I saw the new Tron at the cinema, and in "Flynns" he has an jukebox playing cracking 80s songs.

The first song is Separate Ways by Journey which is an utterly belting song, and quite clearly would be in my top 3 songs, but this got me thinking which other songs I would add to my 80s jukebox.

So over to you. If you had to put 3 songs onto an 80s jukebox in an 80s arcade, which 3 songs would it be?

A tune indeed. Not quite epic enough for a big arcade jukebox tho IMHO.

Any Way You Want It By Journey....that would sound awesome.

I'd like to put the case for a late 70s inclusion (as the jukebox could carry pre-80s tunes too, of course)

Both Journey songs mentioned above and Living on a prayer by Bon Jovi...but I am undecided about that last one...
