Check out our featured song: "Empty Apartment" by Title Holder! th-cam.com/video/Oks1vK_8Lxc/w-d-xo.html
Once again not a single black movie mentioned.
Everything you guys do is white washed
I think the song Lindsay Lohan’s band sings in Freaky Friday should’ve been near the top and definitely on the list!
“Ultimate” is definitely one of the best movie songs! Tragic that it wasn’t included on the list.
It might not have been because it's a real song from an Australian band.
Absolutely. In fact I looked for it in this video. Perhaps we need a "top 21" title.
Yessss
It’s in her Top 10 fake song list but it’s not a fake song.
“Remember Me” from Coco. A song that enhances the story throughout and changes meaning in the most beautiful way right before the movie’s climax.
"On the Dark Side" is a song by fictional American rock band Eddie and the Cruisers, it spent five weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Rock Tracks chart. John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band served as the real-life, officially uncredited stand-ins for the fictional Cruisers on the recording (as they did for the rest of the soundtrack album)
A clear miss in these rankings
I knew all of the lyrics to Zach's Song in "School of Rock", proof that I watched the movie repeatedly as a child!
Good song was the SHIZZ!!
I still love quoting the movie, since I first saw it back in 2003
man, I own the soundtrack
I have to say the entire "Music and Lyrics" soundtrack is a joy. "Meaningless Kiss" is sooo close to Careless Whisper (the movie is a riff on a band that is obviously Wham) and Way Back into Love is a sweet pop ballad. Plus who can fail to laugh at Love Autopsy?
The song they wrote for Cora, Way Back Into Love is beautiful, as is Don't Write Me Off
I have so much love for this movie. All the songs are great.
Agreed! Love that movie and the whole soundtrack.
Pop goes my Heart!!
I really wanted Don't Write Me Off to be on the list!
The Matt Damon cameo for Scotty Doesn't Know is still amazing
What about:
1) Eddie and the Cruisers (1983)-On The Dark Side and Tender Years (actually performed by John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown band) became Top 40 hits
2) Bandslam (2009)-I Would Give Anything I Own was actually an old Bread song, but Vanessa Hudgens absolutely gave a stellar performance on the song.
3) The Rocker (2008)-Promised Land-written for the movie is a banger
4) Get Crazy (1983) The Blues Had a Baby and They Named It Rock and Roll-written by Muddy Waters and performed by BB King lookalike Bill Henderson is just awesome. I'm Not Going to Take It No More, performed by Lori Eastside gives Joan Jett vibes.
Bandslam definitely should've got an honorable mention. The song I would've chosen from the movie is Someone to fall back on, the ballad Aly sings. Also I just assumed they were singing the *NSYNC version of Everything I own.
The rocker soundtrack could have been this lists top 10
Yeah! 👏 here for Eddie and the Cruisers On the Dark Side. Don't know how they missed that one.
Came here to say the same thing. My wife and I just finished watching the video and I was irked that Eddie and The Cruisers On the Dark Side wasn’t here.
Thank you, these songs are way better than some on this list
You did forget 2 gems. Steel Dragon’s Blood Pollution. They play it at our hockey games! 😂 and from freaky Friday / either Take Me Away or Ultimate. Both are bangers. ❤
"That thing you do" needs to be higher, like number 2!
I would add the “This is Spinal Tap” soundtrack (1984), fun songs like “Big Bottom” and “Stonehenge”
Glaring omission
I agree with this and raise you the songs from "A Mighty Wind." There is a lot of songs in that movie (including the original members of Spinal Tap as a folk trio instead). Plus Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara singing "A Kiss At the End of the Rainbow" is just magical.
The music from "Begin Again" (2014), Keira Knightley sings very good!!!! The esthetic, the lyrics, and the story is very good. And Mark Ruffalos is a great actor.
"A step you can't take back", "Tell me if you want go home" and "Lost Stars" performed by Adam Levine.
"Sing Street" is so underrated, it definitely should have been nominated for Best Original Song.
AGREED!!!!
I feel like no one knows about this movie, so I was stoked to see it made the top 10!
School Of Rock is still so good and funny. I still like
quoting that movie in my daily life
“3 small words” and “Pretend to be nice” are actually on my Spotify playlist 😂❤ (also the Cheetah Girls were clearly snubbed 😅)
Josie & co. are also on my Spotify playlist.
I cheered when Pop! Goes My Heart made the list. I just watched that video for the bazillionth time the other day and it was the first song that came to mind when I saw this video’s title. I love that movie!
I love Music and Lyrics so much.
Cora's 'single Way Back Into Love is so beautiful it should've been a real single😊
Josie and the Pussycats was a great movie. So underrated.
It’s absolutely brilliant
Pretend to be Nice was on a constant loop after I watched the movie when it first came out.
