"The Ballad Of Thunder Road" Robert Mitchum (1958)

"Thunder Road (1958) was loosely based on an incident in which a driver transporting moonshine was said to have crashed to his death on Kingston Pike in Knoxville, Tennessee, somewhere between Bearden Hill and Morrell Road. According to Metro Pulse writer Jack Renfro, the incident occurred in 1952 and may have been witnessed by James Agee, who passed the story on to Mitchum – who not only starred in the movie, but also produced the film, co-wrote the screenplay, and is rumored to have directed much of the film himself. Mitchum also co-wrote (with Don Raye) the theme song, "The Ballad of Thunder Road." - Wikipedia

"Living On Video" Trans-X (1983/1985)

In 1985, techno-rock wasn't born.  But it got one HELL of a makeover.......

Actually, Trans-X originally released this song in 1980 (a whole year before MTV!) It was several remixes later in 1986 when this song finally broke nationally on the US Top 40 charts.

This is the most famous mix (released in 1985 and the original US radio hit version, which was released on Atco in the US.)
