    Johnny Lee’s now-classic “Lookin’ for Love”was vital in establishing the on-screen romance between the film’s main characters, Bud and Sissy – played by John Travolta and Debra Winger. During the movie premiere, Travolta also expressed a liking for the romantic ballad, which helped the song become a huge commercial hit.

    “Hello Texas” was the song that Bud danced to with a beautiful girl named Pam – the daughter of a wealthy oilman – at the uptown sleek, trendy, and elegant country disco in Houston, a far cry from Gilley’s.

    The dreamy ballad has indeed helped advance the romantic film’s plotline. Not only that, but it also helped Murray earn another No. 1 country hit as a solo artist and take home Grammy Awards for Best Female Country Vocal Performance.

    Mickey Gilley was prominently featured in the film as well as on its soundtrack. Even though his cover of the Ben E. King soul hit “Stand by Me”for the film is his only Top-40 US Billboard hit, peaking at No. 22, it’s considered to be one of his signature songs.

    “The Devil Went Down to Georgia”is absolutely Charlie Daniels’ biggest and most career-defining hit. It is one of the songs the band performed at Gilley’s.

    There’s no better platform than Urban Cowboy for Bonnie Raitt’s pedal steel and fiddle-driven song, which perfectly showcased the singer’s smoky voice.

    This duet by frequent collaborators, Southern and Ronstadt, was the classic conclusion to the soundtrack. Ricky Skaggs plays the mandolin for the tear-jerking ballad.

    Unlike the other songs from the film’s soundtrack, rocker Joe Walsh’s “All Night Long” did not show up on the country charts. Nevertheless, it turned out to be a staple of classic rock radio formats through the years.

    The iconic film spawned another country hit with Kenny Rogers’ “Love the World Away.” The song reached No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100, while No. 4 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart and No. 8 on the Adult Contemporary chart.

    Two years after Lee recorded “Cherokee Fiddle”for Urban Cowboy, the country singer released a remixed version as the lead single from his album Sounds Like Love, featuring fiddle by Charlie Daniels. This version reached No. 10 on the country charts.
