Animotion - Obsession [Official Instrumental]

[@ArcadeMusicTribute]

This was my favorite synth riff of the 80s. I never even knew what band was playing it, but I've heard it again and again during the WWF "Main Event" promo. I loved it. I actually thought it was WWF music made by their people or something and then I've completelly forgotten about it.... until about two weeks ago, somebody made a short regarding the New Retro Wave and there was this synth riff and my head exploded. I used shazam and finally got to this song.... it only took about 40 years, but yeah :D

[@gemmalynn536]

holy hell!!! it gets no better than this, whoever made this sound so loud & clear is exceptional❤❤, love this is still being shared & listened to, no decade matches the 80's❤❤ i adore this!!

[@SgtPepper291]

I can never get that keyboard riff out of my head

[@kforcer]

You and me both man.

[@ShadowSpace56z]

I was born in the 97’ I remember hearing this through my Mom’s boombox when she showers 😂 we had a Major blast dancing around while getting ready to go out. i sure do miss those times

[@MrMondayNightWar]

94’ man my mom loved the 80s (Memory unlocked 🔓)

[@fabiomonteiro3896]

Yeah!!! The '80s are my obsession!!!

[@stevenlaboe3585]

Arguably one of the most popular fashion runway tunes used in New York, Paris, London, and Milan throughout the 80's. Doesn't get much better than this. GREAT QUALITY SOUND for this platform! 😎

[@Ralphyboy660]

I remember waiting up saturday nights hoping theyd say SNL will not be airing tonight...stay tuned for a WWF special

[@BB-qv1vg]

Fashion File outro. A conversation about the show and ultimately this instrumental version of Obsession is what brought me here :)

[@kforcer]

Yeap. I remember that. Its funny, a show about fashion on MTV--or VH1, I can't remember which--had, in its credits, a sort of unofficial music video that was more compelling and memorable than 99% of the actual music videos.

[@electrofreek999]

Wow the beat when it starts! 80s best era...

This song is BACK on Saturday Night's Main Event where it belongs!

[@wizardofodd1103]

Memories of WWF SATURDAY NIGHTS MAIN EVENT come to mind

[@kingslowbrafas292]

Big time, screw GTA and Fashion whatever. This is the real SNME theme song. First one I saw was Steele vs Savage. They always put the main event or Hogan match on early while kids were still awake.

[@danieldb631]

Damn good sound. Under other circumstances, it would have fit right in with a Sonic game soundtrack. It's a bopper.

Used by WWF Saturday Night Main event, and Fashion TV!!!

I think this was played in NFL Films Super Bowl XXI highlights even just for a few seconds.

[@kforcer]

I love the instrumental, but I just never enjoyed the sung portion or the lyrics, somehow. It's just so memorable instrumentally, it's hard to create vocals that effectively live up to it, I guess.
