Hear the Jim Steinman-Written Theme Song for Hulk Hogan
“Hulk Hogan’s Theme” appeared on 1985’s “The Wrestling Album’ and is a sonic sibling to Bonnie Tyler’s 1986 song “Ravishing”

When Jim Steinman was producing Air Supply’s 1983 single “Making Love Out of Nothing at All” for the Australian duo’s
Greatest Hits album, he called upon Seventies guitarslinger Rick Derringer to add a majestic solo to the power ballad. Two years later, Derringer got Steinman to return the favor, recruiting the producer-composer — who died Monday at 73 — to contribute a song to
The Wrestling Album, the 1985 musical lark by the musclebound stars of the then-WWF.
