It's been 25 years since Tom Cruise pranced around in his underwear in 1983's Risky Business, but the actor, now 45, remembers it like it were yesterday.

In part two of his interview with Oprah Winfrey, he tells the daytime diva he initially planned to dance in his bare feet.

"I kept falling," admitted Cruise, who was 19 when he shot the scene that helped launch his career. "So I thought, 'Well, I'm going to put on my socks.' I got on the floor. I literally waxed the floor on my hands and knees to get it prepped."

Still, Cruise said, "I was always trying to enjoy every moment that I could because I thought, 'If this is the last film I get to make, then at least I lived that dream.'"

He added, "I had no idea that I'd be here 25 years later doing this."

Pal Will Smith did: "Every man can't just slide in a room nekkid with sunglasses on and pull it off," Smith told Winfrey. "So I knew at that point ... he's a star."

TOP GUN

Cruise also looked back on that memorable scene in 1986's Top Gun when his character, Maverick, serenades Kelly McGillis with "You've Lost That Loving Feeling."

He even sang the song for Katie Holmes at their 2006 wedding.

"Were you a little more on key?" Oprah asked.

Cruise joked, "I don't know why I wasn't offered musicals after that."

The movie was a dream for the actor because, he said, "I always wanted to be a pilot. [As a kid,] I used to travel with two pictures when we moved around. I had a picture of a P-51 and a Spitfire. And I used to make models all the time of airplanes."


JERRY MAGUIRE

As for playing a slick sports agent in the 1996 romantic comedy Jerry Maguire, Cruise said he "loved doing that scene" where he repeatedly shouts "Show me the money!" to Cuba Gooding Jr.

Of the film, Cruise said, "It was one of those movies that had so many dynamics that just came together."

Renée Zellweger, who played his love interest, remembered shooting the scene where Cruise tells her, "You complete me."

"I don't know what he was thinking about when he came through that door, but he was a wreck," she said. "He brought something with him that day."

Of Cruise, Zellweger said, "He was born with some magic about him, and you can't describe it, and you can't dissect what makes Tom Cruise special."

His BFFs, Victoria and David Beckham, said the film brought them together.

"One of our first dates, we went to the movies to see Jerry Maguire, and I wore glasses," Victoria said. "It was first time David kissed me, and he completely steamed up my glasses."


HIS CAREER

Cruise said he is "actually surprised" how much he's accomplished.

"I just feel really privileged to be able to do what I do, and I thank you all for allowing me to entertain you," he told the audience.

"I feel that this is what I'm supposed to do," he added. "I love it."
