So, I'm moving on from country music, to movie (and game) music. Lol

Currently, my favourites are;
X-Men First Class; "First Class" By Henry Jackson(?)
The Avengers, by London Music Works
Indiana Jones, Raider's of the lost Arc, by
John Williams
Welcome To Jurassic Park, also by John Williams. Lol
Ghostbusters, by Ray Parker Jr
And Frontier Theme, by Uncle Art.

:D

And I'll probably listen to these on a loop for some time now. Lol

Maybe its because I'm a fan of 80s music and I'm a kid of the 80s so I have to go with GTA Vice City. Sure turn on any RL 80s radio station and hear pretty much the same thing but this is a sound track topic and I think it has one of the best. The Witcher 3 has a very good one too.


Edit: Besides the classics....Indiana Jones, Star Wars, JP ECT. The original Resident Evil sound track was good. Also throw in any Vietnam Era movie. They always have some of the best songs in those

Partial to old stuff from the 60's:
Lalo Schifrin's Mission Impossible really has stood the test of time.
Monty Norman's James Bond Theme is instantly recognizable - and it has Trinidadian roots to boot.

So jazzy spy music is my thing.

Nasty you, not using spoiler tags with such a big bunch of video embeds.

Blade Runner I like a lot too. And there's an excellent remake of that tune too around:

Manticore

Manticore
Star Trek First Contact

Perfect Storm

Those are two good movie soundtracks, in my opinion.

There is so much to choose from.

Pretty much anything by Thomas Newman...

This is one of the most moving pieces of music I've ever heard:
Road To Perdition OST - Road To Chicago
[video=youtube_share;p6IeFLgHj3Q]https://youtu.be/p6IeFLgHj3Q[/video]

...this isn't too far behind:
Meet Joe Black OST - Whisper To A Thrill
[video=youtube_share;qNbaRiZJJQo]https://youtu.be/qNbaRiZJJQo[/video]

Currently enjoying the Passengers OST, IMO the music fits the film perfectly:
[video=youtube_share;UAasQZ_0rLE]https://youtu.be/UAasQZ_0rLE[/video]

Here's a brilliant soundtrack - Moon by Clint Mansell.
[video=youtube_share;_lAfMT5FIZE]https://youtu.be/_lAfMT5FIZE[/video]

Aliens OST by James Horner
Haunting...
[video=youtube_share;1THetfsyzvw]https://youtu.be/1THetfsyzvw[/video]

Man Of Steel OST by Hans Zimmer
Powerful...

Wow, I was expecting a few responses, mainly so I can listen to them.

Now I have too many to listen too!

I also forgot to add, I'm quite fond of some of the 2012 XCOM soundtrack.

Transformers (1) had a pretty good soundtrack too.
