Tebow inspires John Parr to re-record '80s classic 'St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)
http://www.tampabay.com/blogs/80s/co...ire-man-motion



Tim Tebow, meet the '80s. The '80s, Tim Tebow. A Denver TV station is reporting that the miracle-making Broncos quarterback and former Florida Gator has inspired '80s musician John Parr to re-record his biggest hit -- St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion) -- with Tebow-tweaked lyrics.

I can see a new horizon
Underneath the blazin' sky
I'll be where the eagle's
Flyin' higher and higher

Gonna be a man in motion
All I needs my Broncos team
Take me where my future's lyin'
Tim Tebows Fire.

Can this possibly be real? It sounds that way. And surely weirder things have happened to '80s classics. (Which was worse: Modern English's Melt With You being used for to pimp Taco Bell or The Human League's Fascination recruited to sell Kingsford Charcoal?)

"I was inspired by Tim Tebow so I wanted to modify the lyrics...in his honor of the way that he lives his life as being a great example," Parr reportedly told FOX31 Denver on Monday.

The original tune gained fame as the theme song for the 1985 movie St. Elmo's Fire, but it was originally written as a tribute to Canadian Olympian Rick Hansen, who at the time was traveling around the world in a wheelchair to raise money for his spinal cord injuries. It went on to be a No. 1 hit on the charts and scored a Grammy nomination.

So it's not entirely a longshot to see it repurposed for Tebow, who has shocked football experts with his miracle comebacks for the Broncos, who beat the heavily favored Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

Still ... is it real? Or just an Internet stunt? Take me where the future's lyin'

I guess. But to mention such a crappy QB in the same sentence with the others is true blasphemy.

I'm trying to determine what's more annoying:

A. Endless speculation regarding Favre's latest unretirement rumors
B. THE DECISION!!!!!
C. Our Lord Jesus Tebow

and I'm coming up with:

D. **** YOU ESPN

Tebow must have sold his soul or something. Maybe that's why he's so religious... He's trying to repent. How else can a guy with a wobble-launcher that makes Huard seem like Marino keep winning?

Yeah, all we need is another excuse for the already bent officials to screw us over in the name of another team's popularity.

Not really, it's kind of a joke, and leads to a bunch of dipshits running around acting like he's worth a shit. The casual fans love this clown.

What I find disturbing is that this isn't viewed as a parody or joke...and that some people may find it inspiring...

I am a big fan of the 80s movies like St Elmos... while I didn't care much for the original song, it was perfect for the film and every time I hear it... it brings up good memories. But now, I think he's killed that for me.

I guess i never realized dude wrote it because of the Canadian wheelchair guy and not the movie. Its like he just tacked on the St Elmos Fire line to tie into the movie.
