Your Movie Songs

InformationGeek · March 03, 2010, 04:44:47 PM

After listening to Nostalgia Critic's Top 11 Villian Songs, it made me think about all songs in movies as well. I like a lot of the songs from all types of movies and then I thought about all of you guys. What personally are your favorite songs ever sung in a movie? Now these have to be songs sung by the actual people in the movie, not songs that play in the background. (So no Ghostbusters theme song)

Here's a few favorites of mine:

any song from A MIGHTY WIND. it's supposed to be a pastiche of country/folk music, not a genre I'm really into, but all the songs created for the movie are great.

Kiss At The End Of The Rainbow is one of the best...

My all time favorite villian songs!

WingedSerpent · March 05, 2010, 12:15:42 PM

Here's some of my favorite villian songs

This is from the animated Felix the Cat movie. Starts at about 1:20 in the video. It's about a bunch of Lizard submitting to Mysterio. (Double Spiderman reference)
It's the Duke of Zill.

My one big problem with this song is I wish they had gone a little lighter with the cartoony minion voices and let more of the actual band be heard.

And I want to post the Kubla Kraus song from the Rankin-Bass Jack Frost special, but I can't find one. Stupid Family Channel cuts the song from their showing of it.
