I watched Sky High last night, and I’m guilty to admit I enjoyed the movie. I’m a sucker for movies with a great soundtrack. Sky High is filled with that, if 80s music is a thing for you. And Kelly Preston is one hot superhero mama.
This track was played on the opening scene in the movie. I couldn’t place who sang it at first, but I recalled hearing it way back on my brother’s stereo. True enough, this track, Everybody Wants to Rule the World, is originally by Tears for Fears. There are also classics such as The Smiths‘ Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want, covered by Elefant and Spandau Ballet’s True, covered by the Cary Brothers, all in the soundtrack CD. Most of the tracks will be familiar to your ears, if you’re old enough to remember it.
Watching Sky High is like being a kid back in the 80s again. It’s not that far off (for me). I definitely enjoyed the ride.
