The music that movies are made to!

SpaceCowb0y

Just thought i'd start a thread for anyone like me who is a massive fan of movie soundtracks!

I find a lot of new music from the movies/tv shows that i watch so maybe others who find a certain song they love from a film/show can share it here so someone else who may have been looking for it can stumble across it!

I guess the best way to do this is simply post the video and give the name of what it featured in in the title...

"Sense of Touch" from the movie "Crash". Also used in a season finale of "Law & Order SVU"

And this fab Beastie Boys classic, used to marvellous and memorable effect in Breaking Bad

"Once Upon a Time in the West" is often described as "operatic". Leone and composer Morriconne vision helped make this soundtrack so astounding

Beck's cover of Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

This blew me away, back when the beeb broadcast it. I love a bit of Hans, me.

Now, if anyone can find the themes to these two, I'd be mighty impressed

The Fear; 80s cockney/yuppie crime drama & The Marksman; 80s/early 90s revenge thriller starring David Threlfall, Michael Angelis and Craig Charles

Maybe one of the lesser well-known songs that appears on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack is If Love Is A Red Dress by Maria McKee. The scene in the pawn shop.

The Sopranos had some absolutely brilliant music choices over the years.

This appeared in season 3, in the episode Another Toothpick.

In season 1, during the scene where

the feds are spying as Junior is appointed the new boss

, possibly my favourite scene from any television show ever, the instrumental for Xzibit's Paparazzi plays.

Thread has made it likely ill watch Pulp Fiction tonight.

Icarus Wings

Picked up some great songs from movie soundtracks over the years! Have to limit myself to just 3 songs from 3 excellant full soundtracks -

From Drive (2011) - perfectly suited to the entire movie's vibe

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DSVDcw6iW8

From Reservoir Dogs (1992) - Tarantino has a great ear for soundtracks

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URmlMI0I2GQ

From Crazy Heart (2009) - captures some of the struggles in life

Great song at the end of the film

From the climax of 28 days later, such a tense song

Had never heard of this artiist before, love this song

Sinfonia

I could post here all day! (Film composer tryna 'make it')

I'll just add this for the Pulp Fiction theme:

So simple, so delicious.

This is in the opening to Mean Streets.

From the final season of The Sopranos; John Cooper Clarke's "Evidently Chickentown"

Slightly dodgy audio

Jimmy Iovine

Since Where Is My Mind and Paparazzi have been mentioned already I'll list another one of my favourites - Golden Brown by The Stranglers from Snatch.

The first half of the scene is brilliant. The narrative from Jason Statham and Stephen Graham's magnificent acting mixed with the backing music makes it even better though.

Tommy, the tit, is praying. And, if he isn't, he facking should be!

Another favourite of mine is Rags to Riches by Tony Bennett from Goodfellas. It occurs just after the opening scene and plays while the opening credits are rolling. The perfect start to what is, in my unqualified opinion, the perfect film.

This appears on the soundtrack for The Virgin Suicides.

This is in High Fidelity.

I love my Bond films. I love some of the songs from the films.

But this one just blew me away when I saw it in the cinema. It was totally of the classic Shirley Bassey-era, and was so sweeping and grandiose. It just set the tone for the entire film. Epic beyond all words.

From my favorite scene in "Training Day" where Denzel tells Ethan Hawke "You're in the office"

Absolute classic used in the intro to the film!

Jimmy Iovine

The first song you hear in 8 Mile is Shook Ones: Part 2 by Mobb Deep. What a way to start it off. There are only a few songs that can match it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cP0wsET8__Y

The last song you hear in 8 Mile is Lose Yourself by Eminem. What a way to finish it off. There are only a few songs that can match it.

Grandiose, overblown and supremely epic...

Again, from Star Wars. This is just so unbelievably evil and sinister and atmospheric.

Everyone remembers Harold Faltermeyer’s Axel F from Beverley Hills Cop but I always thought the Fletch theme knocked the sh*t out of it, and it was never raped by a crazy frog
Love this 12’ version
