6. Old Time Rock & Roll
“Although everyone probably associates “Old Time Rock & Roll” with Tom Cruise dancing around in his underwear in RISKY BUSINESS, I’ll remember it as the only modern rock song that every single lounge singer in Las Vegas added to their playlist through the 1980’s (and some of those renditions were definitely Bill Murray-ish).”
