Cannon2 Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 I don't have a clear cut favorite but I'll start it off with a couple that come to mind. "Mad World" - Donnie Darko "Blinded by the Light" - Blow "U've lost that loving feeling" - Top Gun It'll be fun to keep this one going. Anything to make the next 15 hours(damn daylight savings) go fast! Hope it hasnt been done before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything to make the next 15 hours(damn daylight savings) go fast! Hope it hasnt been done before. Hell yes to Blinded by the Light. Brilliant song, brilliant movie. Manfred Mann - Blinded by the Light; Blow Geto Boys - Damn It Feels Good To Be a Gangsta; Office Space Queen - Don't Stop Me Now; Shaun of the Dead Rick Springfield - Jessie's Girl; Boogie Nights Edgar Winter - Free Ride; Dazed and Confused Urge Overkill - Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon; Pulp Fiction Simon and Garfunkel - Sounds of Silence; Old School John Lennon - Oh Yoko!; Rushmore Queen and David Bowie - Under Pressure; Grosse Pointe Blank Bob Dylan - Blowin' in the Wind; Forrest Gump I'm a huge fan of movie music. These don't even barely scratch the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrockster21 Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 I'm a huge fan of movie music. These don't even barely scratch the surface. If that is the case, may I suggest 'Garden State' and 'A Love Song for Bobby Long', two movies with the best use of soundtrack I've seen in a long time.

Garden State has excellent music. My two favorites are: Jimmy Eat World - Kill Remy Zero - Fair Awesome songs...definately both make my life's soundtrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyhorse1 Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 High Noon in High Noon Both won academy awards and were such an integral part of one another that it is impossible to think of one without the other. Some might feel the same about Cabaret, but I think High Noon wins out because it hits with such tremendous inpact in the movie that no other song or theme is needed.

SkinsD Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 C'mon this is easy and noone has said it... The theme from the Godfather! That lone trumpet is haunting and powerful - just like the Godfather himself. The scene where the guy finds the horse head in his sheets.... the song starts with the rising sun - its tune slowing creeping into the scene then the horror! Sorry for being overdramatic but I love that movie and there is no better fitting song in my opinion. Conversely the greatest movie with the absolute worst music is Scarface. One of my favorite films but the music dowright blows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like "In the Waiting Line" by Zero 7, "Don't Panic" by Coldplay, and "Let Go" by Frou Frou... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teller Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 OK, this is cheap and maybe even childish as neither the movies nor scores were REALLY all that good. But, "Gonna Fly Now" from the Rocky movies was sweet. And admit it, some of you (and me) were the fools who cheered in the movie theater as if you were watching a real fight when that music hit.

mardi gras skin Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 uh ummmmIn Your Eyes - Say Anything No question about it. This scene elicited an auto-make-out response from the girl I saw it with. Every one of my friends said the same thing. Watch this movie, get some sugar, guaranteed. The girls might have been thinking about John Cusack, but they were kissing us. There really can't be a better use of a song in a movie than that.

I have the Rocky theme as a ringtone for someone on my phone. I think "Unchained Melody" from the movie Ghost was a great fit. Blondie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
