FLASHDANCE – AKA What a Feeling (Re-Upload) – Jennifer Beals 1983. There are a LOT of copies of this out there. This IS the original which I made in 1997!

Flashdance opened to bad reviews by professional critics but was a surprise box office success, becoming the third highest grossing film of 1983 in the USA. It had a worldwide box-office gross of more than 0 million.[4] Its soundtrack spawned several hit songs, among them “Maniac” performed by Michael Sembello and the Academy Award-winning “Flashdance… What a Feeling”, performed by Irene Cara, which was written for the film. The soundtrack album of Flashdance sold 700000 copies during its first two weeks on sale and has gone on to sell over 6000000 copies in the US alone. In 1984, the album won the Grammy Award for Best Album of Original Score Written for A Motion Picture or a Television Special.
