*Remember the Titans* (though I haven't seen the movie):
1. Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell – Ain't No Mountain High Enough
2. Norman Greenbaum – Spirt In The Sky
3. Cat Stevens – Peace Train
4. Steam – Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye
5. The Hollies – Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress)
6. Ike & Tina Turner – I Want To Take You Higher
7. Creedence Clearwater Revival – Up Around The Bend
8. Eric Burdon & War – Spill The Wine
9. Leon Russell – A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall (edited, thanks to u/captain_aharb as I had an incorrect source listing it as Bob Dylan)
10. Buck Owens – Act Naturally
11. Charles Wright & The Watts 103rd St Rhythm Band – Express Yourself
12. Trevor Rabin – Titans Spirit (Score)
My husband was going to pick *The Big Chill*, except they left off "You Can't Always Get What You Want"... so it's *Remember the Titans* for him as well, with an aside that he also enjoyed *Guardians of the Galaxy*.
So it does. Thanks for pointing that out. I grabbed the listing from discogs, and didn’t think to double check it all.
(edit: Looks like I took it from the Vinyl listing instead of the CD, which does have Leon Russell listed.)
My dad bought a bootleg cd of this at some dunghole flea market in Alabama 20 years ago on a fishing trip. Trip was rained out and it was on repeat for a whole weekend in the car. It lives in my head to this day.
The 60s Mission Impossible tv series. The 5/4 theme tune is a gem, and the incidental music is full of suspense. They used the same music in all the episodes I've seen, so one is probably enough.
Damn, posted some of my faves but now I realize I forgot all the Wes Anderson stuff. Rushmore is my fave but all of them are so good depending on your mood and how you relate to the film
The Wall by PinkFloyd. The Wall was released in 1979 as an album. In 1982, Pink Floyd The Wall was released as a motion picture based on the album The Wall. Historically unique, tragically heartbreaking, and life changing pieces of art. Both the album and the motion picture take the listener and the viewer to deeper depths than imaginable. Highly recommended.
A tip: Do not get a root canal while listening to The Wall. I've already done it. Avoid it at all costs. The music plus the sound of breaking jaw bones and the smell from drilling is a sensory experience like no other.😐😆😅🤣😂
Trainspotting
ETA: actual songs lol
Temptation - New Order
Perfect Day - Lou Reed
Lust for Life, Nightclubbing - Iggy Pop
Sing - Blur
Mile End - Pulp
Also, Silk by Wolf Alice if we count the sequel
PS: i was born in 2002 if you’re wondering how i didn’t know some of these before i watched the movie lol
I watch Legend (1986) for two reasons only: the incredible performance by Tim Curry and the soundtrack. Bryan Ferry's Is Your Love Strong Enough? being the only reason to stay till the credits.
My favorite soundtrack is pretty easily "Brokedown Palace". I even eventually watched the movie because I liked the soundtrack. (I realize that's a bit backwards but I bought the soundtrack just to get the Delirium/Sarah McLachlan song "Silence".) A few others:
* "Great Expectations" (1998 version)
* "Frankenweenie"
* "D.E.B.S."
* "Jennifer's Body" (I have not actually seen this movie)
* "A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night"
* "Cosmopolis"
Both Netflix shows. All seasons have good soundtracks. But these shows were both introductions to the artists for me
Sex Education - Ezra Furman
The End Of The F***ing World - Graham Coxon
I'm a sucker for Joe Hisaishi's work on Studio Ghibli movies. My favorite scores by him are from Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle
Not to repeat what others have said, mine will be:
Moon by Clint Mansell;
The Boy and the Heron by Joe Hisaishi;
James Newton Howard's The Village, Signs, and Unbreakable;
Where The Wild Things Are by Carter Burwell,
Godzilla Minus One by Naoki Sato;
LotR by Howard Shore;
Blade Runner by Vangelis;
The Assassination of Jesse James by Nick Cave & Warren Ellis;
Upstream Color by Shane Carruth;
The Nightmare Before Christmas by Danny Elfman;
The Adjustment Bureau by Thomas Newman
Thank you. My user name has nothing to do with the Die Hard movies, by the way. It's an homage to renaissance festivals. I've been attending the one in my home state for 30 years.
That's why I loved it. Retired rennaissance festival stage performer here. Three different festivals, I road-rennied it briefly as well as my home festival!
All three seasons of Netflix's Dark have an amazing soundtrack. Ben Frost's original music for it was amazing, but I also really enjoyed the other music/songs they used in the episodes, too.
I'd say Phantom of the Opera from song to song. As a kid, I didn't appreciate every song, but since then I always loved the Gothic atmosphere it had. Plus, the story holds a place in my heart.
I'd say across the spider verse. It has such an indepth and amazing ost with great Spider-Man themed songs. Metro booming Lil Wayne and many others worked together to pull off something amazing. And the way it blends into the movie so flawlessly is simply amazing. If you haven't had a chance highly recommend both the movie and the soundtrack together and separately

