It’s the final Friday in movie May so that means it’s going to be a Friday full of movie music.
Music can be a very powerful thing in movies. It can help set the scene, set the mood, and make you feel like you’ve been transported to a whole new place. This is true for both the classical pieces and the modern songs you get in a movie. As such my list will contain a mixture of classical arrangements and those modern tunes we all know and love. Here are my Tori’s Top Ten – Songs from Movies:
- I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing – Aerosmith ~ from Armageddon
- St. Elmo’s Fire (Man in Motion) – John Parr ~ from St. Elmo’s Fire
- Don’t You (Forget About Me) – Simple Minds ~ from The Breakfast Club
- Theme from Jurassic Park – John Williams ~ Jurassic Park
- The Power of Love – Huey Lewis & The New ~ Back to the Future
- Fireworks – Nicholas Hopper ~ Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
- (Everything I Do) I Do It For You – Bryan Adams ~ Robin Hood Prince of Thieves
- Raiders March – John Williams ~ The Indiana Jones Movies
- Ballroom Blitz – Tia Carrere ~ Waynes World
- Chevaliers De Sangreal – Hans Zimmer ~ The Da Vinci Code
So those are my favourite songs from the movies. There are some songs out there that could have made the list but I wanted to go with songs that I only know because of the movie and songs from movies I have actually seen. I absolutely love listening to all of them, and I hope you give them a go a like them too.
What are some of your favourite songs from the movies?
Until next time,
