"Maniac" is a synthpop song performed by Michael Sembello. The song was used in the 1983 film ''Flashdance''. "Maniac" appears during an early scene in ''Flashdance'' and is used as the backing track of a montage sequence showing Alex (Jennifer Beals) training strenuously in her converted warehouse. The song was included in ''Flashdance'' after Sembello's wife accidentally included it on a tape sent to executives at Paramount Pictures who were looking for music to use in the film. A dance music version was released in 2000, by Irish DJ Mark McCabe, entitled ''Maniac 2000''. ==Charts and awards== "Maniac" reached number one on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 for two weeks beginning on September 10, 1983 and is one of the highest-grossing songs ever written for a film. In addition to producing "Maniac", Phil Ramone produced the song that would dethrone it from the top spot, Billy Joel's "Tell Her About It". The Original Soundtrack of ''Flashdance'' won the 1983 Grammy Award for Best Album of Original Score Written for A Motion Picture or a Television Special. The song was nominated for an Academy Award. Another song from the film, "Flashdance... What a Feeling" performed by Irene Cara, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1983. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maniac (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