Never seen it. Liked the song. I'll check it out!
The Hex Girls deserve a spot
Awesome to see That Thing You do and Stand Out and What Dreams Are Made Of on the list because they are amazing songs ❤️❤️❤️
I had NO idea Falling Slowly wasn't a real song. Absolutely beautiful
That Thing You Do SLAPS.
I Wonder whatever happened to The Oneders. Lmao.
very happy to see A Goofy Movie and Scott Pilgrim given some love...but how the hell can you do this list without Can't Fight The Moonlight from Coyote Ugly or Flashlight from Pitch Perfect 2?
Love that “Grow Old with You” from The Wedding Singer was included! It was a great one!
“Tonight is What It Means to Be Young” and “I can dream about you” from Streets of Fire
"A Star is Born" from 1976 with Barbra Sreisand and Kris Kristofferson had an original song that was just as big as "Shallow." It's called "Evergreen." Beautiful, beautiful song that was a blockbuster.
Evergreen was my parents wedding song
Lindsay Lohan’s band tune in Freaky Friday.
Which one? From the beginning or the wedding reception in the finale? 🤔 For the record I enjoyed both of them. 😉
@@brianagrzybowski4734 The one where Anna sneaks out of the rehearsal dinner to perform...Take Me Away
@@NYChica23that one is so good but i prefer ultimate you 🤭 either song should have made the list
oh yeah, Take Me Away was amazing, although that was a cover of a real song, which did not have Anna's guitar solo.
Mighty Wind should have a song on this list, as well as Grace Of My Heart, which is full of great songs.
Did you completely ignore "Coyote Ugly?"
Never heard the Zenon song, but it immediately brought to mind the insanely catchy “Eep, Opp, Ork, Ah-ah!” From the Jetsons.
"Try Everything" from "Zootopia"
Honorable mentions
"The Zing Song" - "Hotel Transylvania" (2012)
"BBC" - "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery" (1997)
“Nach Mera Hero” - “Eternals” (2021)
"Be a Star" - "Life-Size" (2000)
"Good Tonight" - "The Bad Guys" (2022)
"Cuban Pete" - "The Mask" (1994)
"Peaches" - "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" (2023)
"I'm a Hex Girl" - "Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost" (1999)
"The Song That United the World" - "Bill and Ted Face the Music" (2020)
"Power of the Night" - "Critters" (1986)
"Everything is Awesome" - "The LEGO Movie" Franchise (2014-)
"Who is Your Favorite Fearless Hero?" - "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish" (2022)
Good list! I forgot about some of those.
I KNEW you all were young, but 8 years old when Josie and the Pussycats came out? That makes you 20 now. Which explains why you miss so much great older stuff.
Two things: A Star is Born with Lady Gaga is the 4th remake, not the 3rd.
And of course you totally missed the very obvious movie, Rock Star, starring Jennifer Aniston and Mark Walberg.
Fourth remake? So there are five versions of A Star is Born?
… Oh wait, there was a Bollywood remake, so I guess that counts.
I was expecting to see Rock Star on this list too. Disappointing.
I can't believe you ignored all of the Steel Dragons songs from "Rock Star" - especially Stand Up And Shout and We All Die Young. Awesome tunes, awesome film
That Thing You You Do could have been a hit back in the 60’s
I'm disappointed Take Me Away from Freaky Friday wasn't on this list, or any Cheetah Girls songs
YAASSSSS! I loved Once. It broke my heart, but I walked down the aisle to Falling Slowly
If "Husavik" had really represented Iceland in Eurovision, they might have won for the first time. That song is magnificent.
I know this list focused more on pop type tunes, but Steel Dargon's We All Die Young from Rock Star is a phenomenal song. Every Steel Dragon song in that movie is amazing.
I agree. Stand Up and Shout should’ve been on the list.
Amen to that.. All of the original songs in that movie were great.. Still hear "STAND UP AND SHOUT" at sporting events when they want some crowd noise.
“Flashlight” from Pitch Perfect 2 is on my playlist right now. Such a pretty song
The performance of that song in the movie gives me chills.
@@JT-lp9ng me too
Based on the comments, it is clear that we need a part 2!!
I second this!
For people over 35 especially.
"When it comes to one hit wonders, you can't get much bigger than this" which is why it is way down at #10? "That Thing You Do" is top 2 for sure, IMO. Also, "Dance With Me Tonight" is as good as 3/4ths of this list.
Maybe I am mistaken but I was pretty sure "Falling Slowly" was on an album by Hansard's band The Frames before it appeared in the movie.
"Pretend to Be Nice" was also written by the late, great, Adam Schlesinger. Mike Viola (Who sang "That Thing You Do") wrote songs for the movie Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, whose omission here is rather perplexing as it it a movie all about a fake music artist and has a couple of absolute killer cuts in the title song and the movie closing "Wild Ride."
