- The first-ever acoustic performance of the Top Gun hit “Danger Zone” by the great Kenny Loggins! "Danger Zone" was composed by Giorgio Moroder, lyrics by Tom Whitlock, and recorded and released by American singer-songwriter Kenny Loggins in 1986 for the Top Gun soundtrack, published by Columbia Records, and later also used in the sequel, Top Gun: Maverick.
This performance occurred to a small and highly-engaged 100-person audience at the Historic The Church Studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Kenny went out on a limb and played a barely-rehearsed acoustic version of “Danger Zone” that was inspired by the TV show, “Archer.” Watch this exclusive interview to see more about his creative process in the concert: • LEGENDS | Kenny Loggin...
The audience enjoyed a wonderful setlist of some of his biggest hits including “The Real Thing,” “I’m Alright," and a beautiful version of "Celebrate Me Home," featuring Grady Nichols on the saxophone. This exclusive acoustic performance is part of The Church Studio Legacy Concert Series.
From Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Loggins and Messina, Kenny Loggins launched to an exceptional solo career that brought “Meet Me Half Way,” “This Is It,” “I’m Alright,” “Forever,” “Whenever I Call You Friend, “Danny’s Song,” and so many more! Kenny has also been crowned, “King of the Movie Soundtrack” with his hits in Academy Award-nominated movie soundtrack successes such as A Star is Born, Caddyshack, Footloose, and Top Gun. His extraordinary 4-decade career has brought joy to millions of people worldwide. It was an honor hosting him in Tulsa, Oklahoma at the historic The Church Studio for the Legacy Concert Series.

“DANGER ZONE” LYRICS:
Revvin' up your engine
Listen to her howlin' roar
Metal under tension
Beggin' you to touch and go
Highway to the Danger Zone
Ride into the Danger Zone
Headin' into twilight
Spreadin' out her wings tonight
She got you jumpin' off the deck
Shovin' into overdrive
Highway to the Danger Zone
I'll take you right into the Danger Zone
You'll never say hello to you
Until you get it on the red line overload
You'll never know what you can do
Until you get it up as high as you can go
Out along the edges
Always where I burn to be
The further on the edge
The hotter the intensity
Highway to the Danger Zone
Gonna take it right into the Danger Zone
Highway to the Danger Zone
Ride into the Danger Zone

Oh my god, His voice is as clear and nice as it used to be❤️
No it isn't but it is not bad.
He's great because he can make that much voice while sitting. And don't forget he is 74 years old. I think he is one of the best professional singers 😊
@@ririsilvia7483 in fact, he's even better than you suppose. He was able to sing it for real around the same time as this version, and nailed it as always.
For a guy who is 100, sure. . .
I would’ve never guessed, in a million years, that “Danger Zone” would ever be played in acoustic. Sounds damn good though.
This was definitely an experiment! He mentioned in his Legends interview (ua-cam.com/video/XPApG_Up-_0/v-deo.html) that he wanted to take risks with untested songs here. We think it worked beautifully!
@@TheChurchStudio It sure did. Now that I think about it, Kenny actually did an almost all acoustic set back in 2009 called “Legends and Lyrics” with his old buddy Richard Marx. It was a short set but was really well done and also fun to watch. There’s a dvd & a few clips here on YT I believe.
i would never guessed in a trillion years an idiot named cool cat will be idiot af.
To be honest, since I heard A-ha playing an acoustic version of "Take on me" I wouldn't even be surprised by Daft Punk unplugged
You should give this version a listen, it features Kenny
Holy .... that's amazing! He's 74 and still able to do that!!!! Incredible!! This is so bloody wonderful! Thank you The Church Studio for this gift of a performance!!! Here's to Top Gun being back.. and now this!!! Fantastic!! Well done Kenny!!!
Right?? It's incredible that he still decided to take a risk and move the song in a brand-new direction after so many years passed! What a legend!!
@@TheChurchStudio Absolutely brilliant!
And doesn’t look his age either!
That is what a call get older!
@TheChurchStudio I was offend for God and Jesus when he did that I almost burnt my Bible
I simply CANNOT believe this man is 74 years old!!! He still sounds and looks awesome!! 🤘
Sounds absolutely incredible as ever. Amazing.
His voice is still powerful and clear❤
Indeed!
Kenny's voice is still solid and amazing; I just looked up his age online and can't believe it. I initially didn't expect this live cover to be all that good, particularly as an acoustic version. I was proven quite wrong; this was really incredible! If I were in the audience, I totally would have been clapping along.
Kenny Loggins is the most successful performer for corporate gigs. It’s often just a stool, a mic and Kenny strumming and singing. He makes MILLIONS annually doing these shows.
Kenny replaced the word "wings" with "legs" at the 1:00 mark and makes a face... I was dying! 🤣
Quality never goes out of style!!!!!
