Movie Theme Songs

Got any favorites? I've got a few . On top of my list has to be the song from Disturbing Behavior (one of my all time fav movies back when Katie Holmes was cute). It's by a band called The Flys, and the song is "Got you (where I want you)" (I will add a video clip in my Buffy post since I can't find a movie synopsis version of the song on YouTube, just the band).

Another of my favorites is "Down with the Sickness" by Disturbed from the 2004 version of Dawn of the Dead dawndead.jpg

So many times movies offer songs for their soundtracks that really don't support the feelings or emotions of the story line. I think in those cases it makes the movie less appealing because for me, I want to feel what the characters are feeling (well... not literally. I think getting my neck chewed off by a zombie might ruin my entire day). Songs that fall short of this leaves me feeling empty, and that the movie was lacking (I hate to beat up on Cabin Fever, but its a prime example for a potentially good soundtrack gone bad).

I have several other favorites, but I want to hear from you guys. What are some of yours?

    Cry Little Sister the original film version by G TOM MAC from the Lost Boys soundtrack. That track (in my humble opinion) is the perfect song for that movie. Especially the chorus with the kids singing.

    I agree. An awesome song for the movie. I love when a soundtrack helps you to feel the emotion rather than just see the characters go through the motions. Cry Little Sister definately succeeds in that department.
