Limahl spoke about how he was auditioned by Giorgio Moroder to do the soundtrack for 'NeverEnding Story' and about the success which resulted in him continually flying from one country to another to that countries equivalent to 'Top of the Pops' or Radio 1. |

| Limahl named as his favourite movie soundtrack
single 'What A Feeling' by Irene Cara. This was chosen partly because of it reminded him of his wild times (partying) in Los Angeles and New York, and memories of attending the wedding of a friend who married a famous comedian in LA. |
As his favourite movie soundtrack album he chose 'For Your Eyes Only', the premier of which he attended in Leicester Square. Other notable guests were Roger Moore and The Prince of Wales and Lady Diana Spencer. Limahl told of how Sheena Easton actually appeared in the title sequence, which was the first time that that had actually been done in a Bond film. |
