Music From The Movies

[analyst 0]

I just thought of a new game for all you music henfooziasts whilst you sup yer pint.

All about music from the movies.

 

The objective is to name a track which has been used in a movie, plenty of scope there huh?

 

So you name the song/tune, artist too if possible, and obviously name the movie (in UPPER CASE)

 

Now that all seems a bit too easy, so I added a couple of "rules" because I think you like a bit more of a challenge.

• Since this is a DJ forum, the song ought to be "dancy" smile icon
• And to prevent simply listing the soundtrack from say, Grease, all in a row, you must not name the same movie twice on any given page - OK?

and if you wanna be really smart, optional, you could show a link, however tenuous, to the previous submission, say a link word/theme/actor/director or whatever.

 

OK hope you are up for it, so give it a whirl m'Lords n Ladies.

 

Here's a starter then.

 

Power of Love - Huey Lewis and the News - BACK TO THE FUTURE

You never can tell - Chuck Berry - PULP FICTION

[NRG Roadshow 0]

Mighty Wings - Cheap Trick - Top gun

 

Danger Zone - Kenny Loggins - Top gun

 

 

Both absolute TUNES!!!! :toot:

and both kind of dancey too, so I think I have stuck with the rules, just couldnt decide which one to post, so stuck um both up LOL

Heaven 17 - Temptation, TRAINSPOTTING

Oh well, maybe there's less of you film buffs out there than I thought there might be

 

Since a lot of what we play has featured in some film or other I thought this trivia might work.

I know that I have been requested for a song from xxxx film, where they couldn't remember what the song was called. And of course, as a DJ you have seen EVERY film and memorised the soundtrack just to help and guide them through this.

 

To continue, not for long I fear . . .

 

Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic - THE POLICE - The Wedding Singer

[Stephen_N.I. 0]

Thrillseekers Feat. Cheryl Deane - Synathesia (fly away) 51ST STATE.

Barbers Adagio for strings - William Orbit - PLATOON

 

Is that cheating? I know the William Orbit version wasn't in the movie but it's a great tune.
