POST YOUR FAVOURITE FILM MUSIC

Rocky in my opinion was the best film score ever written and I couldn’t imagine it topped in this lifetime. Thanks for the post, giving it yet another listen now.
That slow, dramatic piano theme throughout the movie gets me every time. So simple, but perfect.
 
what an amazing piece of music this is. Jimmy Scott’s vocal alone is sublime, Badalamenti’s arrangement and Lynch’s lyrics and production. So good they shoved it on the film soundtrack even though it’s from the finale of season 2. Has a better song been written for use in a TV show?

I love how often in Twin Peaks, the characters are aware of the music, music (and sound generally) plays such a huge role in TP.

Harold and Maude


Pink Floyd's "Obscured By Clouds" which was the soundtrack for the film La Vallée! This album by PF is my favorite work of theirs and has been since the day I first heard it. It was released in 1972 right before DSOTM. I searched for the movie for decades and when I finally found it, I almost cried because all my favorite songs were used for 5 - 30 seconds. And the movie was not impressive in any way as far as I was concerned (especially considering they did not take full advantage of the music that was provided to them)!


O Brother Where Art Thou


Koyaanisqatsi (and it's two siblings Powaqqatsi and Naqoyqatsi)


Easy Rider


There are others, but these are the first ones I thought of! Some of my additional favs already in the responses by others!

Yeah that’s fantastic. Lynch always works great music into his movies in cool and interesting ways. I’m a big fan of his movies but actually never watched that show. :bag
 
As much as I hate this movie, it has the best score out of all the 9 (6? Lol) films IMO. Like John Williams was hyped for Star Wars coming back… then major letdown like the rest if us.
Anakin’s Theme is :beer

 
I love a ton of film music, from Morriocone to John Williams to Hans Zimmer to Danny Elfman, I love them all.

Lately, Ive been getting into Ludwig Goransson's music He's doing some really cool stuff.



It's same spirit as the Bill Conti scores, and honestly, I think this hangs in the same league as the classic Rocky music.



Both Black Panther scores are awesome, and extremely rich in using African and Mayan sounds. This one in particular still sends chills.



I respect Tenet more than I like it, namely due to the virtuoso film making. And it definitely extends to the score production.

And he owns an Ibanez Stoneman apparently.

You know what to do.

The final episode of S2, Fire Walk With Me and S3/The Return are all up there with Lynch’s best work. There’s never enough Lynch in the world
 
To diverge a bit, I recently finished The Deadboy Detectives on Netflix and the opening credits theme is a great earworm. Nice mix of gothic and carnival.
