, who decided to film new romantic scenes between Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis to feature the song. The song was first offered to The Motels, who much later released their original demo, which is fairly similar to Berlin’s released version, on their compilation album Anthologyland (2001). Columbia Records suggested some of their signed artists, but eventually Moroder thought of the band Berlin, whose song “No More Words“ he had produced. Whitlock made a few changes to the lyrics before Terri Nunn recorded the vocals. Moroder has said that of all the songs he has produced in his career, he is most proud of this song. Take My Breath Away è un singolo del gruppo musicale statunitense Berlin, pubblicato il 15 giugno 1986 come primo estratto dal quarto album in studio Count Three & Pray. Il brano è stato scritto per la colonna sonora del film Top Gun da Giorgio Moroder e Tom Whitlock. Ha vinto l’Oscar per la migliore canzone oltre che il Golden Globe nel 1987. Al successo del brano seguì lo scioglimento della band nel 1987 a causa di divergenze fra la cantante Terri Nunn e il fondatore della band John Crawford, risentito del fatto che il gruppo avesse trovato popolarità grazie a una canzone che “non avevamo scritto noi, non avevamo mai sentito e non c’entrava niente con noi“. Il brano fu pubblicato nuovamente nell’ottobre 1990 in concomitanza con il primo passaggio televisivo di Top Gun e utilizzato come colonna sonora di uno spot televisivo della Peugeot 405 per il Regno Unito: in quell’occasione il brano raggiunse la terza posizione della classifica inglese.
