“Where the Wild Things Are” looks awesome. I must’ve read that book over a hundred times when I was younger. I’m excited to see the screen adaptation, plus I’m pumped to see how the Wild Things look in 3D form.
It’s always good to hear indie music in movie soundtracks. There are so many quality independent artists out there that the general population doesn’t get exposed to. When they are played in movies, it gives people the opportunity to hear what other types of music are out there and expands their musical horizons.
With the thought of movie soundtracks on my mind, I’ve compiled a list of my favorite movie scene songs. Here it goes:
Opening Credits- The Who’s “Baba O’Reilly (Teenage Wasteland)” in Almost Famous. This is a great song and really sets the mood for the rest of the movie. It captures the essence of rock and roll, which is essentially what the movie is about as well.
Fight Scene- The Geto Boy’s song “Still” in Office Space during the printer bashing scene. This doesn’t even need an explanation, just epic.
Car Chase Scene- Ram Jam “Black Betty” in the Dukes of Hazard. I love this song and it is great for any action scene- although it is used quite a bit in movies, its still the perfect car chase song.
Love Scene- “Never Gonna Give You Up” by Barry White in the Bruce Almighty soundtrack. It’s a bit cheesy I know, but Barry White’s music is made for love making.
Closing Credits- “Tumbling Tumble Weeds”- this version is by Shawn Collins in The Big Lebowski. It’s a really old song that’s been covered many times but it fits perfectly in the movie- it really speaks to the character of the dude.
