Harold Faltermeyer - Top Gun Anthem (Movie Version - Rare!)

[davehowellman]

This is totally awesome!

[P00TANARA]

hells bells in the back!!!

[JollySilver]

Try watching listening to this video with the "rain and thunder" video. 

[UrAnus1231]

Why are they all playing instruments like madmen but you're not hearing them..? :S

[pakitovillanueva]

the music of harold faltermeyer is similar to big mac,bored

[Swoop737]

I have been looking for this version since I was 13 years old!!!! I would love to get this on CD! Any ideas???

[donfreszito2vario]

this seems cut in the middle - is there a "full" version out there, going the whole 4 minutes - as long as the version with guitars does?

[daniel2B]

This is great for playing with the guitar feeling like I'm on the videoclip \o/

[vandamme84]

i was looking for this opening theme since many years!!!! thanks!!

[DreamyHanabi]

Thanks for posting this I actually love this theme more than the actual Top Gun anthem. Now I am going watch the movie.lol

[adamcrookedsmile]

they should have put this version on the soundtrack CD. This is from the beginning of the movie, isn't it?

[SCORPiON421]

@adamcrookedsmile Taken from Wikipedia: "A variant of the song without the electric guitar is played at the introduction when an F-14 Tomcat is being prepared to takeoff from the aircraft carrier. After the F-14's engines are on full afterburners and the aircraft subsequently launches from the catapult, the music changes immediately to "Danger Zone" by Kenny Loggins."

[wjfeoi98]

Najllepsza gitarowa soló•wka świata....Wymiata cała resztę....

[donfreszito2vario]

is it only me or is this not the full version of this piece? seems as it was cut in the middle.

[TheDigit62]

[TheDigit62]

[GreatScott1011]

[mugabesunny]

@GreatScott1011 its never been released in any format officially, so its still rare!



[SEGAjdb]

50 people were born too late

[M00shu]

Don't get me wrong, I love the guitar version. But this version is great too!

[1977qpr]

[RK831]

Ripped directly from the DVD and masterfully edited out the background noise.

[Fluke117]

[missionbegins2011]

best version of the best theme ever

[Kashariel]

gdzie byliscie w 1997

[mgrande11]

I see a Shyhawk and a Corsair, what are the others

[JIMMY631402]

@mgrande11 : at 11 seconds you see a Grumman Aerospace F14 Tomcat. At 25 seconds you see the Russians (4) flying Northrop/Canadair NF-5a singleseaters

[mgrande11]

@JIMMY631402 Your right, I meant to say in the scene where the guy is playing the piano in the hangar.

[jtkent28]

Does ANYONE know if you can download / buy this version, anywhere?

[Falcolinho]

@jtkent28 Download the youtube to mp3 converter and just download the URL with that

[mgrande11]

Best intro ever!

[fbf1451]

why do i see a guy playing guitar without hearing the sound of guitar?

[MrBeastthing]

@fbf1451 its not hooked up to the amplifier :)



[mrlemmon]

I like this version better!

[International1986]

this version is better because it drags the beginning out and doesn't have the guitar kick in so early like the album version

[Ostentatious06]

Wow crazy enough this gave me serious goosebumps. I loved this movie so much when I was a kid, Watched it every day after school for months.

[store1992]

i always though van halen did this

[leopheard]

@store1992 So did I, I think it was the particular guitar sound used in the solo.

[santo3194]

46 people never watch the film Top Gun!

[MotorsportMC]

love this music and the sound of the F14

[MrSnow1954]

Wonderful *-*

[Kuokka77]

It's infuriating that even the SPECIAL EXPANDED edition soundtrack release for this movie doesn't have this version of Top Gun Anthem.

[cljohnston108]

Been waiting 25 years for this! How come they never released Faltermeyer's score on its own?

Thanks again!

[mahefaa]

Absolutely love this version !

[detectivesforever]

I don't understand why it didn't make it to the list of the greatest guitar solos...or anthems !!!

