What is it with 80's flicks and that theme where someone creates this vocal sound repeatedly over a synthesised beat?
Is it a popular track used in many films, or a trait of a particular composer? It's been driving me nuts for years, please explain!

I think it's awful. It used to be on some commercial for Kit Kat or something too.

Yello wasn't popular in the '80s at all. Just this one silly song was used in a few movies, and nobody knew of who did it.

It's the song "Oh Yeah" from a German group called Yello who were particularly popular in the 1980s. The song was used in quite a few films, including Secret of my Success and Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
