Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes "(I've Had) the Time of My Life [Dirty Dancing]"

"(I've Had) The Time of My Life" was recorded by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes, after having been selected to be the finale song for the 1987 film Dirty Dancing by choreographer Kenny Ortega and his assistant Miranda Garrison (who also played Vivian in the film). Due to the massive success of Dirty Dancing, the single topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart in November for one week. In the United Kingdom the song had two chart outings. Firstly, in November 1987 after the film's initial release the song peaked at #6, and again when the film was shown on mainstream television the song reached as high as #8 (January 1991). Awards: Academy Award for Best Original Song, 1987. Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, 1988. Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song, 1988. [Wikipedia]
