NOTHING'S GONNA STOP US NOW (MANNEQUIN, 1987)

"Just because Jonathan's fallen in love with a piece of wood,

it doesn't make him a dummy." - tagline

One of the most enjoyable camp comedy in the '80's no less comes from a mannequin who turns into a live and gorgeous woman. Kim Catrall way back in her Sex And The City days plays the titular character who was actually an Egyptian princess turned into a wooden dummy in modern times. Starship, one of the leading singing group in the '80's sung the iconic theme and became one of those songs that define the '80's, Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now. The theme was nominated at the Oscar & the golden Globe for best original song and at the Grammys for Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or for Television.

NOTHING'S GONNA STOP US NOW

sung by: Starship

Looking in your eyes I see a paradise

This world that I've found

Is too good to be true

Standing here beside you

Want so much to give you

This love in my heart that I'm feeling for you

Let' 'em say were crazy, I don't care about that

Put your hand in my hand baby
Don't ever look back

Let the world around us just fall apart

Baby we can make it if were heart to heart

And we can build this dream together

Standing strong forever

Nothing's gonna stop us now

And if this world runs out of lovers

We'll still have each other

Nothing's gonna stop us, nothings gonna stop us now

I'm so glad I found you

I'm not gonna lose you

Whatever it takes

I will stay here with you

Take it to the good times

See it through the bad times

Whatever it takes is what I'm gonna do

Let 'em say were crazy, what do they know

Put your arms around me baby

Don't ever let go

Let the world around us just fall apart

Baby we can make it if were heart to heart

And we can build this dream together

Standing strong forever

Nothing's gonna stop us now

And if this world runs out of lovers

We'll still have each other

Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us

Ooh, all that I need is you

All that I ever need

And all that I want to do

Is hold you forever, ever and ever, hey!

(Guitar Solo Instrumental)

And we can build this dream together

Standing strong forever

Nothing's gonna stop us now

And if this world runs out of lovers

We'll still have each other

Nothing's gonna stop us

Nothing's gonna stop us, whoa

Nothing's gonna stop us now, oh no

Hey baby, I know, hey baby, nothing's gonna stop us

Hey baby, woo, nothing, hey baby

Nothing's gonna stop us now yeah...