You got that right brother
Kenny Loggins still one of the best voices off all times... I searched for Danger Zone covers and realized that only Loggins can sing (and still can) this amazing song! This guy is not from this planet and he is a big part of the Top Gun success!
We completely agree! His voice is incredible and so captivating! Top Gun definitely wouldn't have been the same without Danger Zone.
I think Leo Moracchioli does a pretty good job turning it into a metal cover.
It’s amazing to think that, in the beginning, Kenny was only supposed to do “Playing with the Boys”. But other artists like Bryan Adams, Corey Hart & Toto passed on “Danger Zone”. So then Kenny got offered it, changed a few lyrics and made it an unforgettable hit.
@@coolcat6303 Yes, I saw him saying this last week too! The world wouldn't be the same without KL Danger Zone!
Danger Zone: when the song comes on the movie it comes alive like a rapid paced sunrise 🌅!! That particular version perhaps indicates that it’s basically a country and western song at heart ❤️
Still has the voice of a young man! This song is timeless sounds amazing accoustic!👏👏👏
No he doesn't, but it is still good
@@Mark.Taylor. He sounds about 50 years old
His "Danger Zone" has been powerful and clear since 1986.
Kenny is still dangerous, and still in the ZONE!!!!
His voice hasn't changed! Great Loggins
Really love how he sang , comfortably but still accurately delivered the whole performance
Kenny's got still the pipes. I'll tell you how good this acoustic version is. If you'd never heard the original, you'd think this was how the song had always been. I like the slight country vibe on it, not surprising as they performed it in Tulsa.
oh my God ! His voice is still amazing !
Unbelievable how Kenny still sings this song effortlessly, as powerful as 36 years ago.
Right? And his communication with the band despite experimenting with a new genre for the song seems just as effortless and free-spirited!
@@TheChurchStudio 2ㅈㅉㅈ2ㅈㅈㅈㅈㅈ×21,_"849^,/
Even that his age that song will never fade
Hes one of the older singers who still sounds great!
Agreed!
He’s 75 years old. Amazing
He’s still got it. Never knew this could be arranged as a country song. Kenny looks like he really wants his guitar.
I want this song played at my wedding. 😀👍
Especially after saying "I do!"
Top gun soundtrack one of the greatest movie records ever made...
the song and the lyrics themselves are so powerful themselves, no need for the original music....I barely notice the difference! It's awesome!
1:53 Kenny´s priceless comment on the Guitar Solo: "I Wonder how You gonna do that".🤣
Still got it. Legend. So glad that this song is included in Top Gun 2
Danger Zone is Top Gun, Top Gun is Danger Zone !!
歳とっても超カッケー！！
who would have guessed that k. logg IS 74!!!!!! AND HE IS STILL THIS GOOD SINGING
go k. logg
I got chills listining to this.
素晴らしい声です😄
Unexpectedly lovely, soft velvet voice! Awesome!
One of the most iconic movie songs in history. You can recognize it by the very first chord.
Kenny is a Showmen
He is indeed!
Legends Don't Get Old They Just Change Color
long live!
I can't believe that he still kills as he sings, a greeting from Serbia brought me back to my childhood
看不出來74歲啊！聲音還是很有力，寶刀未老啊！
Thanks for the great love ❤️ and support you show me as a special fan of mine😍, I hope you won't stop listening to tracks , and thanks for your sincere
Compliment and love towards my tracks ❤️may God bless you.
As a middle aged guy I've got to say that audience was like a morgue. C'mon people! This song should bring back the memories of your youth. Get on your feet and enjoy the performance!
I saw one guy tapping his knee
Does that count ? 😂
Yeah I guess alot of us old timers (50 and up) not only slow down but also become self conscious with age. God forbid, we have a good time or show too much excitement! Haha.
Btw, you guys wanna see the ultimate dead audience? Checkout the video to the 70’s disco song “I Love the Nightlife”. The song is incredibly upbeat but the West German audience never smiles or even moves. It is absolutely hilarious.
Most of the audiences look like they’re on the same age as Kenny Loggins. You still expect them to dance like they’re 20 years old?
Could it be that the last few years have not been good ? Just like me. Things have gone wrong. Technically for the last 48 years. 24 years ago things went bad then later it got worse. It's been a rough journey so bad that I stopped enjoying life. I used to drink for off and on for 27 years. A got a new job in 2010 , the following year I had some health issues that ached. Alcohol causes problems with certain internal organ. So I gave up drinking. Sober for about 12 years. It's great. I looked back later after I quit and was horrified of what took place. But I am better now don't need it , but the past years have not been great. Then again with these people it could be something different. Me? Trying everything to get through tough times. Time doesn't stop for no one. Not to put a thorn in some side , it was a shock that we lost Eddie Van Halen. Time ?? I wish I could find a time machine and go back to 1987 and rewrite my future. Impossible. I can only get by now with struggles.
