Kenny Loggins – Danger Zone

“Danger Zone” is a song by Kenny Loggins, released from the Top Gun Soundtrack, in 1986. Charted #45 in UK and #2 in US.

“Danger Zone” was featured in the action scenes of the 1986 movie Top Gun, starring Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer. The film was a blockbuster and generational touchstone, and this song is intertwined with it, even though the movie title never shows up in the lyric. For many, the song still triggers a rush of adrenaline from the opening lines:

Revvin’ up your engine
Listen to her howlin’ roar

After the movie came out, the US Navy flying program got a wave of applicants looking to be the next Top Gun.

In 2018, Loggins told TMZ that he was having discussions with the film’s lead actor Tom Cruise about having a new version of the song featured in the then-upcoming film Top Gun: Maverick. Ultimately, however, the original recording was used instead; Loggins stated that Cruise wanted to invoke the same feelings listening to the song as with the original Top Gun.