[savebylundqvist3530]

I JUST LOVE TWIRLING MY COCK IN THE AIR TO THIS SONG LIKE A LASSO

[dale9532]

Hey where did you get this version? I was looking for this but couldn't find it. Is there an mp3 I can download?

[Mr96tears]

As much as I enjoy the version with the guitar, this version is priceless.

[mysterykcad]

Why does it seem like every upload of the movie version is pitch shifted a little bit?

[mysterykcad]

@mysterykcad Or was my VHS tape (lol VHS) the one that was wrong?

[sololarc]

RARE INDEED!! my childhood classic!!

[wgn3910step]

ＶＥＲＹ　ＧＯＯＤ！！！

[smittyshawn]

LOL eddie

[nisse519]

I've been chasing this version for 10 years, and I'm so grateful to you!

[lilxballax8]

@nisse519 man i've been looking for this version as well

u gotta love it xD

[Skedaren]

Faltermayer remains the best composer och the 80s.

[Herzflimmern40]

TOP GUN was my favourite film in 80's. And this is such a great instrumental.......can't get enough since 25 years!!!!!!!

[183Peter]

słabe to:/

[freedomsoldier187]

Everytime I suit up for a ride on my CBR, this music plays in my head

[mavrik11964]

Will be using a sample of this for my Fireblade track day at Brands Hatch... TUNE!

[v4015]

This is great I've always wanted this piece, thanks a lot

[freedomsoldier187]

whenever I suit up for a ride on my CBR this gets stuck in my head !

[menatwar]

Sony Music Entertainment que va masé po caralho

[krzysiekfx01]

Przepiękny utwór. Jeden z niewielu najbardziej rozpoznawalnych tematów muzycznych.Wszystkiego najlepszego Panie Faltermeyer

[Wicht2007]

Awesome!!! I've been looking for this intro music with no guitar part for a long time. Thank you!

[TigertailzBezerk]

Better with Steves guitars parts

[Orvieta]

Looking for the version with Danger Zone attached to it, it was on youtube months ago, but it got deleted for some copyright infringement sadly.

[solaris99]

I've got $1000 that says the guitarist in this video has owned a 3rd generation Camaro or Trans Am at least once in his life.

[southport97]

I believe Top Gun was the movie that coined the phrase "Blockbuster" because of the money it generated at the time.

[kingbrenty]

awesome piece of music. would have been better if it was matched with the scene from the movie...just prior to the final battle/dogfight.

impossible to watch this terrible video......

[witti129]

Those migs carry the exocet anti-ship missle they can fire it 100 miles away

[skullone1977]

@witti129

Migs are russian material. the Exocet is a french missile. Also, the Exocet has around 30-40 mi range.

[ws4lyfe]

GENTLEMEN, THIS IS BULLSEYE ! .....

The communications ship S.S. Leyton has become disabled and has wandered into foreign territory. A rescue operation is to begin within the hour YOUR MISSION is to give AIR SUPPORT to that rescue.

There are MiG's in the area, tensions are HIGH. If you witness a hostile act, you will return fire!

[twgfEl10]

The dumb cunts complaining and asking where the guitar is......this is the opening credit music fuckheads. You dopes obviously haven't seen the movie!

[kaberisisidoros]

icant hear the guitar :(

[musses67]

The best of the best ! 

[santo3194]

i can't download this song...where have you download this song??what i must to write in my Emule????please answer me soon! thank you

[santo3194]

where have you download this song??

[TribalJester88]

i love this movie.. brings back childhood memories Q.Q

[LastlyMore]

Epic intro

[mgrande11]

34 people are F/A 18 Hornet fanboys.

[mike71085]

@mgrande11 ^^THIS^^ The Tomcat and phoenix missile were created to chase down the Bear; no other fighter/missile combo could do this as effective. Then the Navy pansied out and decided they were maintenance queen$, we dumped the best aircraft we've ever made. Damn shame...

