Alan_R Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Ok there are alot of soundtracks out there that are fantastic: Last of the Monicans, Braveheart and Gladiator being some of my favourites. However recently I've been bulking up my music collection with some catchy tunes from films/adverts that everyone will reconise. So far some of the ones that have made the compilation: I melt with you- Modern English Sway- Bic Runga Another girl, another planet- the only ones Ever fallen in love- Thursday (originally Buzzcocks) Pure Shores- All Saints You Wanted More- Tonic Meant To Live- Switchfoot there is lots more but any recomendations along these lines would be great. If you want to put which film they feature would be cool too. These probably don't reflect my music taste but I do enjoy them and its something I can stick on in the background at work.

Tazio Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 The way that Fortunate Son by Creedence Clearwater Revival is used in Forrest Gump is damn near perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Only Ones track appears on the sountrack to the chick-flick "Me Without You" which is well worth buying. Can't say much for the film (other than the superb Anna Freil's in it) but songs like:- Super Furry Animals - (Drawing) Rings Around the World Nick Drake - Cello Song The Clash - White Riot Echo & the Bunnymen - The Cutter Lucy Street - White Horses and Dillinger's Cocaine , make the album worth a listen There's a few stinkers thrown in but it also features Wreckless Eric's - Whole Wide World, which is worth the price of the CD alone.
