Pictures) Sometimes, another way to enjoy a movie has nothing to do with sitting in a theater. Instead, it might have you sitting in traffic, singing along with the radio on full blast. But which songs written for movies are truly the greatest of all time? Below, we rank the greatest songs made for movies. To be clear on the parameters: We’re excluding songs written independent of the movie and only added to the movie’s soundtrack after their creation. (Believe it or not, Seal’s “Kiss From a Rose” wasn’t actually made for Batman Forever!) We’re also excluding songs from movie musicals, because not only do many songs originate for the stage but it’s also kind of cheating when you think about it. With that in mind, these are the songs that made some of our favorite movies so unforgettable. 35. Aaliyah, “Try Again” (Romeo Must Die, 2000) (Image credit: Warner Bros.) When the late pop/R&B singer Aaliyah landed her first movie role, opposite kung fu star Jet Li in the romantic action-drama Romeo Must Die, she got to work right away on the soundtrack before even shooting the movie. Originally conceived as an inspirational anthem, “Try Again” was rewritten to be a love song to better suit the film, which tells of star-crossed lovers who hail from warring crime families. Innovative in its blend of hip-hop and R&B with electronic instrumentation, “Try Again” is both far ahead of its time and the encapsulation of Aaliyah’s woefully short career. 34. Queen, “Princes of the Universe” (Highlander, 1986) (Image credit: 20th Century Studios) In the epic fantasy film Highlander, Christopher Lambert plays an immortal swordsman who battles his rival for centuries, their blood feud climaxing in late 20th century New York City. Queen frontman Freddie Mercury wrote the movie’s theme song “Princes of the Universe” (lifted from its original working title), and though it never charted in any market anywhere, it retains notoriety as one of the few times Queen ever flirted with heavy metal artistry. At the very least, it makes you want to pick up a sword and look into the eyes of your sworn enemy and declare: There can only be one. 33. Lustra, “Scotty Doesn’t Know” (EuroTrip, 2004) (Image credit: DreamWorks Pictures) 32. The Wonders, “That Thing You Do!” (That Thing You Do!, 1996) (Image credit: 20th Century Studios) Sign up for the Total Film Newsletter Bringing all the latest movie news, features, and reviews to your inbox 31. Chad Kroeger, “Hero” (Spider-Man, 2002) (Image credit: Sony Pictures Releasing) When superhero movies first rose to power in the early 21st century, post-grunge was still the rock subgenre du jour. That’s how Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger and Saliva’s Josey Scott teamed up for “Hero,” written and recorded for Sam Raimi’s 2002 superhero smash hit Spider-Man. In defiance to expectations, the song’s lyrics avoid explicit mention of spiders and webs (leave it to emo band Dashboard Confessional to pick up this slack in the sequel) and instead emphasize on more old school heroics, in its military drumming and invocation of flying eagles. Though memorable for being a Spider-Man song, “Hero” is universal as the anthem for anyone who understands what it means to sacrifice for a greater good. 30. Matt Monro, “On Days Like These” (The Italian Job, 1969) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) 29. Billie Eilish, “What Was I Made For?” (Barbie, 2023) (Image credit: Warner Bros.) 28. Jackie Chan, “Hero Story” (Police Story, 1985) (Image credit: Golden Harvest) It may surprise anyone outside Asia to learn this fact, but Jackie Chan is a celebrated actorandsinger in his native Hong Kong who releases music for almost all his movies. Among his most famous songs is still “Hero Story,” a Cantonese-language pop rock tune about fearless heroism against overwhelming odds. It’s an appropriate song for his immortal action blockbuster Police Story, which stars Chan as a death-defying Hong Kong policeman who seeks to arrest a major crime boss. If you ever need to foot chase after gangsters in highway traffic, “Hero Story” is the song you want to queue up. 27. Will Smith, “Men in Black” (Men in Black, 1997) (Image credit: Sony Pictures Releasing) Before he became a movie star, Will Smith came to fame as a rapper alongside producer DJ Jazzy Jeff. But in 1997, the “Fresh Prince” went solo with his stupid catchy theme song for the sci-fi summer blockbuster Men in Black, which Smith co-starred with Tommy Lee Jones. With buttery-smooth lyrics (sung in character as his Agent J) and inspired riffing over Patrice Rushen’s “Forget Me Nots,” Smith makes the job of policing space aliens sound like the coolest gig in the galaxy. “Men in Black” makes you want to put on a black suit and Ray-Bans and walk, and dance, like you own the place. 