Yeah but “Cinema Pop” is more specific than “Pop”. I hear that description and I think “Theme from Love Story”. Look at some of the nominated (and winning) Best Original Songs from that decade:
The Morning After
Ben
The Way We Were
We May Never Love Like This Again (Towering Inferno)
Evergreen (A Star Is Born)
Nobody Does It Better
Hopelessly Devoted To You
You Light Up My Life
and of course, my personal favorite, Rainbow Connection. Hell, even ’81 was Arthur’s Theme (Best You Can Do), Endless Love AND For Your Eyes Only.
Here’s a full list if you need to find some other inspirations:
