You can now choose your top 5 movies soundtracks

Mark O · 19-12-2007, 07:07 PM

For me my all time fave Movie soundtrack is 'Gladiator'.........I play it regularly and love it to death!

They made the right choice by choosing Lisa Gerard for her 'exotic' sounding vocals, 'now we are free', etc;........in fact I'm gonna put it on right now!!

Number two is 'Titanic' and 'Return to Titanic', particulary the 'take her to Sea' harmonies, plus the loud dramatic tracks around Titanic's demise, such as 'a building panic', and 'Death of Titanic'.

Can't think of anymore Movie soundtracks off the top of my head that I'm a fan of........though not so long ago I did purchase a Maureen McGovern CD, on which she sings 'We may never love like this again' from Towering Inferno, and 'Morning after' from the original Poseidon Movie.

I've always been a soundtrack buff, so there are tons in my collection (yes, even on vinyl). Anyway, here's my pick.
Last of the Mohicans
Patton
Star Wars (A New Hope...the original)
2001
Top Gun (the expanded version)
There are many others but these are the ones that come to mind.
