When the film became a surprise hit, the soundtrack sold out within days, and the record company was left scrambling to fill orders that totaled half a million copies. One of his contributions, " Flashdance.What a Feeling" by Irene Cara, became available as a single in March 1983, weeks before the film's April 15 release, and eventually spent six weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100.
The film's music supervisor, Phil Ramone, made selections that he felt were the best fit for their respective scenes, and composer Giorgio Moroder contributed additional tracks in the process of scoring the film. The nightclub performances by Alex and her co-workers and other set pieces involving training and auditioning provided opportunities to present the songs that would make up the soundtrack album.

"Gloria" by Laura Brannigan ( thanks to jay, uk) add more infoĭoes the song "She Works Hard for the Money" appear in the movie Flashdance? And if so, in what scene? ( from Colleen in Illinois) What is the name and singer of the song playing when Jennifer Beals' friend is ice skating? ( from jacque in texas) What is the song playing when he's following Jennifer Beals on her bicycle and they end up at an alley where she lives? There are no words, only a very nice keyboard. The song you are looking for is Flashdance love theme. What is the name of the song (and who is the performer) that plays when Jennifer Beals is looking at memorabilia at Hanna's house when she finds out that Hanna has died? It sounds like an orchestra. ( from Danielle in Georgia) ( thanks to danielle, Indiana) add more info It's called "It's Just Begun" by Jimmy Castor and the Jimmy Bunch. I can't think of the name of that song, but the refrain is ".watch me now, feel the groove, give me something, gonna make me move." Know what it is? ( from s. in sa.tx) There's a part where Jennifer Beals and her blonde friend are walking down the street and they pass some breakdancers.