I'd also give The Boss some love for his song "Light of Day" from the movie of the same name starring Michael J. Fox and Joan Jett as siblings in a band.
A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow from A Mighty Wind. All of the songs from This is Spinal Tap. Music was solid.
Any song from “A Mighty Wind”. That movie is spectacular and hilarious!
Excuse me. What about Take Me Away from Freaky Friday? That song slaps
Special mention for all the Beatles parodies by late Neil Innes, written for The Rutles, Beatle parody comedy, written by Eric Idle of Monty Python and featuring a disguised cameo by late George Harrison, whose film company Handmade Films produced it. Cheese and Onions, Ouch! , Piggy In The Middle, etc. Check them out. ❤️😆
Just rewatched the Rutles last week. The entire movie and the sequel are free on TH-cam.
While I’m glad That Thing You Do was on there, I wish it were higher, and that other songs from the film were listed. Adam Schlesinger was a genius who wrote music in the styles of several different genres of the time period the movie was set.
That Thing U Do is incredible❤ Yes, Adam also wrote most of the great songs on the 'Music&Lyrics' movie soundtrack😊
I love, "I Could Dream About You" from Streets of Fire
Where Peaches by Bowser in The Super Mario Bros Movie.
Streets of Fire, Fire Inc. with Diane Lane.. "Tonight is what it means to be young"
Ok... Falling Slowly and Husavik deserve an higher spot in this chart! ❤
I like music, and this top made me love it even more. Thanks, Rebecca, and a happy saturday night to you as well. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia.
Pop Goes My Heart and its video is brilliant!
My favorite Josie and the Pussycats song is "3 Small Words"
Dujour means friendship!
The whole soundtrack from the movie Sing Street is fantastic. Up was my husband’s and my personal favourite, and even used it for our first dance at our wedding.
Begin Again has an amazing soundtrack. Kiera Knightley’s voice is so stunning and gives the movie real charm. Such a classic.
Thanks for sharing!
"A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow" from A Mighty Wind should be at least number 2 on this list.
"That thing You do" is my favourite. I really want The Wonders to be real band. Also in 60's this could be big hit.
I like how this list pops up for me while on a commercial break watching School of Rock.
Yay to pop goes my heart. I love that song!❤🎉
We need a tv show version too. I love the song from boy meets world written about Eric.
How bout California Dream's own title song. Man! That song gave me LSS when I heard that song altho I was a young metalhead those days.
@@parengthonycastillo4272 Not just the title song! CA Dreams deserves its own Top 10 list!
Really nothing from the movie rockstar with Mark Wahlberg and the band Steel Dragon then there's the band Vesuvius in The Rocker and the music from the Disney movie Lemonade Mouth All great
STREETS OF FIRE (1984) deserves to be here. Both "Nowhere Fast" and "Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young" are rousing rock ballads composed by the great Jim Steinman.
I just commented that! I am so glad I'm not the only one. These still hold up today. And the movie......MUAH......chef's kiss!!!
Not only is Scotty Doesn't Know the best fake song ever - it's my favorite song since 1990 at least. A banger to top all bangers.
I love School of Rock. Jack Black is an awesome actor and singer.
I never comment on these things. But you left off every Christopher guest movie. Five great songs from a mighty wind to choose from. Nothing from waiting for guffman? NOTHING FROM SPINAL TAP???? Are you kidding me right now?????
If “Falling Slowly” is only at number 13, this list needs some severe reshuffling.
Got to give honorable mentions to Fairly Odd Parents’ “Icky Vicky” and “My Shiny Teeth and Me”
I think that would be on its own list, specifically for television
I'm kinda surprised Let it Go was not on the list. While many folks hate it today because it was so overplayed, the fact that is was so overplayed shows how popular it was.
The Tenacious D Soundtrack is awesome as well.
For just fake bands, The Barbusters' cover of Light of Day and the Commitments' cover of Try a Little Tenderness (ironically, the guy from Once is also in the Commitments)
I can't believe "daddy wasn't there" from Austin Powers didn't make this list. That song is catchy as hell. And the songs from over the hedge
I think all the original songs from "Always Be My Maybe" are amazing! The band, Hello Peril feels like an authentic tribute to the early 2000s underground hip hop scene and reminds me of artist like Jurassic 5, Atmosphere and Brother Ali.
I like awarding the list backwards. That Eurovision song deserves to be top 5.
I couldn't stop singing "Drive It Like You Stole It" after watching SING STREET. But there's another film centered around musicians from 1984 (or 1983 maybe) that stars a very young Willem Dafoe, Diana Lane, and Michael Paré called STREETS OF FIRE. "Tonight Is What It Means to Be Young" and "Nowhere Fast" are great tunes from the film but "I Can Dream About You" is the song from STREETS OF FIRE that I still find myself singing decades after the film was released!
