MICHAEL SEMBELLO 🔥 “MANIAC“ (Special Dance Remix) 1983 Hi-NRG Disco Flashdance Synth Pop Classic 80s

Previously UNRELEASED DJ PROMO ONLY MIX 🥇 1st time this DJ’s ONLY REMIX PROMO MUSIC VIDEO is seen on YouTube! 🥇 “Maniac“ is a song from the 1983 film Flashdance that was written by Dennis Matkosky & Michael Sembello and also performed by Michael Sembello. The original idea for the song came to Matkosky while watching a news report on a serial killer, which inspired gruesome lyrics that he and Sembello expanded upon after finding a 1980 horror film with the same name. When Flashdance director Adrian Lyne grew attached to the demo of the song used during filming, his music supervisor Phil Ramone requested lyrics more appropriate for their story of a dancer and worked with Sembello to produce a new version for the soundtrack. The new recording was used for a scene in which the main character trains rigorously at home. After the film became a surprise success, a music video was made using scenes from the film and began airing on the cable channel MTV in May 1
