How cool. It's in my top 10 films. Only non-vocal film soundtrack I have ever bought.

Actually, to be honest, I can't really remember (as in really remember) the soundtrack to any film (well, ok, Sound of Music maybe), but I can say, "Yeah, I seem to remember that the music to Pulp Fiction was good, but I'm buggered if I can actually remember any of the songs."

What do we want?
A cure for Alzheimers
When do we want it?
Fish and chips

some that come to mind

great choice - Night on Earth - brilliant film, brilliant soundtrack.
Requiem For Dream - Clint Mansell's second soundtrack - his first for Pi was stunning as well
Blade Runner - Vangelis
Blow Up - Herbie Hancock
Natural Born Killers - Nine Inch Nails
Trainspotting - (when I worked at EMI I lobbied A&R to get Bowie to re-do the soundtrack in a Reznor-esque Natural Born Killers way - proposal was sent but he didn't go for it - I still think dialogue, Bowie, classics would have made a stunning album... )
and an odd one for me... Highlander - Queen

Top Gun. Every time

The music in Brave recently was fabulous as well! Some beautiful Celtic music.

Nice NorthernLad!

I don't even want to start on the sound tracts I like, so many but do like the music from 'Almost Famous'...I especially love this clip from the movie. I want to be on that bus, love the little hippy chick with the round glasses, lol!
