If you'd
invite me to watch movies, I'd probably ask to do something else. I do like
movies, but it's not my thing to keep binge-watching them. I watch it when I'm
in the mood.
But one
thing I can assure: the best movies I've watched surely had some great
soundtracks. Music is the soul of a movie. It can be pre-existent or specially
composed.
We
usually see original pieces being performed by an orchestra, but sometimes an
artist or band write a song exclusively for a film. And that's today's subject:
songs specially composed for movies. They might have appeared in future
collections of the artist, but at that time, it was for and only the movie. I
may have watched it or not. You guess hahaha.
And these
are the songs and their respective movies:
- Tina Turner - We Don't Need Another Hero (Mad Max Thunderdome)
- Joe Esposito - You're The Best (Karate Kid - 1984)
- R. Kelly - I Believe I Can Fly (Space Jam)
- Wings - Live And Let Die (007: Live and Let Die)
- Coolio feat. L.V. - Gangsta's Paradise (Dangerous Minds)
- Pharell Wiliams - Happy (Despicable Me 2)
- Phill Collins - You'll Be In My Heart (Tarzan)
- Huey Lewis and The News - The Power Of Love (Back To The Future)
- Prince - Purple Rain (Purple Rain)
- Kenny Loggins - Danger Zone (Top Gun)
- The Bee Gees - Stayin' Alive (Saturday Night Fever)
- Survivor - The Eye Of The Tiger (Rocky III)
- The Wonders - That Thing You Do (That Thing You Do!)
- Simple Minds - Don't You (Forget About Me) (The Breakfast Club)
