Yep, this one was bound to come up, with Knight Radio hummin along.

So, what pop song played in Knight Rider was your favorite, and from what episode? What song captured the emotion of the situation, or at the very least, your musical tastes of the time?

Mine was "Self Control" by Laura Branigan, from the episode "Halloween Knight" somehow, it just worked very well in setting the theme of the entire episode.

Share! And I might kick them up into a more permanent rotation on Knight Radio!

Oh, and if you need a little help, you can find almost complete listings of the songs at http://www.knightridercollective.com/krmusic.htm

I don't think there's any question for me. It's gotta be "Hit Me with Your Best Shot."

laura branigan's self control.

cruel summer from KITT vs KARR.

Posted: **Wed Apr 23, 2003 1:20 am**

Well I can't pick just one, but here are my favorites:

"Torture" by the Jacksons (probably seeing Cindy dance to it has a lot of influence there, still a great song though).
"Cruel Summer" by Bananarama
"Every Breath You Take" by The Police

I'd have to say two songs which I love but were poorly covered in the episodes were "Shout at the Devil" by Motley Crue and "Rebel Yell" by Billy Idol.

Your my obsesion...by animation

I have no idea which episode this was in, but I've got it on video somewhere.

Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter

but I also liked "Love's Been A Little Bit Hard On Me" by Juice Newton

Posted: **Wed Apr 23, 2003 7:13 am**

Well I would say"crumbling down" by John cougar mellancamp.
I was in Vagas 2 years ago, listen to the radio in the hotel room on going to sleep, apart from in Knight Rider the only time I have heard this.
So it combine's my 2 favorite thing's Knight Rider and vagas.

Love the guitar notes in that tune. Oh, didn't that song also appear in KITT vs KARR? Stings "every breath you take" is also a favorite of mine along with "don't stop" by Fleetwood mac which was on in the pilot.

-Cruel Summer (Bananarama)
-She Works Hard For the Money (Donna Summer)
-Jump! (Pointer Sisters)
-Telephone (Sheena Easton)
-Love's Been a little hard on me (Juice Newton)
-Gypsy and Hold Me (Fleetwood Mac)
etc, etc...

1. Laura Branigan - Self Control => Halloween Knight
(Emotion of the situation)

2. Steppenwolf - Born To Be Wild => Good Day At White Rock
(Musical taste)

3. Creedence Clearwater Rivival - Proud Mary => Knight Of The Phoenix
(Musical taste)

Posted: **Wed Apr 23, 2003 9:25 pm**

Both of mine are from Topaz Connection:
Fleetwood mac's "Hold Me"
and Men at Work's "Land Down Under."

Oh my, with all the great songs you guys have mentioned, I might just have to reconsider my original conclusion!

DK

Posted: **Thu Apr 24, 2003 12:26 pm**

Mine are :

Self Control from Laura Branigan in KITTvsKARR
Cruel Summer from Bananarama in KITTvsKARR
Gimme Shelter from the Rolling Stones in the Goliath's episodes
Down Under from Men At Work in the Topaz Connection
Love is A Battlefield from Pat Benatar in White Line Warriors

Posted: **Thu Apr 24, 2003 3:56 pm**

As someone chose before, I'd go with the 'Police - every breath you take' song...apart from that, nothing...unless it's the Eagles songs from the pilot.

I noticed that the song Self Control by Laura Branigan is quite popular... which is not a bad thing.

Just been watching Kitt vs. Karr... when John first drive Karr from the beach he plays "Jump (in and feel my touch)" by pointer sisters.

seemed like the perfect peice of music for that sistuation, where Johns overwhelmed by the magic of Karr.

Posted: **Fri Apr 25, 2003 2:41 pm**

The actual title is "Jump! (For My Love)"

Posted: **Sat Apr 26, 2003 2:15 am**

Well I might as well put my 2 cents in

1) Self Control - Laura Branigan (KITT vs KARR & Halloween Knight)

2) Torture - The Jacksons ( Knight Of the Drones, where KITT drives on the Sanfransico bridge)

3) My Obsession - Animotion (Many Happy Returns)

4) Gypsy - Stevie Nicks (Silent Knight)

5) Still The Same - Bob Seger (Knight By A Nose)

6) Talking In Your Sleep - The Romantics (Knights In The Fast Lane)

7) We Don't Need Another Hero - Tina Turner (Knight Of The Juggernaught)

Land Down Under - Men At Work (Topaz Connection)

Oh my, I could be here forever
I like em all

There´s many good pop or rock or country songs featured in Knight Rider episodes. I like most following songs:

Torture by Jackson 5 from Knight of the Drones
Crumblin´Down by John Mellencamp from White-Line Warriors
Country Road by James Taylor from Burial Ground
I don´t recall the name of the song which was in Hearts of Stone and I think it was performed by John Hiatt and Ry Cooder
Rebel Yell by Billy Idol from Death of the Knight
Peaceful Easy Feelin´ by The Eagles from Knight of the Phoenix

If I would have to choose only one I would choose the Torture by Jackson 5 because I like the guitar sound in it. I like very much just that kind of distorted sound. I think "Torture" also fits in very well in the beginning scene of Knight of the Drones which I can´t really describe but that´s how I feel.

Bryan Adams's Run to You.

Posted: **Fri Jun 20, 2003 8:16 pm**

Mine's actually Billy Ocean's "Caribbean Queen". I remember KITT driving along at the start of an episode with it playing, but I don't know which one. Can anyone remember?

Posted: **Fri Jun 20, 2003 9:47 pm**

The episode was Lost Knight.

Posted: **Sat Jun 21, 2003 9:58 pm**

It has to be:

The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter

from Goliath, it just gets my head pumping

El Simso

Posted: **Sun Jun 22, 2003 9:48 am**

Eagles - Take it easy

Knight of the Phoenix part 1

it's just one of my favorite songs, and it happened to be on knight rider...
