I searched through my collection for 'Breakaway' on CD.
No luck...I was going to up it.

Here's a link to a 5 minute avante garde film review with Toni Basil (as you've never seen her before), also called Breakaway. The track plays through the film.
It used to be on youtube, but has since been withdrawn. (probably cos someone realised it was quite rare)...spoilsports.

Based on one picture, she had amazing form. I must track this down and watch it, just to see more of Toni's cooter hairs.

Nena - 99 Luftballoons

I'd love to say Berlin - Take My Breath Away, but that's not their only song...it is however the only one anyone ever remembers, which is quite sad considering that The Metro was their best song, which makes Take My Breath Away look like ****.
