Bladerunner s/t by Vangelis, especially the closing credits track - incredibly atmospheric
Dead Man s/t by Neil Young
Blues Brothers s/t: Ray Charles, Aretha, Cab Calloway doing 'Minnie the Moocher' (my fave scene from the movie - well, one of them...), James Brown and of course the BBs themselves...
Originally posted by dfm65Hearing aretha sing "you better think" was a great scene for me. I've always liked that song a little bit more then respect.

The soundtrack to 'Garden State' is incredibly good. On that soundtrack, the cover of The Postal Service's 'Such Great Heights' by Iron & Wine is powerful enough to stop you in your tracks and hold you fast and make you remember those things about your past that it took you years to forget.
Here are the lyrics:
i'm thinking it's a sign that the freckles in our eyes
are mirror images and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned
i would like to speculate that god himself did make us into
corresponding shapes like puzzle pieces from the clay
and true, it may seem like a stretch, but its thoughts like this that
catch my troubled head when you're away and i am missing you to death
when you are out there on the road for several weeks of shows and when
you scan the radio, i hope this song will guide you home
they will see us waving from such great heights, "come down now,"
they'll say but everything looks perfect from far away,
"come down now," but we'll stay...
i tried my best to leave this all on your machine but the persistent beat
it sounded thin upon listening
and that frankly will not fly, you will hear the shrillest highs and
lowest lows with the windows down when this is guiding you home.
