ReplyDeleteIn honor of the 50th anniversary of "Midnight Cowboy", I'll say "Everybody's Talkin'" by Nilsson
ReplyDeleteOr "Into the Fire" from "Goodfellas", again Nilsson
The soundtrack to Sense & Sensibility and Rainbow Connection, The Muppets. I'm totally serious!
ReplyDeleteUse of a song or original....use-Tiny Dancer/Almost Famous maybe.
ReplyDeleteOriginal... hmmm Stay was great from Reality Bites by Entys friend Lisa Loeb.So was Dont Wanna Fall In Love/Pump Up the Volume-Aaron Neville. Tough question
I’m also partial to the reality bites soundtrack 😉
DeleteI was hoping you’d see the plug 🔌!
Delete🤘🏼
DeleteYou're so cool from True Romance.
ReplyDeleteI will always love you and the whole Bodyguard soundtrack.
ReplyDeleteThe Roxanne mashup from Moulin Rouge
ReplyDeleteGoldfinger, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, Diamonds are Forever
The Pink Panther theme
The Star Wars theme
I could go on.
As far as soundtracks go, the 1998 Avengers movie with Ralph Fiennes, Uma Thurman, and Sean Connery is outstanding. The movie- not so much.
I love El Tango de Roxanne!
DeleteAll great suggestions. I LOVED True Romance! Remember Brad all buzzed out on the sofa? LOL
ReplyDeleteDonnie Darko...tears for fears...head over heels...
ReplyDeleteProbably Bitter Sweet Symphony from Cruel Intentions. Idk if its my favorite, or just the most memorable tome. Happened to have an interesting backstory I never knew about write up yesterday

Blowers Daughter-Closer
I’ll stop now😂
Every time I hear "I Melt With You" I think of that movie, which I love!
DeleteYessssss! If you never downloaded it-get The Primroses “AMillion Miles Away”-you will like be back in the scene with Nic Cage!
DeleteMoon River, from Breakfast At Tiffany, which is also among my favorite movies. Audrey playing the guitar and singing it is particularly and uniquely lovely.
ReplyDeleteProbably "Uninvited" by Alanis Morrissette. But ask me in an hour and it'd probably be something else.
ReplyDeleteHoliday Road by Lindsey Buckingham, Live and Let Die, Don't you forget about me. Blow and Gross Point Blank soundtracks.
ReplyDeleteRunnerup for me is Urge Overkill's take on Neil Diamond's "Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon", which just makes that brilliant Uma Thurman scene in "Pulp Fiction" that much better.
ReplyDeleteToo many
ReplyDeletebut if i i have to chose just one, Father and Son, from Rock Boat( and ANATHEMA To anyone that says From Guardians of the GAlaxy )
That song just makes me" feel", and when i saw that my son loved it, from that movie, made me feel even more :)

Money by Ringside from Magic Mike
ReplyDeleteSome of my faves that haven’t been mentioned:
ReplyDeleteComplete Soundtracks:
Requiem for a Dream —also best song title with “Marion Barfs”
Stranger Things Soundtrack
The Music of Harry Potter and the accursed Child by Imogean Heap — look a tie in with yesterday’s question!!!!
Songs from Soundtracks that I pump to 11:
Black Sheep by Metric ( Scott Pilgrim)
The Perfect Drug by NIN ( The Lost Highway)
New Version of You (Felicity Season 3 & 4 Theme Song)
Tons. But I'll say 2: Old Soulsfrom Phantom of the Paradise, and Look Up To The Sky by the Indians played during the closing credits of Kalifornia.
ReplyDeleteThe Batman Forever (Jim Carrey was The Riddler) soundtrack is soooo goood!!!! Tied with the Singles soundtrack. The 90s had some amazing music.
ReplyDeleteHonorable mention:This Woman’s Work/She’s Having A Baby-Kate Bush. That scene was —poignant. Perfect song
ReplyDeleteAudrey Hepburn playing the ukulele and singing Moon River in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
ReplyDeleteBest of All Time: 'The Trio' from the Good, The Bad and the Ugly soundtrack, even better than Ecstasy of Gold or opening credits, you can really feel the tension of the scene...
ReplyDeleteThen:
'Respect The Wind' by Van Halen from the end of Twister and
'Gentle on my Mind' by Lucinda Williams from the end of Talladega Nights - can't buy as a standalone track on iTunes, would love to.
'Can't help falling in love with you' from the Snapper
I know I'll remember more as soon as I post but that's enough for now...
Aaaargh! Caddyshack!
ReplyDeleteBee Gees! Saturday Night Fever! - bought the dvd just for the opening song with the close up of Tony's feet walking.
ReplyDeleteYes! Constant Sorrow from O' Brother! I think is the only other soundtrack after Pulp Fiction I ever bought all of and listened to/loved all of.
ReplyDeleteBarber's Adagio from Platoon ( or maaaaybe it's Mahler's 5th...?)
ReplyDeleteOoo! Oooo! One more! One more!
ReplyDelete'Burning Bridges' by the Mike Curb Congregation from Kelly's Heroes!
I think it's clear that our imaginary get together would have stellar tunes!🎵🎶

ReplyDeleteSo many good ones have already been mentioned. I'm going to add a favorite soundtrack of mine.... Next Stop Wonderland. This was my introduction to Bossa Nova, and have been listening to it ever since. Lovely movie as well.
ReplyDeletePurple rain, oh brother where art thou
ReplyDeleteBee Gees - Saturday Night Fever
ReplyDeleteGrease

Love theme from Romeo and Juliet, movie 1969.
ReplyDeleteImmortal Beloved, Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 Finale
@Spitbite Adagio for Strings
ReplyDeleteUnmade - Suspiria
ReplyDeleteSo, so many to mention. I should give a special shoutout, though, to the faux-80's pop song that was written specifically for "Music & Lyrics", "Pop Goes My Heart". It was SO perfectly done and produced that it really could have been a huge hit in 1985. And Hugh Grant was perfect in the music video for it and in the movie as the washed up pop star. The video is well worth checking out on YouTube because they got everything *so* dead on.