[SellusionStar]

reminds me of Vangelis!

[theludatoni]

german producer

[Crextal]

Anyone have the link to the movie version? It is impossible to find within the mountains of "I want to be a future superstar, while everyone else knows 99% of these guys don't have a shot" gitar players.

[Dreaklock]

Top Gun 2 is coming.... (No bullshit... Google it)

[moorevayne]

great fuckign song to have on when sliding into your womans ass

[brightspark495]

wow, this version is fucking good..... it gave me the goosebumps...

[TheQualityclips]

i love the name Goose..

[NosferatuAaacaado]

where did you get it? rip it off the movie itself?

[NosferatuAaacaado]

where did you get it?

[TheCrossbow1]

AWESOME!!!

[Scorpions179]

where is the fuckin guitar??? fuck off

[dracel10]

Captain: Launch the alert 5, NOW!

Hangar Officer: Negative sir, there's a couple of tools with a piano and an electric guitar dicking around in the hangar

[noonedude101]

@dracel10

You SUCK

[dracel10]

@noonedude101 it was a joke! I saw it in another videos commentbox and I thought I would put it here so I don't suck btw I think it would be awesome if I were that captain and two guys were playing one of my fav songs in my hangar

[peterandjaja]

@dracel10 Hahahaa!... nice one!

[dracel10]

@peterandjaja Thanks!

[Seek2222]

@dracel10 Best comment ever.. :)

[dracel10]

@Seek2222 Thanks!

[brodiecoan]

gr8 song but absolute rubbish without the guitar

[Suomimies112]

Wow, this is like backing track for the guitar version. Thanks!

[2834111189]

Great music, especially without the guitar, the guitar just ruins it.

[JollyRogerVF84]

OMG goosebumbs. I love this version so much......

[Genzo20]

"I feel the need....the need for speed !!!!"

[unnavyseals]

where can i get the full version of this song without the guitar from, this one really hits you inside and is one hell of a powerfull tune very very good top marks

[ballerinakay]

i feel like playing the solo myself hehe. thanks for uploading! <3

[NutzerYOu]

0:21 michael jackson?

[jakemiller5000]

I bet if this version had the guitar solo in it Sony and WMG and fucking gay ass motherfucking Youtube (you fuckers reading this!?) would delete it straight away. They delete all the good stuff from Youtube and keep absolute trash, absolute fucking filth like Amy Craphouse on here. It's a fucking disgrace. Fuck you, Sony, WMG and fuck you Youtube!

[NosferatuAaacaado]

@jakemiller5000 you are an ignorant faggot. This is original mix.

[jakemiller5000]

@NosferatuAaacaado

And you can't read. Dumbass.

[edpistemic]

Now it's on YouTube it's not rare anymore... :o)

[rle1111]

WHere can I get this version? I mus have it!

[coupemattes]

nobody is the guitar @77Revolt.... Harold pays the soundtrack only of his synthizers.

[Exupgenesis]

@coupemattes

wrong, steve stevens is on the guitar :P

[coupemattes]

@Exupgenesis

yes right!sorry

[JPaxton1616]

I like both versions. With the lead guitar is awesome but the this is more suspenseful. It really grabs you. My comment is kinda funny because I am a guitarist myself. But this version really gets your adrenaline running. Great Vid.

[angstbremser]

..the other Version with Steve Stevens is (...like maaaaany other graet Songs!) not longer available...! THANKS A LOT SONY! And f*** You!

[innerloop]

damn it!! the movie version sounds a whole lot better than the original. Too bad its 25 years later.. its too late to do something about it now.

[ImVhOzzi]

This is just the intro music with the music video over it...

[deflep007]

sounds way better without the guitar

[admtm24]

This music kicks ass!

