Songs From the Movies

After I saw Music & Lyrics I sang that ridiculous I'm Living With a Clown Above My Bed forever. Remember when all the little girls--and, okay the moms--were singing Let It Go from Disney's Frozen? I love the I See You theme song by Leona Lewis from Avatar. More recently nobody talks about Bruno!

Here's a quick list I came up with. Are any of these on your favorites list? Which ones are stuck in your head for life?

* This Old Time Rock & Roll, Bob Seger, Risky Business
* The Time of My Life, Jennifer Warnes & Bill Medley, Dirty Dancing
* Take My Breath Away, Berlin, Top Gun
* Unchained Melody, Righteous Brothers, Ghost
* You've Got A Way, Shania Twain, Notting Hill
* To Make You Feel My Love, Tricia Yearwood, Hope Floats
* Summer Nights, John Travolta, Olivia Newton-John, Grease
* Eye of the Tiger, Survivor, Rocky III
* Under the Boardwalk, Bette Midler, Beaches
* My Heart Will Go On, Celine Dion, Titanic
* Pretty Woman, Roy Orbison, Pretty Woman & Warm Bodies
* Circle of Life, Elton John, The Lion King
* I Will Always Love You, Whitney Houston, Bodyguard
* Shallow, Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper, A Star is Born
This is Me, Keala Settle, Greatest Showman

Of course, there are so many more, I couldn't even make a dent in iconic movie songs. I did note that so many of the greats are from decades past. I love the soundtrack of Guardians of the Galaxy--those are all fabulous oldies. But now I can't hear Come and Get Your Love without seeing Chris Pratt kicking little alien creatures aside.



What are your favorite unforgettable songs from the movies?
Any from recent years?
