Almost Famous is one movie that really makes good use of music in relationship with whats going on in the picture. My favorite scene was the one where they're were all huddled in the tour bus, and Tiny Dancer was playing on the radio... loved that one! :D

Tiny Dancer! Almost Famous is one of my all-time favorite movies. Cameron Crowe is a filmmaker who knows exactly which song to play at any given scene. That scene where they all made peace with one another singing Tiny Dancer is a golden moment in cinema for me. :)

maraming nagawang teen movies na tinambakan ng popular hits of the day kaya if u get one of their soundtracks parang collection of hits during that time

 

WEIRD SCIENCE - includes tenderness - general public

REVENGE OF THE NERDS - burning down the house - talking heads

there's something about mary - build me up buttercup

Here's another one: "I Melt with You" by Modern English in the movie "Valley Girls" which starred a very young Nicolas Coppola appearing for the first time as Nicolas Cage. Another scene in the movie had the Men at Work's hit "Who Could It Be Now" playing in the background.

Napansin ko lang sa mga movies ngayon ang songs na ginagamit sa movies di original but existing songs na binabagay sa eksena sa movie. There was a time when movies contained nothing but originals songs.

yup, and those existing songs were released way back in the 60s, 70s or 80s revived by modern groupies/singers which seems refreshingly new again. local movie makers should approach this trend to upbeat stiff scenes.

Actors/Actresses that have sang songs in the movies which became instant hits:

 

1. Keith Carradine (half-brother of Kung Fu's David Carradine and Lizzie Mcguire's Dad Robert Carradine) - lyrics and composed/sang by Keith from the movie NASHVILLE.

 

2. Gwyneth Paltrow - sang CRUISIN' from the movie DUETS with Huey Lewis.

 

3. Jennifer Lopez - was an actress first before she invaded the music scene, lipsynched Selena's Dreamin' from the movie SELENA.

 

4. Peter Fonda - sang "I'VE GOT THE LAST LAUGH" from the movie OUTLAW BLUES. although not necessarily a hit.

Spider-man theme song from the Spider-man animated series

 

Spider Man Spider Man

Does whatever a spider can.

Spins a web any size

Catches thieves just like flies.

Look out!

Here comes the Spiderman.

 

Is he strong?

Listen, bud.

He's got radioactive blood.

Can he swing from a thread?

Take a look overhead.

Hey there!

There goes the Spider Man.

 

In the chill of the night

At the scene of a crime

Like a streak of light

He arrives just in time.

 

Spider Man Spider Man

Friendly neighborhood Spider Man.

Wealth and fame

He's ignored

Action is his reward.

Look out, here comes the Spider-Man.

 

In the chill of the night

At the scene of a crime

Like a streak of light

He arrives just in time.

 

Spider Man Spider Man

Friendly neighborhood Spider Man.

Wealth and fame

He's ignored

Action is his reward.

 

To him, life is a great big bang-up.

Whenever there's a hang-up.

You'll find the Spider-Man!
