WORST music for TCTC

In the proud tradition of the "WORST actors for TCTC movies" thread, what would be the worst music for the movie?
I'm imagining the following being played with utter relentlessness whenever a character, place, or event comes on screen:
Hile Troy - Corey Hart - "Sunglasses at Night"
Elena - Roxette - "She's got the Look"
Foamfollower - Bette Midler - "Wind Beneath My Wings"
Mhoram - Survivor - "Eye of the Tiger"
Ramen - "Rawhide"
Foul - "Hurdy Gurdy Man"
Kevins Watch - Joe Cocker, Jennifer Warnes - "Up Where We Belong"
Verement setting up outside Doom's Retreat - "Theme to Hawaii Five-oh"
Marching Cavewights - Pantera - "Walk"
Lord Mhoram's Victory - At double speed to the music from Benny Hill
I'm sure my fellow Watchers can do much better than this...

I can see that...
But it would have to wait until the part about "...that their uttermost limit...is seven times seven years...". We don't want to leave this open-ended, after all.
Mmmm.
Do you think a "24" type clock would work in a dramatic sense if it was counting down 49 years?

When TC goes to the Club and walks in on the singer Susie...she is signing "(There's Got to be ) A Morning After".
When TC is raping Lena... JUST KIDDING!!!!! Not even I would go to that place and set it to music!

Those just kill me, but especially Mhoram being followed around by "Eye of the Tiger"...

Grotesque.

That's the kind of thing I was looking for.
Nice work, MM.
Why is it that '80s music does the "Cheese falls from the Sky" thing that A Gunslinger mentioned so well?
Not that those songs were SOOO bad. We remember them with varying degrees of fondness 20 yrs later.
But what was it with that decade?
Mind you, in the '80s we saw the '70s that way.
In retrospect we (I?) were wrong.
Maybe a thread is needed on the "General Discussion" or "Vespers" pages on the differences between decades musically and how they are seen by different age-groups?
PS:
"The Final Countdown" - Europe- as TC takes on Foul at Ridjeck Thome.
"Deta..." ... erm no....

Total Eclipse of the Brain, perhaps.
My apologies if I have infringed on any Bush family trademarks by repudiating idiocy.

Because the moment would be so very cheesy that it would indeed rain Velveeta.
