Without the guitar it has a very different feel to it. It's much calmer, controlled, but still rousing. Saving this for when me and the guys are next playing the F-14 on DCS. Put this on as the canopy comes down and we start rolling to the runway for a combat air patrol. Get lined up on the runway and put the full version with guitar on, light the afterburners and start riding for the danger zone.
OMG I’ll be 59 this December, this brings so much joy to my heat. I was 22 and would frequent my brothers house. I would stop by with my girl and watch Top gun EVERY weekend. His wife has passed, love you so much Carol. Their 3 kids were running around spilling popcorn and the VHS was blaring Top Gun. A long time ago was just yesterday. Fun memories, thank you! 😊
I was a USAF crew chief on F-4 Phantoms while stationed in England....I'd love to hear this with the jet noise from the opening in the movie without the danger zone music
For some reason I purchased the movie on Apple TV this weekend. This opening track was so: waaaaauw!! I watched the movie when it came out and was overwhelmed. I still had that feeling today! The movie still stands well against many of today's block busters, perhaps even better because there is less CGI, it's all real. Well almost :-) Great musical performance by Harold Faltermeyer
I remember as a 5 year old boy hearing that 8 bit anthem on the NES as the Konami logo came on the 25in tv in our living room. Having that rectangle controller in hand man the memories. Just wonder piece of music.
“TWO OF YOUR SNOT NOSE JOCKEYS DID A FLY BY MY TOWER OVER 400 KNOTS!!!! I WANT SOMEONES BUTT NOW I’VE HAD IT.... (walls into tea carrier) GOD DAMN IT THATS TWICE. I WANT SOME BUTTS!!!!!!!!!
Ryan Marra two of your snot nose Jockeys did a fly by by my tower at over 400 knots. I wants some butts and I want them know. (Runs into a guy carrying coffee) goddamn it that’s twice .
On Sunday when I alone (in the dark) of the main auditorium of my church, I listen to this before I start programing my lights and this song plays in my head at one minute before we start our services.
Same! There's some of us out there who _don't_ worship electric guitars, and this song is just such a cock-tease specifically because there's never officially been a 'clean' version of it released.
On March 3, 1969, the United States Navy established an elite school for the top one percent of its pilots. Its purpose was to teach the lost art of aerial combat and to insure that the handful of men who graduated were the best pilots in the world. They succeeded. Today, the Navy calls it Fighter Weapons school. The flyers call it...
This movie is kept in my memory's if my childhood. The flight scenes were incredible. Flying faster than the speed of sound to the limits of sky. In this movie 3D would had made sence.

Damn i always loved this version. I can imagine me sitting in the cockpit of the 14 on the launch deck getting those afturburners going. waiting for the signal to take off
I came back after watching Reelz Top Gun #behindthecloseddoors today, it's 2020 now. I've got a fond memories of this movies since I was a little. The movie was totally brilliant and I just love it!
Este intro es épico y esperen a ver la nueva versión que se hizo en la nueva película top gun Maverick simplemente el mejor intro de la historia del cine tan real como te puedas imaginar.👍
Thank you so very much, I have waited since I was a young boy to hear this very version, because I never did before and I'm not sure when they finally released this. I always wanted to hear it as it was featured in the film to capture the same emotion and the guitar ruins it.... thank you again so much for posting this!!!
this was awesome I've been looking for this theme for quite a long time , hearing it again makes me think of an old dear friend , working on models of F-14 Tom cats, the carrier Enterprise, and of younger days.
out of strange irony, these tunes become once again relevant in present 2014 wth the Russian/Crimea crisis .......... wake up people, the 80's had great tunes to boost morale cuz' we'll need @ some point in time along the way as this and other similar turmoil begin to escalate.
Nicely done! Thanks for uploading! Hopefully, Faltermeyer's score will be released alongside his and the over-rated Zimmer's score for the upcoming *Top Gun: Maverick* next year.
I dunno about you guys, but this is what this tune reminds me off: Stinger (I THINK that's his name [Bold guy?] =p): "The communications ship USS Layton has become disabled and wandered into enemy territory. A rescue operation will begin within the hour. Your mission is to give air support for that rescue. There are MIGs in the area and tensions are high. If you witness a hostile act, you are to return fire. ... Gentlemen, this is the real thing. This is what you've been trained for. You are America's best. Make us proud." I may be English and I may not like some American films but Top Gun? Now there's a film I could watch 5 times in one day xD [Well...Maybe not FIVE but yeah....I hope you know what I mean! ;D]
For me, it's the sunrise on the aircraft carrier scene at the start. I think this soundtrack and that camera work would make anyone want to be whatever the guys were doing when they grow up. If I had this tune in my headphones while walking to my mall job in the predawn, I'd probably still be happily walking to a mall job in the predawn... As it is, I look back 30+ years to when this movie first came out. I'm the only whistleblower to bring down 3 corporations in 40 years, won't die despite my best efforts, some commendations and medals. I should be a 2-star admiral by now, but I'm an... analyst... One of life's mysteries!
thank you so much for posting this awesome and epic instrumental version of the Anthem of Top Gun.this was the score i was looking for and i found it,thank you for uploading it here i love this movie,it is really ace and a classic from the 80's.i loved Tom Cruise and Kelly Mcgillis, and the cast and fantastic 80's soundtrack by the genius Harold Faltermeyer, and this score is so epic,one of my favourite soundtracks of the 80's.this music is so cool.thank you for sharing it with us.
Maverick it's not you its your attitude, now the guys may not like you and you msy not like them, but whose side r u on? your dangerous! (That's right iceman i am dangerous )
Thank you very very much for uploading this piece! I heard it first watching a Lock On video about the Su-27 I think, but recently looked for it again and it seems to be gone. :[
This version used on the intro to the film wasn't it? And the bit where Maverick is "casting" off the memories of Goose when he throws the dog tags into the sea, and where you see maverick testing the weapons and fuel pylons on the aircraft before he climbs up the steps to the aircraft thinking about the loss of Goose and what he has to do in the mission for real!

