The Music
The soundtrack of Dirty Dancing went on to sell 32 million copies worldwide. Moreover, it is considered one of the best-selling albums of all time. We should mention that it also won the American Music Award for Favorite Pop/Rock Album. We’re not surprised by any of this, the film had some seriously great music.
She’s Like The Wind
No one can deny that the song “She’s Like The Wind” tore at the heartstrings. Especially during Baby and Johnny’s goodbye scene. That song became a massive hit and is still considered one today. Turns out that Patrick Swazye sang and wrote the song! Actually, Swayze had written the song years earlier with Stacy Widelitz, it was supposed to be used for the film Grandview, U.S.A. We’re lucky that didn’t happen.