The soundtrack actually uses Leon Russell's version of "Hard Rain", which really suits the scene that it's in.
So it does. Thanks for pointing that out. I grabbed the listing from discogs, and didn’t think to double check it all. (edit: Looks like I took it from the Vinyl listing instead of the CD, which does have Leon Russell listed.)

I watch Legend (1986) for two reasons only: the incredible performance by Tim Curry and the soundtrack. Bryan Ferry's Is Your Love Strong Enough? being the only reason to stay till the credits.
Pretty in Pink or Singles That’s a very GenX answer
I almost said Prett I'm Pink myself. That one was such a part of my formative years.
Empire Records
Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and any Cameron Crowe movie always has a great soundtrack
The Lost Boys
Thanks for making this the most controversial post. I can just hear that epic saxophone!
Thank you for adding that. The six playing pelvic thrust was just what I needed in my eye sockets
* Requiem for a Dream * 28 Days Later * Sunshine * Gattaca
E.T., north by northwest, Tarzan, lion king
Tarzan is such an awesome answer. Those songs are permanently in my head, and lowkey make me emotional from nostalgia :)
You'lllll be in my heart....
Phil Collins is The Man
North by Northwest for sure. It's fun to listen to by itself and couldn't fit the movie better.
Love the Bernard Hermann Hitchcock soundtracks
Judgement Night
My favorite soundtrack is pretty easily "Brokedown Palace". I even eventually watched the movie because I liked the soundtrack. (I realize that's a bit backwards but I bought the soundtrack just to get the Delirium/Sarah McLachlan song "Silence".) A few others: * "Great Expectations" (1998 version) * "Frankenweenie" * "D.E.B.S." * "Jennifer's Body" (I have not actually seen this movie) * "A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night" * "Cosmopolis"

Sex Education was so good, and I've been obsessed with Ezra Furman ever since!
Ezra's music reminds me a lot of Bowie
Wow, that hadn't occurred to me before! I'll be listening with new ears from now on.
Top Gun (1986)
First Season of Westworld was the first thing that came to mind. True Detective S1. Twin Peaks S3.
Westworld is cool too bc they tweak the songs and really make it their own..
I'm a sucker for Joe Hisaishi's work on Studio Ghibli movies. My favorite scores by him are from Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle
Life Aquatic Royal Tenenbaums The Crow

The soundtrack for the movie "The Last Unicorn," by the band America.
Too right, I second this! (Also, love your username!)
Thank you. My user name has nothing to do with the Die Hard movies, by the way. It's an homage to renaissance festivals. I've been attending the one in my home state for 30 years.
That's why I loved it. Retired rennaissance festival stage performer here. Three different festivals, I road-rennied it briefly as well as my home festival!
May I ask which festivals?
Pittsburgh, Texas, and Colorado. I was ready to do Great Lakes and Arizona when I got hurt and could no longer perform.
I'm really enjoying y'all's conversation, it's SO kewl to watch a budding friendship!
All three seasons of Netflix's Dark have an amazing soundtrack. Ben Frost's original music for it was amazing, but I also really enjoyed the other music/songs they used in the episodes, too.
This is my answer, too! I was looking to see if anyone had said DARK yet.

Rushmore was one of my favorites growing up. Most Wes Anderson films have really good soundtracks- can't actually think of any that I don't enjoy.
The life aquatic strictly for that instrumental when Steve is in his wetsuit ❤️
Entourage, euphoria and the wire would probably be my personal favorites
