I grew up in the 80s. Half my iPod (I mean iPhone now me old) are songs from soundtracks. Some of my all time favorites. When I'm writing I'm often thinking about the song that will play over the end credits of my movie to be inspired...
I have 100 choices. I just thinking about this because I learned a Counting Crows song at the end of Rounders can ONLY be heard there. It never got released. So that is a great choice.
If you want to pick a great song from a montage like Revenge of the Nerds building their house -- that is fine -- but mostly I'm talking about that opening or closing songs to movies that stay in your head and you associate with those movies.
But let me start off with the one that made me think of posting this.
BACK TO SCHOOL

Video terrible, but I love this song! And this movie.
Also I love it when the song is 100% made for the movie and yet the artist takes that assignment and makes it still good on its own.
