"My favourite things" - The sound of music
I know...im a wimp...
"Playground," Madonna - A League of Their Own
"Don't You (Forget About Me)," Simple Minds - The Breakfast Club
"Road to Nowhere," Talking Heads - Little Monsters
heeeeellllloooooo! i will always love you--bodyguard.
Well, I'd have to give a vote to "Don't You (Forget About Me)" as well, because of the band.
Also, from Pretty in Pink I'd have to go with Suzanne Vega's "Left of Center". Not the theme song, but my fave on the soundtrack...
In terms of ones that have lodged in my head recently, it's gotta be Madagascar's "I Like to Move It (Move It)." I know it wasn't written for the film, but...
"The Blower's Daughter," Damian Rice - Closer
"Let Go," Frou Frou - Garden State
"In Your Eyes," Peter Gabriel - Say Anything...
"Tiny Dancer," Elton John - Almost Famous
Good post, Charlie...
The theme song from "Chariot's of Fire"

I LOVE that Eminem song from 8 Mile. Definitely the Breakfast Club song by Simple Minds, and anything from Fast Times :op
Definitely "In your Eyes" -- Best. Movie. Ever.
"Try a Little Tenderness" -- Pretty in Pink. Duckie's performance of that is classic.
"Let's Get it On" -- High Fidelity. Jack Black does a great rendition of that song.
"Time of My Life" -- Dirty Dancing. I still love when Patrick Swayze does the cute "...And I owe it all to you"
"It Must Have Been Love" -- Great song.
And C-Mac, I totally agree with "What a Feeling" -- I used to dance and sing to that song all the time when I was little.
Men in black - Will Smith
Unchained Melody - Ghost
Anything from Forest Gump soundtrack.
"Booty Train" from Employee Of The Month!
And anything from the "O brother, Where Art Thou" soundtrack. (I hate that your questions stay with me all day and I keep thinking of more answers.) :)
Let's see:
'Purple Rain' - Prince
'Have a Little Faith in Me' - Jewel, from Phenomenon,. (Actually, I love that entire soundtrack.)
The soundtrack to Lost Boys
'Sweet Transvestite' and 'Time Warp' from The Rocky Horror Picture Show
'You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch' from How the Grinch Stole Christmas
And I'll second Justice's anything from The Big Chill.
Great topic, Charlie!
"What a feeling" - Flashdance
"In your eyes" - Say Anything
"Accidentally In Love" - Shrek 2!
"It had to be you" - When Harry Met Sally
Also, the movie instrumental theme songs from "Dr. Zhivago" and "Somewhere in Time"
Any of the songs from Grease! I love it!
this is has GOT to be one of the worst songs EVER: Irene Cara "Flashdance, What a Feelin'" From Flashdance
Absolutely ANYTHING from Saturday Night Live
Footloose, K. Loggins
Ghostbusters, Ray Parker, Jr.
Live & Let Die (Bond movie theme song), Paul McCartney
Time of My Life, Dirty Dancing
Have a Little Faith in Me, Great song! Also used in Benny & Joon (a Johnny Depp flick)
Any songs from Grease and Saturday Night Fever.
What a feeling from Flashdance is a favorite too.
Themes from:
- James Bond movies (especially "For Your Eyes Only.")
- Rocky
- Ghostbusters ("Who ya gonna call?")
- Star Wars
Even though it's not this movie specific, I thought Van Morrison's "Someone Like You" was the perfect addition to Bridget Jones' Diary.
Dhunt...dhunt..dunt dunt....Eye of the Tiger...Dhunt...dhunt..dunt dunt...
Oh my Charlie,
You named so many of my favorites and I am older than you!! Flattered here... and a compliment to you for your great taste and class!
