best soundtrack ever?

[10eke]

I recently saw The Breakfast Club again, and I'm really into the song 'Don't you forget about me' from the Simple Minds. That's one soundtrack I'll never forget again!

Do you have the same experience with a movie and its soundtrack?

[richard kolasch]

the movie PATTON.
sound track,,,the GENERAL,S MARCH.

this one? I don't think I've ever seen that one... War isn't my genre...

[Bikerbettyboop]

My husband and I both saw Somewhere In Time and loved it... we used the theme song in our wedding.

[Sally77]

Ok dont laugh- My favorite soundtrack is Saturday Night Fever...

[10eke]

sally, what's wrong with that? I like it too!

[Bikerbettyboop]

I liked that movie too.. it has some great music in it!!

[boopie1969]

I won't laugh if you won't laugh at my favorite movie soundtrack. okay...agreed. lol

My favorite movie soundtrack is "Grease"

boopie

[Bikerbettyboop]

sounds like we are all John Travolta fans here!! I loved that soundtrack too! Olivia and John sang well together!

[mad]

my favourite is the queen of the damned soundtrack being a goth it appeals and the songs go well with the film

[10eke]

I agree with grease!
I've never seen Queen of the damned, so I can't say anything about that...

[mad]

it's the follow up to interview with a vampire its the last film aaliyah made before she died

[boopie1969]

I read the books, was very disappointed in both movies, they didn't follow the books. Music was good in both films though.

boopie

[lowellahoward]

I agree wholeheartedly that 'Grease' and 'Saturday Night Fever' are fabulous.
How about more modern ones like 'Chicago'. It and many others are goodies .
And it is hard to top the popularity over a very long time span the soundtrack from the 'sleeper' film 'Flashdance'.

[mad]

i love grease and the breakfast club know all the words to grease dirty dancing quite good too

[Bikerbettyboop]

I'm too old to enjoy the goth music... my husband and I recently heard a young woman named Tamara here in our town and she was dressed goth and sang goth but it was difficult for me to comprehend and understand the lyrics. I'm into bluegrass gospel and it is soooo different from goth music. But that's what makes the world go around... something for everyone!!

you are never too old to enjoy any type of music as you say it is each to their own it'd be boring if we all liked the same i do have a varied taste in music i have phantom of the opera on cd as well as war of the worlds and then i have heavy rock and country and goth pop and chillout classical i like a variation u can match your mood then

[Bikerbettyboop]

Yes, I agree ... variation is the key to music enjoyment. We pretty much like music from the 1960's to the present.. mostly country, mellow rock, adult contemporary, gospel and blue grass... and that pretty much keeps us in listeners paradise!!

i love sixties and seventies my mum says i was born too late

[Bikerbettyboop]

Ha.. your mom may be right if you are a big fan of that music era.. but it's cool that you can still enjoy it even at a young age... it was a good sound that I think people still enjoy today!!

[lowellahoward]

Great music lives on forever. I love 20s and 30s pop music (The best pop era ever in the USA so they say.) and I wasn't born yet. That music is still played now.

[Bikerbettyboop]

My mom loves all that country music from the Hank Williams Sr. era.. you know the Carter Family, etc.

I still like the standards of the 40's too!

[boopie1969]

I think the same of my stepson. He love the music from the 60's and 70's as well. And he's only 17.

Well there is no music of the 90s and 00s. Just noise.
(Country is the exception)

I don't know there area few songs from the early 90's that I still enjoy. But after about 1993 or so it got to be to much rap. Can't stand that stuff. I have noticed that the newer music is getting back to the more mellow style. Plus a lot of groups are re-making songs from the 70's, 80's and early 90's.

GREAT. I hope the Bone headed young kids who are blasting noise from their cars here learn that. But I doubt they would recognize music if it hit them in the face.

I understand that one. We have them around here to. But look at it this way. By the time their in the 30's their going to be partially deaf or completley deaf because they think their invinsible and don't need to wear hearing protection. So end the end they'll get what they deserve. What goes around comes around 10 fold.

Published reports show they are partially deaf well before their 30s.

[boopie1969]

Published reports show they are partially deaf well before their 30s.

And they probably don't understand why they're going deaf. Makes me laugh how ignorant some people can be.

I liked the 90s... Maybe because I grew up in it... But I agree, the music nowadays is rubbish, exeptions there of course...

