Great Songs From a Movie - lady layne - 09-11-2015
Hey gang!
I am currently working on a blog post about great songs featured in a movie and I would love your feedback. Mods, I hope this is allowed?
So the post is about great songs used in a movie that is not performed by a actor and which helps sets the scene in a memorable way.
Some of the songs I have included so far include:
People Are Strange / Echo & the Bunnymen in The Lost Boys
Bustin' Out / Rick James in Superbad
Auld Lang Syne / Dave Francis in Sex in the City
Bittersweet Symphony / The Verve in Cruel Intentions
The Kids Are Back / Twisted Sister in Jackass 3D
Try A Little Tenderness / Otis Redding in Pretty in Pink
Sister Christian / Night Ranger & Jessie's Girl / Rick Springfield in Boogie Nights

Great Songs From a Movie - Clive Harrison - 03-12-2015
In The Sorcerer's Apprentice Secrets by One Republic.
In The Proposal the opening song did work splendidly however I cannot remember it's name.
The songs used in under cover angel are similar but also similar in that I can't remember their names.
The best use of songs to establish emotion if you asked me isn't a movie at all. It's Eli Stone season 1
