Waddle and Silvy were talking about this earlier. What are the most memorable songs from movies?

The first one that comes to mind for me is "Tiny Dancer" in Almost Famous.

Take Five:
Tiny Dancer (Almost Famous)
You've Lost that Loving Feeling (Top Gun)
You're the Best Around (Karate Kid)
Layla (Good Fellas)
Let's Get it On (High Fidelity)

even though it was produced for this movie, the rendition of "Mad World" in "Donnie Darko" was one of the coolest montages I've ever seen.

"Eye of the Tiger" in Rocky IV was also AWESOME.

"I Can't Take My Eyes Off You" scene in "The Deer Hunter"

"The End" in "Apocalypse Now"

You guys are missing an easy one. May well be the most famous (infamous?) one out there.

"Dueling Banjos" - Deliverance.

Top 5?

Lemme see here...

In no particular order

Themes to Godfather, Star Wars, and the menacing two note music to Jaws.

Then there's the five notes played to the aliens in Close Encounter...and I've no idea which spaghetti western Ennio Morricone wrote it for first, but the Clint Eastwood staring down the badguy dueling music. I admit the description of this last theme is very lame on my part, but I'll be damned if I can remember what the title of the music is.

Also, Morricone's soundtrack to John Carpenter's The Thing is pretty much just one note on a bass guitar, sparsely plucked.

That might be the first time in history that the Geto Boys and Wagner shared the same page. :lol:

Yeah, I was going to say that I felt like a board puppet when making that post, but those were just the first that came to mind.

That was more Rocky III. Rocky IV would have been the classic Burning Hearts and Living in America.

I would say the Rocky theme itself would be just above Eye of the Tiger.

Stayin' Alive from Saturday Night Fever.

The Entertainer from The Sting.

Theme song to Patton.

So creepy. I watched the movie for the first time in high school, for an English project (we had to write papers on three movies from the AFI Top 100 every month) and it was the first of my teenage years (you know, not counting Jurassic Park when I was still a kid) that truly frightened me. I might be a weak-kneed sissy, though, so who knows.

Last one for now: The Singles soundtrack, especially the Smashing Pumpkins' contribution, "Drown," which remains my favorite SP song to this day.

Flight of the Valkyres was much more memorable in that movie and one of the great moments in the history of movies

The theme song from all of the Friday the 13th movies. The music still scares me.

Carpenter's little Halloween diddy that follows Michael Myers around will forever be the creepiest piece of music I have ever heard.

Although Colma by Buckethead is a close second, despite not being on a soundtrack.