Also in the 1st remake of A STAR IS BORN (1954), Judy Garland sings "The Man That Got Away" Its hauntingly beautiful. Yes I am a proud BOOMER!
Eddie and the Cruisers “On the Dark Side” was a legit massive hit that’s been covered a few times since the films. Geez
Not a movie.. but Phineus and Ferb songs were great
I'm not sure if it's a fake song, but We All Die Young from Rockstar was an amazing song!
"Lost Stars" from the movie "Begin Again" starring Mark Ruffalo & Keira Knightley, Hailee Steinfeld & Adam Levine. There were lots of good songs in that movie!!
"On the Dark Side" by fictional American rock band Eddie and the Cruisers Released with the 1983 film “On the Dark Side” - last song in movie.
PLAY JAJA DING DONG!!
That thing you do actually played on the radio. I remember living in California and the radio station KIISS FM played it ALL the time to help promote the movie. I knew thw song by heart before even seeing the movie.
Anything from A Mighty Wind. I have "When You're Next To Me" as the ringtone when my wife calls me
Still missing a bunch. Anything Spinal Tap, 'Man of constant sorrow' from o brother where art thou, "Walk Hard" had a few solid options, "Boats and Hoes" was an instant classic, "The Bodyguard" had some originals like "Run to you" and "I have nothing", "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" also had a few options including "Inside of You", and "African Child" from its sequel "get him to the greek"
First of all Take Me Away from Freaky Friday and second Let's Get Together from the original Parent Trap with Haley Mills both deserve to be on this list.
How could Oscar winner Falling Slowly be so low on the list
Nowhere Fast and Tonight is What it Means to Be Young by Fire Inc. for the movie Streets of Fire are sublime and the movie is phenomenal!
The songs from Hearts Beat Loud are excellent and absolutely belong on this list.
On top of my list are "the flame still burns" and "all over the world" by Strange Fruit from the film Still crazy. One of the best music films ever
I’m glad Josie & the Pussycats finally got some recognition. Such an underrated movie.
Some missing gems and additional wisdom!!!! 'Machinery of Torment' from Metal Lords is an absolute killer tune. 'Prisoner' from The Beat Beneath My Feet. 'Glasgow ( No Place Like Home)' from Wild Rose. I'm not including any of the songs from Once because they are all songs on The Frames and Swell Season albums, so I'm not going to consider these just "Film" songs - but pretty much every single one of them tops this list in addition to 'Falling Slowly'. And a special mention to Daisy Jones and The Six, which could fill this list if it wasn't a series. Also anything from Nativity!, particularly 'One Night, One Moment'. But yeah - Shallow is pretty amazing!
WHAT? NO SPINAL TAP?!?
Also "God Give Me Strength" from Grace of My Heart.
I don’t care that it’s fake, all I know IS I love Shallows. My favorite song ever. I just did my Top 100 Favorite Songs and it’s number one
No songs from 2+ Gether. Dang. That needs to be seen by more people
That’s incredible!
And look, I love Once and Glen and Marketa - BUT - Falling Slowly was on The Frames album 'The Cost' a year before the film came out so it is very difficult to still pretend it is a "fake" song. Without doubt it deserved the Oscar, but when a song was on an album a year before the film was even released then surely the questions have to be asked. And yes it was on their Swell Season Album released later, but the first exact same version was released on an album and should not be on this list.
YOOOO This is such a great list!!! I had never heard of sing street! Although... how did the Pulp Fiction great "Urge Overkill - Girl You'll Be a Woman Soon" not make the list haha
1. I also recommend you to listen: "Dream of Me" by Kirsten Dunst (Movie: Get Over It), "Marian" by Amy Yasbeck and Men un thights by The Merry man singers (Robin Hood Men in thights), "Maria" and "Byul" By Kim Ah Jung (200 Pounds Beauty), "Only Hope" By Mandy Moore ( A walk to Remember), "Way back into Love" By Hugh Grant and Haley Bennett (Music and Lyrics) and "Magic Works" By Jarvis Cocker (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, The Yule Ball song).
2. "Scotty doesnt Know" and "Drive it Like You Stole it" need to be higher
3. I also love the Sister Act songs.
Literally brings tears to my eyes seeing Sing Street get the recognition it deserves!
EVERYTHING IS AWESOMMMMME!!!
Confession: I haven't seen most of these movies. I only clicked for Zach's song from School of Rock.
Y'all forget "LEMONADE MOUTH", "DETERMINATE" and the rest we're pretty good too. Also, I'm glad to see some love going out to"THAT THING YOU DO "!!!