Yeah I partial to the 80's because that's when I grew up. But I like all kinds of music.

[mad]

most of my compilation albums are sixties seventies and eighties like them i grew up in eighties too

[GreenEyedBetty]

hey, i got a good one for ya........I love: "To Wong Fu, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar". That's actually the real name of the movie. It may have been some kind of obscure movie because most people I talk to never heard of it. But anyway, you have to check it out....Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, John Leguizamo all play Drag Queens! It sounds bizarre but it is actually a funny film but it also celebrates the diversity of people and how these "colorful" drag queens happen to get stuck in this small town and how they bring it to life. It really celebrates so much of the human condition. I am a totally hetero female and this film taught me a lot about being a woman. My point is that the soundtrack is also great. It helps me to celebrate life and makes me feel good about being a woman! My daughter and I still say quotes to each other that were said in this film. A real feel good movie.

It sure doesn't make me laugh. It does make me a little sad.

That was a great movie. I laughed and I cried.

It's nice to see everyone's passion regarding movies and music!!

It is great. I saw the movie "White Chicks" this weekend. It was really funny. But some people wouldn't like it because it can get a little um... rude.

boopie

[Bikerbettyboop]

I haven't seen it.... is that the one where the guys are supposed to be girls?

[10eke]

yes, they are two guys who have to go undercover to procect two girls. The only way to protect them, is becoming them.. Anyway, it was something like that...

[Sally77]

Ya, white chicks was cute

[boopie1969]

yes, they are two guys who have to go undercover to procect two girls. The only way to protect them, is becoming them.. Anyway, it was something like that...
You got it right. I laughed so hard.

boopie

[Bikerbettyboop]

I saw the previews on tv but I haven't seen the movie yet. Remember that's how Tom Hanks got his start... on tv... playing a girl... I can't remember the name of the show but it was funny....

Last night I watched AFI's 100 Best Movies. It was awesome... sure brought back memories!

[Sally77]

Bossom Buddies? They have the reruns on Nick at Night or TV Land-or one of those old stations.

[Neckless]

Hmmm. Sorry..wrong thread > > > >

[Bikerbettyboop]

I was trying to think of the Best Soundtrack I ever heard and there are several that come to mind.

Hello Dolly is one of them... anyone else think of one?

HAH. Remember I grew up with Broadway. When Broadway musicals are made into movies I've almost always preferred the recording from Broadway. However movies are not always from Broadway musicals. Two favorites that quickly come to mind are 'Born Free' and 'Hawaii'.

[Bikerbettyboop]

Hey that's right.. you're an old Broadway kind of guy!! I bet you saw some wonderful productions!!

[lowellahoward]

Oh yes, and thanks to my parents I started very young. I saw some of the legends.

[Bikerbettyboop]

Well consider yourself fortunate then to have had such wonderful parents who contributed so much to your life experiences.

[lowellahoward]

I appreciate that and so much more!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bikerbettyboop]

That's one of my regrets with my dad is that I never really told him how much I appreciated his input into my life. He had a love for all kind of music and our home was filled with musical instruments. Organ, piano, banjo, guitars, etc.

[lowellahoward]

I understand.

[Bikerbettyboop]

My dad was never really proficient at anything but he sure had fun at it... I'm the same way... I know it drives my husband nuts cause he is good at drums and guitar and bass and keyboard and singing... not me... I just enjoy playing and singing...

[Bikerbettyboop]

Anyone else want to list their choice for best soundtrack ever?

[lowellahoward]

I was thionking that I was surprised no one has mentioned 'Sound of Music'

[Bikerbettyboop]

Oh the Sound of Music... that is a great soundtrack. I saw Julie Andrews not too long ago on tv and she looks and sounds wonderful. She is so beautiful!

[lowellahoward]

And I realize people watch the movie over and over. I've done that with 'Annie' another good soundtrack. Another good Broadway show album too.

[Bikerbettyboop]

Annie's a good one... when I hear those songs, I end up singing them all day long.. do you ever do that too?

[lowellahoward]

Annie's a good one... when I hear those songs, I end up singing them all day long.. do you ever do that too?
Much more often than I'll admit.
Lowell

[Bikerbettyboop]

I sing a lot when I'm in the car or on my motorcycle.. but not when I'm at work.
