If I may take a few moments of your day to get your opinion on the following two songs: Our Song by Yes, and the Final Countdown by Europe. (I have linked to a Live version of TFC because the original recording is not available in my country.) They are both fantastic and lasting songs, but which song is better? Comment below, being as concise or verbose as you would like.
The Final Countdown is superior because it is also the title of an awesome movie, whereas Our Song is the title of an incredibly lame movie.
My logic is irrefutable.
I just wanted to post my recommendation of the best 80’s song.
Herbie Hancock – Rockit
yeah i know.
I have to throw my hat in here…. I’m a fan of “Jump” By Van Halen.
Rockit video is awesome!
I’m sorry I didn’t vote. If I had to choose out of the two songs I’d have to give it up to the Final Countdown. It’s much more mainstream and popular then Our song, and popularity matters in my opinion.
Also, here is the link to my choice.

Enjoy.
I would have to with Brunke, Rockit is the best.
I think that the conversation has gotten off topic. Please let us focus on which of the two songs are better. A separate post will be made to query your favorite 80’s songs.
Thank you.
The Final Countdown is a far superior song.
I’d say Our song. I think the Final Countdown is too mainstream for this comparison.
My vote goes to Our Song, by Yes. For undisclosed reasons.
Anonymous is an idiot. There will be no separate post for your favourite 80s song.
I now have a song from Top Gun stuck in my head.
Thank you, all.
Our Song by Yes is better.
The Final Countdown is a dumb song.
I’m going to go for The Final Countdown because of the name alone.
I prefer “The Final Spongedown” by SpongeBob SquarePants: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nN2C6L9v2XM&feature=related
And Nice, definitely want to make a trip there! As long as it’s within the budget, of course. Maybe Madrid too! We’ll have finals around that time though. Keep me posted.
I’m going to have to go with the “FInal Countdown.” Totally heart eighties rock and the hair that went along with it :p