Fun memories, thank you! 😊
The instrumental version to me is the best. Gives you that calm vibe as you warm-up.
The version with guitar is also an instrumental version.
Your not alone
was so sad that this was never on the soundtrack not even the updated re-release when they added a bunch. thank you for posting
I was a USAF crew chief on F-4 Phantoms while stationed in England....I'd love to hear this with the jet noise from the opening in the movie without the danger zone music
this was the opening theme of the film.... pure awesomeness...should be considered an "anthem" for cinema & and audio sound tests
As iconic as the original is this one without the guitar is on a different level of awesome
the opening of this movie always made me smile and send shivers down my spine!
The afterburner shot of the F-14 goes well with the transition of the score. “Goose”bumps

I'll never forget me and my cousin watching Top Gun for the first time in the theater when I was 10. It was so awesome on the big screen.
This is my alarm clock tune!
Same here

I play the Top Gun CD when I drive home to the San Diego area on I-8.

Like this version way better than with the guitar!
I tried a number of times over the years to find a copy of this without the guitar. But I FINALLY found it here!

I love the guitar version since I am a lead guitar player myself, but it is nice and ear cleansing version that sound"s clean and clear
Same here!! Thought I was the only one with that unconquered quest left back in childhood.
Same. You can’t heard the riser melody with guitar. This version is 100% match with the beginning of TOP GUN. Nice music!
I remember as a 5 year old boy hearing that 8 bit anthem on the NES as the Konami logo came on the 25in tv in our living room. Having that rectangle controller in hand man the memories. Just wonder piece of music.
I would listen to that 8 bit masterpiece for hours on end!
I actually did a review for that game on my channel!
Up up. Down down. Up up up up!

God bless you for this movie version. Love it so much more than the guitar version. I see the opening flight deck sequence whenever I hear it.
I'm glad that TOP GUN used the version instead of giutar version. This version is so emotional and Inspiring, But the guitar is good as well!!
The bells are the best. Remember getting goose-skin in cinema.
Yes. I just wish someone can tell me what type of bells they are.
@@anthonysammartino1654 coming from a Yamaha dx7 - those are clearly fm generated bells

This version is MUCH BETTER although the original one is what made Top Gun ICONIC.
i ma looking for this no guitar for years ,fantastic bgm

The intro is much better than the whole track. Spherical.
TOP GUN AVIATOR # 1!!!! Cockpit seat still up grabs, every hour counts.... Living the dream!!!!
Tom cruise didn't start losing his mind until the 90s. He was more normal back in the 80s
every time i hear this, I can't help but hum the guitar part out loud. it's just that epic and amazing :)
This is the best version - They've even released this one professionally now, but for whatever reason this one you've done sounds so much better.
Epic theme song! Can't get enough of this and can't get enough of the F-14 Tomcat!
