Mighty Wings

91. “Mighty Wings” by the band Cheap Trick was written by Harold Faltermeyer and Mark Spiro. The song was first released as part of the “Top Gun” soundtrack. It is written from the point of view of a pilot who wanted to rage against the edge of life, and ride the silver dove far into the night, “With just a little luck, a little cold blue steel / I cut the night like a razor blade / ‘Til I feel the way I wanna feel.”
