    I think number one is spot on, personally. Would have put Fight the Power a few more numbers up though :)

    One that I love is in Kill Bill Vol 1 in the animated section where O-Ren's parents are killed. The bit where her mum is stabbed on the bed, and the music rises as the blood doplets pour down as rain. A moment of sheer brilliance.

    Good shout. We also loved Tom Cruise's dance in Tropic Thunder - but couldn't find the vid anywhere.

    Apocalypse Now should have two entries - The Doors "The End" and the classical song in the Napalm bombing. Not the most pleasant but pretty epic

    I thought the song at the end of crash by coldplay should have been mentioned in the list or even the song at the end of donnie darko called mad world.

    Agree witn many, but some a bit hard to reach...how about "Crying" from "Mulholland Drive"? Can't get much more visuauditory than that.

    What about a top 40 of songs that use samples from moves? There's some great ones out there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVxK8z7zQsE from Ferris Bueller http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIPfQ-HtYeM from Shaolin & Wu Tang and loads more.

    If we are talking Star Wars then for me it is "The Asteroid Field" from Empire Strikes Back. It is my all time favourite piece of movie score because to me it is a musical adrenalin rush that fits perfectly with the scene. Pleased to see Shaun Of The Dead and Back To The Future so high up the list too!

    What, nothing from 'The Graduate'? Shocking.

    I agree with geezo, "Crying" being left off is a travesty. And if you like "Under the Milky Way" in Donnie Darko then don't watch the director's cut; it gets relegated to a scene an hour earlier in the film in which it's being played over a car radio and is barely audible over the dialogue.

    Umm... With regard to "A Clockwork Orange"; that's not Beethoven's 9th. It's Rossini's "The Thieving Magpie." Great scene though.

    My favourite movie music moment of the last few years, is Rebekah del Rio miming to her own track, a Spanish rendition of Roy Orbison's "Crying" in the eerie theatre sequence from David Lynch's "Mulholland Drive"...it appears I'm not alone in that.

    I actually have 2. one is the Michael Mann's Last of the Mohicans when Hawkeye and his kin chase down Maqua to the musical score. My favorite also comes from a Michael Mann Film, Manhunter as In-a-gadda-da-vida plays while the FBI is about to charge in after the tooth fairy. When William Petersen crashes through the glass during the crescendo, it is pure gold.