[25daveyboy]

hi mate you can download this version

you can download it from ares, and then type in harold faltermeyer and then select topgun opening theme

[RockHailand]

any1 knows the amp settings of the guitar? xP

[Tomindi]

Oh, you have good names, no one of you kids have ever flight a jet.

[Xplorer1147]

my name is blefigor and im hear to touch your poosy

[rafahenara]

you've just put some echo on it and calls it rare.

still 1 of the greatest sounds ever tough.

[slimboyfatz32]

No, this is the original theme used at the beginning of the movie. The video is the crummier version with the guitars all the way through it!!

[vuski14]

that's great man! but could you tell me where to download it? I've searched everywhere and no results(sorry if my english isn't good i talk better than write=)

[javid53]

your english was great! Perfect better then me and my primary language is english :P

As for download i dont think you can at all. See if you can use the youtube downloader. Message me for more info.

[Freebird101st]

dont worry bout ur english lol thats good

about the song, i can send you in a email if you want

[Sniper09Omega]

awsome music, all i could find befor this was the was the top gun anthem!

[mugabesunny]

Harold Faltermeyer is doing the soundtrack score for Kevin Smith's new movie "A Couple of Dicks" starring Bruce Willis. So get ready for more synthesizers in February 2010!!

[JisatsuSuru13]

@mugabesunny Which is technically "Cop Out"

[bdhammi]

@mugabesunny It ended up being called Cop Out, and it was not that great

[Dreaklock]

@mugabesunny Hey, is there anywhere where I can download this version of the tune? I am doing a school project and want to use this version of the score over my slideshow presentation. Any help you could give would be much appreciated!

[mugabesunny]

@Dreaklock send me PM

[juandacharroninja]

@Dreaklock If you have tried Ares, you can go to Taringa is a page where you can download music, movies and stuff. It's in Spanish, though.

Or download atubecatcher from softonic a free program you can use to download videos and sound files (MP3, MP4, WAV, it can even transforn iTunes into MP3) it is free from Softonic.

[cubdukat]

@Dreaklock Unfortunately, this particular version of "Top Gun Anthem" was never officially released by Sony Music. I'm not even sure how this guy made it. But they definitely should have put it on the remastered soundtrack album. Steve Stevens is definitely a great guitarist, but I've always thought the Faltermeyer-only version was a lot better.

[Progressor45]

Harold faltermeyer is the best..but what the hell is the guitar player doing...theres no guitar in this track...

[maxairas666]

f 14

[Newtamaki]

Omg shut the fuck up,go argue somewhere girls.

[Bodebodango]

@kanedog229 Thats exactly why I know this shit sounds like a porn cause Im in them! And no I don't suck but your mother I believe did some good vein painting on me once! And she sucks good! which is really bad for you, just like this cheap porn sounding rendition of On Top Of MY Gun!

[Superboud]

@bodebodango

Go f$%$@ yourself.

[juangaray2004]

fuck u !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bodebodango]

@juangaray2004 Hey juanofgay Im to busy with your mom to fuck you! but maybe later!

[Kommodore]

where is this mp3?

[cashisabelle]

Sanx for uploading-finally the movie version-yeah!

[criostorm]

This is a fantastic and magic atmosphere when it is combined to the images of the movie !!!!

[stacisimp07]

one of the best theme songs of all time

[veneziablau]

Agreed, the whole aircraft carrier opening is one of the best of all times. Of course Behind Enemy Lines did a great job turning it on its head.

[orzabal1983islove]

tom cruise is a sexy beast

[charlieissocute]

i thought you said there was piano in it and ifor one did not hear any piano but still it is totally freakin awesome

[manns101101]

holy crap - where did you get this version, cos it's awesome???

[tovara22]

Viper:Good Morning Gentlemen the temperature is 110 Degrees..

Goose: HOLY SHIT IT'S VIPER!!

Maverick: Great Vipers Up here!

Maverick:I"m sure he's saying holy shit it's Maverick & Goose!

Goose:Yeah I'm sure that's what he's saying!
