🎉Ray Parker Jr. turns 72 today

I love that they incorporated the dance into the cartoon opening

“I want a new drug” and Huey Lewis would like to have a word.

That could have only been a hit song in the 80s.

Ray Parker Jr: Ow, who you gonna call? Huey Lewis: My lawyers.

Ghostbusters theme alone kept him immortal, but 72 and still got that voice. Not many people get their entire legacy wrapped up in one song and just... own it forever.

Carly Simon provided backup vocals, if anyone is wondering why she's in the video.

It was a better time. Those guys should have had cameos in the film. lol

Huey Lewis already turned 72 three years ago

Hank Kingsley, Norm, a Minnesota senator, Louie De Palma, the woman who sang You're So Vain, Columbo, Inga, and Ty Webb all in the same place!

My whole life of hearing this song I never knew it was a black man I should’ve known better

He ripped off this tune from Huey Louis-I want a new drug

@Marketing_U_ Bloody love this song and film! Makes you feel good!!

Summer of ‘84

Back when celebrity culture was cool

@OUSoonerSteph Listening to his portfolio it seems that most of his songs, aside from Ghostbusters, were about cheating

Bueno con esta canción simpre recordaré mi infancia A donde quiere q valla la escucho Me pone los pelos de punta PD.. tengo la camiseta Jajaja

Back to 1984, the streets in NY was cleaner! Now, NY 2026

Iconic 80s song 🔥

@ueeariel

Happy birthday @RayParkerJr!!! 🥳🎂🎉 "Ghostbustes" theme song is my favorite song from the singer/songwriter! I love the music video! Great cameos! Got to 🩷 Carly Simon, Melissa Gilbert, @Irene_Cara & the other ladies! We see Jeffery Tambor, Peter Falk & @Ghostbusters cast! 👻

Those cameos were epic especially the Chevy Chase one due to his SNL ties to 2 of the stars. SNL alumni was everywhere back then.

HApPY HApPY Birthday !!!

Happy birthday 🎉

Egon todo duro sem ter nenhuma ginga pra dança.
