Offseason Boredom: Best Soundtracks

hbionic · April 04, 2006, 08:01:38 PM

Up until the last five years or so, I didn't really pay attention to how good soundtracks could be.

My most recent soundtrack purchases have been 'A life aquatic' and the soundtrack from 'Frida'.

Both are pretty dope. I guess you could say that most movies have a pretty good soundtracks...anyways select your top 5 and top 2 songs from each. (this unofficial poll is being conducted for my own musical benefit).

I love the soundtrack to To Live and Die in L.A., by Wang Chung.

Rushmore
Until the End of the World
Say Anything
Repo Man
Pulp Fiction
Resevoir Dogs
When We Were Kings
Crooklyn
Judgement Night
The Mission
Last Temptation of Christ
Pump Up the Volume
Romeo and Juliet
The Harder They Come
Garden State
High Fidelity.

Off the top of my head.

edit: I originally put Passion of the Christ. I meant the Peter Gabriel soundtrack to Last Temptation. The soundtrack to GIbson's lark was atrocious.

You forgot Titanic. I know how much of a Celine Dion fan you are.

Now that I think about it, 8 Mile soundtrack is pretty kick ass and so was Cradle 2 The Grave.

Actually, Sarah Brightman's version of "Il Mio Cuore Va" kicks Celine's ass.

I forgot Trainspotting.

Risky Business. Not the Bob Seger crap, though.

Best soundtrack ever!

The best song ever from a soundtrack is "You're the Best Around" from the Karate Kid soundtrack.

Oh and good call on the High Fidelity soundtrack Dio.

Highlander
Indiana Jones
Grosse Point Blank

tarantino movies always got weird, but good unconventional music. pulp fiction and kill bills pretty good.