Top Gun and Kenny Loggins are one in this song and acoustically it takes you back to the past again and why not, if you are watching this video it is because you are motivated to see Top Gun Maverick again. How I would have liked Tom Cruise to be present at that Mr. Kenny Loggins show. The 80's will never die, Top Gun my favorite movie as well as Maverick.
His voice is still amazing
めちゃくちゃカッコいいですねー❗️
still sounds good. a lot of the older singers dont even sound that good. a lot losing their singing voices in their 50's he still sounds decent into mid 70's. yeah he cant hit the notes he could but still sounded good.
That was exactly my impression
Art is immortal.
Sing in the Oscar 2023 ! You deserve Kenny !
Always loved Kenny’s voice! And still awesome..
Top Gun 🇧🇷 ❤️
When he started the first chorus I got chills lol. Totally did not expect to feel that
Kenny is inspiring, a genius, and entertains and engages the listener better than ever. Incredible!
We agree! He is absolutely fantastic in concert!!
Still the best.
Pray for me Church!
やべぇー カッコいい💓💓💓
Yeah! Great singer!

Impresionante la voz....
かっこいい😉✌️
Gracias por la buena música Kenny, seguimos disfrutando el 2022 y por lo que nos resta de vida, porque lo bueno se repite.
magistral unicamente su autor pudo hacerlo version acustica!
Puuuts llevo escuchándola 3 veces seguida! 🤣
Danger zone, Through the fire, Mighty wings, only relic! I wasn't born at the time but the feeling is of wanting to have been part of this cast, of this whole team!
70s 80s 90s era the best artist for me.. tho I'm a gen Z kids... their voice are so legit for both Rockstar, Country artist..
wth?? I just watched the ver he did 7 yrs ago dang...still this goooood???
So cool 👍🏻 😎
Impressionado com esse vocal que ainda continua incrível!!!!!!
御年何歳かわかりませんが、声を維持して歌ってらっしゃる。素晴らしいです。
Qué buena versión de "Danger Zone"!!!
Después de tantos años de la original, Kenny Loggins sigue teniendo una voz excelente. Todos los que vimos Top Gun en los ´80 somos capaces de identificar esa música potente, y esa voz armoniosa de Kenny con la película. Por más que sea una versión acústica, puede darle la fuerza de la versión original.
Saludos desde Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Top Guns theme🎸🤠😎👌🎤
The original beat is always gonna be a banger
This song makes you move especially if you are mid- older age group.
I love the sound and Mr. Logging's voice and the background music couldn't be better!
A M A Z I N G !!!
Over the past 20 years I have seen Kenny perform live at a variety of venues... stadiums, arenas, and casinos. He is a top-notch performer who never fails to deliver the best to his fans! We ❤ you Kenny... Keep rockin'!!
Some older singers need to drop an octave or two as time goes by. This is simply incredible. Thank you Kenny Logins and to Church Studio for posting.
We agree! The fact that he can sing those high notes at age 74 with the song tuned only a half step down (which he MORE than makes up for in falsetto) is absolutely incredible. We're glad you enjoyed it!
RESPECT
I liked the fact that he mentioned that he learned this from Archer
one of the all time great songs EVER.
Still looks great and the voice is still there!!!
amazin!!!!
Maverick ✈️
wonderful 🌸🌸🌸🤗🤗🤗🐞🐞🐞Daisy from JAPAN,
Hi Daisy! How exciting!! We're glad you enjoyed it!
@@TheChurchStudio Thank you😄😄😄🌸🌸🌸🐞🐞🐞Daisy from JAPN
I'm... out of words. Incredible performance - what a voice!
Wow they still sound amazing 💓
Archer: Lana, Lana, Laaannnaaa.
Lana: What
Archer: Danger Zone
😎
Fabulous - Kenny is as good now as he ever was. What an amazing talent and gift to us all.
We 100% agree!!
I'm surprised that Mr. Loggins still has an amazing voice.
The first time I heard of his music was when I was watching Regular Show and since that day I'm a fan.
His voice has aged very beautifully indeed!
His voice never faded!!
Never! like his own song 🎵
@@lovelygroovey Yes it has, it is still good but not 'never faded'
It bums me out to see Kenny like this, but is still somehow inspirational
I love this song...
The harmonies in the chorus have always been underrated in this tune and they really stand out here & help carry the tune. This is amazing!!
hermosa voz y canción para disfrutar todo el tiempo.Grand Kenny y su banda.
This is my Danger Zone. Great Kenny!
No kidding! Such a unique performance!
Been a fan since i was a kid...you are a true legend! A true artist and a kind soul! Godspeed!
ARCHER pops out and starts singing. Would've loved to see that lol
Wow😮 He still has the power
