Best Movie Soundtracks
Was thinking about soundtracks today, and wondered what soundtracks people thought highly of.

So without getting too structured with this, a couple parameters for the discussion:

1. Let's leave out musicals for this discussion (no "Grease" for example)

2. Lower marks for soundtracks that barely featured any of the music from the soundtrack in the film

3. Higher marks for soundtracks where the tracks really match the mood/tone of the film

4. Let's leave out instrumentals (though I do really enjoy them)


So with that in mind, I submit my top 3:

#3: Pretty in Pink - the quintessential 80's soundtrack? Heavily integrated into the film. Top to bottom, a solid lineup of 80's pop/alternative:

Echo & The Bunnymen - Bring on the Dancing Horses
INXS - Do Wot U do
Smiths - Please, Please.....
OMD - If you Leave
Psychedelic Furs - Pretty in Pink
New Order - Shell-Shock

#2: Purple Rain - A classic, with obvious integration all across the film. Highlights include:

Purple Rain
Let's Go Crazy
Darling Nikki
When Doves Cry
I Would Die 4 U

#1: The Crow - perfectly selected tracks that match the Alex Proyas look/feel of the film. Highlights include:

The Cure - Burn
Nine Inch Nails - Dead Souls
Helmet - Milktoast
Stone Temple Pilots - Big Empty
More solid tracks from Rage Against the Machine, Pantera, and Jesus and Mary Chain

Honorable mentions:

American Graffiti
Singles


What say you?

American Graffiti and Saturday Night Fever are iconic.

The first one that came to mind was Almost Famous.

"America" Simon & Garfunkel
"Sparks" The Who
"It Wouldn't Have Made Any Difference" Todd Rundgren
"I've Seen All Good People: Your Move" Yes
"Feel Flows" The Beach Boys
"Fever Dog" Stillwater

"Mr. Farmer" The Seeds
"One Way Out (Live)" The Allman Brothers Band
"Simple Man" Lynyrd Skynyrd
"That's the Way" Led Zeppelin
"Tiny Dancer" Elton John
"Lucky Trumble" Nancy Wilson
"I'm Waiting for the Man" David Bowie
"The Wind" Cat Stevens
"Slip Away" Clarence Carter
"Something in the Air" Thunderclap Newman

Another one is from an old 80's movie called Teachers, which has sadly kind of faded into obscurity. Edge of a Dream is one of my favorite songs.

"Teacher, Teacher" - 38 Special
"One Foot Back in Your Door" - Roman Holliday
"Edge of a Dream" - Joe Cocker
"Interstate Love Affair" - Night Ranger
"Foolin' Around" - Freddie Mercury
"Cheap Sunglasses" - ZZ Top
"Understanding" - Bob Seger
"I Can't Stop the Fire" - Eric Martin & Friends
"In the Jungle (Concrete Jungle)" - The Motels
"(I'm the) Teacher" - Ian Hunter

And who could forget Top Gun.

"Danger Zone" Kenny Loggins
"Mighty Wings" Cheap Trick
"Playing with the Boys" Kenny Loggins
"Lead Me On" Teena Marie
"Take My Breath Away" Berlin
"Hot Summer Nights" Miami Sound Machine
"Heaven in Your Eyes" Loverboy
"Through the Fire" Larry Greene
"Destination Unknown" Marietta
"Top Gun Anthem" Harold Faltermeyer & Steve Stevens

Some good submissions!

I forgot about: From Dusk till Dawn

A lot of Stevie Ray Vaughn and ZZ top

Music definitely fit the mood/environment

I wore out the Spawn soundtrack.



Awesome thread idea with excellent choices to date. Almost Famous, Pretty In Pink (all the Hughs films for that matter), and Rockstar in particular.

Soundtrack to The Song Remains The Same is pretty good. haha Dave Groh's Sound City is good.
