The Movies Region is down to its final four. Not to be confused with THE Final Four, which is still to come.

In the first matchup, overall tournament 1-seed, OMD’s “If You Leave” (from Pretty in Pink) faces its first real challenge of the tournament from one of the most 80s songs of the decade, 4-seed “Send Me an Angel,” Real Life’s hypnotic Rad anthem.

In the second matchup, Berlin’s Top Gun powerhouse 3-seed, “Take My Breath Away” matches up its romantic smokiness against the pure liquid cheese of Peter Cetera’s Karate Kid Part II schlocky ballad, region Cinderella, “The Glory of Love.”

3 HUGE MOVIES (and Rad)! 3 GREAT SONGS(and “Glory of Love”)!

VOTE!!

Don’t forget to watch this video from Rad! It will be the 80s-est thing you may EVER see!

Here’s the entire bracket, to date:
