Best OST Song?

[Liam]

We've had several topics talking about Movie Soundtracks as a whole, but I thought I'd ask what everyone's favourite song off of a soundtrack is. I was going to ask for original songs/compositions rather than stuff just shoved onto a soundtrack, but in the end, I'm not overly too fussed.

My vote would probably have to go to 'Man Of The Hour' by Pearl Jam, from Big Fish. I love the song, and it just works so well at the end of the film, imo.

Pretty much every Cowboy Bebop OST ever released has been absolutely fantastic. As far as television soundtracks go, it's head and shoulders above everything else.

For films, conversely, my favorite composer is Jon Brion. His work on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was absolutely wonderful.

EDIT: OH INDIVIDUAL SONGS I can totally read, shut up.

I'll just start off with the main theme from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind then and I'll expand from that after I get off of work.

Honestly, I dunno about songs, but Lord of the Rings (even if the movies were shite), Star Wars, Bourne, and The Matrix have had fucking KILLER OST's.

[Benji]

"Man Without Fear" by Drowning Pool and Rob Zombie from Daredevil. I fucking love that song.

"The Mark Has Been Made" by Nine Inch Nails in Man on Fire - Such an awesome song in such an awesome movie. To be honest, the whole Man on Fire soundtrack is amazing.

There are probably others but I can't really think of any off the top of my head at the moment.

Rev 22:20 from the Underworld OST

and

The Undertaker from the Underworld: Evolution OST

...both of which are by Puscifer. Two of my favorite soundtrack songs.

Also, the entire Queen of the Damned OST was prime.

[Dingle]

The Lord of the Rings movies were shite? I'd take them over the books anyday.

As far as OST's go, the music for the Smith/Neo battle in the third Matrix was a FINE song. Nothing else really springs to mind, but for a television one; it HAS to be 'How to Save a Life' in Scrubs in 'My Lunch'. I don't like The Fray, but it fit that scene PERFECTLY.

[Cactus Drags]

Explosions in the Sky - Your Hand In Mine (from Friday Night Lights), it just fits the mood of the film perfectly.

For just badaas songs, Crystal Method's Weapons of Mass Distortion off Blade Trinity rules.

[Skummy]

"Cry Little Sister" from The Lost Boys FTW.

[VerbalPuke]

Fourth Reich Fighting Men from Romper Stomper is an excellent song. All of the music from the soundtrack is great really, good marching anthems and good oi.

I also like the work done in the original Suburbia, though I forget the name of the guy that wrote most of the songs. The movie also features live tracks from D.I., T.S.O.L., and The Vandals.

"Cry Little Sister" from The Lost Boys FTW.

[Darloboy]

Huey Lewis & The News - The Power Of Love (Back To The Future)

[Pesci]

"Stuck In The Middle With You" by Stealer's Wheel from Reservoir Dogs

"Let Go" by Frou Frou from Garden State

"I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" by Aerosmith from Armageddon, I'm not particularly keen on the band, but in the film, the song is awesome

There's more but I can't be assed.

Survivor - Eye of the Tiger (Rocky III)

Guns'n'Roses - You Could Be Mine (Terminator 2)

Black Sabbath - Mob Rules (Heavy Metal)

Besides more or less the whole soundtrack of the original Transformers: The Movie, my personal fave (and its up their with my favourite songs in general) is A Life Less Ordinary by Ash. I'll let you work out which film its from yourselves.

Never seen the film, but I love the song.
