Music in the Movies pt. 1

Posted over 3 years ago
It's hard to use music well in the movies. So, I'm on a mission to seek out clips of movies in which the music is used perfectly.For my first clip, I'm breaking my own rule here and posting a clip from a TV show first thing because this song popped up in my shuffle and I realized I can't hear it now without thinking of Tim and Dawn.The Yazoo song is perfect for this, even more so that it's used as just part of the party music. The Robbie Williams song is also used well.So here it is, Effective Usage of Music in the Movies TV Example 1 from the UK version of The Office, Christmas Special.

  1. I'm a Believer says hella funny and an excellent example...the scene with her walking down the hall was soooo classic I almost got teary eyed. So where is Example 2?

  2. Torch says I nominate "The Sting" Great old music that fits the era. There are people who posulate that the soundtrack is so recognizeable because when the music is playing, there is little to no dialogue. I'm a big fan of it.

  3. nightowl13 says Example 2 is coming as soon as I figure out what it is. Excellent, thanks for the recommendation, I have never seen The Sting. I'll have to get on that.