26. Karen O and Ezra Koenig, “The Moon Song” (Her, 2013) (Image credit: Warner Bros.) 25. Dolly Parton, “9 to 5” (9 to 5, 1980) (Image credit: 20th Century Studios) 24. Aimee Man, “Save Me” (Magnolia, 1999) (Image credit: New Line Cinema) 23. Huey Lewis & The News, “The Power of Love” (Back to the Future, 1985) (Image credit: Universal Pictures) 22. Coolio feat. LV, “Gangsta’s Paradise” (Dangerous Minds, 1995) (Image credit: Buena Vista Pictures Distribution) In an instance of a movie’s song eclipsing the movie itself, Coolio and LV’s collab track “Gangsta’s Paradise” is anything but a pleasant escape. In the song, Coolio laments life in rough urban neighborhoods, being “the kind of G that little homies wanna be like” despite the reality that he maybe won’t live to see 25. (Coolio actually died in 2022, at age 59.) As for the movie, it stars Michelle Pfeiffer playing LouAnne Johnson, a real-life U.S. Navy veteran who worked as an inner-city high school teacher and used her military background to straighten up her students. The song’s ghostly vocals and overall brutality has afforded it lasting life in the mainstream consciousness, while Dangerous Minds has faded from memory as a footnote in Pfeiffer’s filmography. 21. Bee Gees, “Stayin’ Alive” (Saturday Night Fever, 1977) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) Easily the Bee Gees’ most popular song and one of the greatest disco anthems of all time, “Stayin’ Alive” was written and recorded for the John Travolta vehicle Saturday Night Fever. Despite its ubiquitous presence in wedding party playlists, the song is not actually about celebration but survival in crime-ridden New York City. (Funny enough, the Bee Gees were far away in a Parisian village when they wrote it.) Still, nothing about its grim contents have stopped “Staying Alive’” from summoning everyone in earshot to boogie down on the dance floor, its upbeat tempo and groovy guitar funk inviting all to do their best Travolta impersonations. 20. Barbara Streisand, “The Way We Were” (The Way We Were, 1973) (Image credit: Columbia Pictures) Good love songs don’t have to be happy. Sometimes the best ones are about love that’s lost forever. Barbara Streisand’s Oscar-winner “The Way We Were,” made for the 1973 Sydney Pollack movie is about such love – a love that didn’t last despite everyone’s best efforts. Sung from the perspective of her character Katie Morosky, a political activist in a strained marriage with a writer (Robert Redford), “The Way We Were” turned around Streisand’s career and later defined it, being one of her most successful songs in her entire career. 19. Elvis Presley, “Can’t Help Falling in Love” (Blue Hawaii, 1961) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) At the apex of his career, actor/rock star Elvis Presley made music for his own movies with the most famous being “Can’t Help Falling in Love.” Written and recorded for the 1961 romantic-comedy Blue Hawaii, where Presley stars as an ex-soldier eager to start a chill life surfing all day, Presley belts out this immortal tribute to love and its irresistible grasp over the narrator. With angelic backup vocalists, lyrics that paint Hawaii’s stunning natural scenery, and an easygoing sound that feels like a dream, “Can’t Help Falling in Love” shows how much true love can feel like paradise. 18. Ray Parker Jr., “Ghostbusters” (Ghostbusters, 1984) (Image credit: Columbia Pictures) 17. Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth, “See You Again” (Furious 7, 2015) (Image credit: Universal Pictures) 16. The Goo Goo Dolls, “Iris” (City of Angels, 1998) (Image credit: Warner Bros.) 15. Bruce Springsteen, “Streets of Philadelphia” (Philadelphia, 1993) (Image credit: TriStar Pictures) 14. B.J. Thompson, “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on My Head” (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, 1969) (Image credit: 20th Century Studios) While audiences of a certain age may know it best from Spider-Man 2, B.J. Thompson’s “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on My Head” actually comes from the iconic 1969 Western epic Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. With its vaudeville-style instrumentation, many people – including movie co-star Robert Redford – thought the song was the wrong choice for a gritty gunslinger picture. But director George Roy Hill clearly saw something in the juxtaposition, and he was right. Playing during a break in the film, the song is heard when Paul Newman’s Butch takes the beautiful Etta (Katharine Ross) on an afternoon bicycle ride, creating one of the most romantic scenes of all time – and a point of tragedy when the outlaw lifestyle inevitably catches up with him. 13. Simple Minds, “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” (The Breakfast Club, 1985) (Image credit: Universal Pictures) 12. Liza Minelli/Frank Sinatra, “New York, New York” (New York, New York, 1977) (Image credit: United Artists) 11. R.E.M., “The Great Beyond” (Man on the Moon, 1999) (Image credit: Universal Pictures) Made for the Andy Kaufman biopic starring Jim Carrey, R.E.M.’s alt-rock tune “The Great Beyond” is all about untouchable genius and the alienation it fosters in a person’s life. With loose references to Kaufman’s comedy career mixed with impossible and even cosmic imagery (“There’s a new planet in the solar system/There is nothing up my sleeve”), “The Great Beyond” is a song that strives to imagine what it takes to reach for the stars – even if it comes at the cost of human understanding. 10. Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, “Shallow” (A Star is Born, 2018) (Image credit: Warner Bros. Pictures) There have been many film versions of A Star is Born, but there is only one “Shallow.” A unique blend of rock, country, and folk, the acclaimed song contains the thoughts and feelings of the movie’s main characters – Jack (Bradley Cooper), a major musician, and his wife Ally (Lady Gaga), an aspiring singer – who interrogate if they’re actually happy and if they’re prepared to go somewhere deeper. A monster hit that collected trophies from both the Academy Awards and the Golden Globes, “Shallow” showed the combined artistry of Cooper as a filmmaker and Gaga as a musician were anything but. 9. Adele, “Skyfall” (Skyfall, 2012) (Image credit: Sony Pictures Releasing) 8. Kendrick Lamar and SZA, “All the Stars” (Black Panther, 2018) (Image credit: Marvel Studios) WhenMarvel Studioswas in production of its monumental superhero epic Black Panther, director Ryan Coogler worked with Grammy-winner Kendrick Lamar to produce a unique soundtrack experience. In an album jam-packed with incredible bangers, one stands tall: “All the Stars,” which plays at the movie’s end credits. Lamar, along with SZA, draw upon the cosmic origins of Wakanda’s rich blessings to stargaze, to question their place in the multiverse as they ask the ancestors for guidance. Though the song contains autobiographical allusions to Lamar’s career in the music industry, the lines blur to also tell of T’Challa, the king of Wakanda and the Black Panther, whose noble duty to represent his people can overwhelm even the mightiest avenger. Heavy is the head that wears the vibranium crown. 7. Survivor, “Eye of the Tiger” (Rocky III, 1982) (Image credit: MGM) We have Queen to thank for Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger.” As the story goes, Sylvester Stallone hoped to use Queen’s “Another One Bites the Dust” for Rocky III. But after they denied his request, Stallone turned to another band, Survivor, to make something gritty and pulsating for Rocky’s vengeful bout against Clubber Lang (Mr. T). After receiving an early copy of the movie’s training montages, Survivor guitarist Frankie Sullivan and keyboardist Jim Peterik sourced their lyrics from the movie’s dialogue and delivered an all-time banger that has inspired countless people to get out of bed and hit the gym. 6. Simon & Garfunkel, “Mrs. Robinson” (The Graduate, 1967) (Image credit: Embassy Pictures) 5. Eminem, “Lose Yourself” (8 Mile, 2002) (Image credit: Universal Pictures) Just for a second, forget all those “mom’s spaghetti” memes. With its aggressive instrumentation and Eminem’s palpable fury heard in every bar, “Lose Yourself” – the first hip-hop song to ever win the Oscar for Best Original Song – is both a sublime summary of Eminem himself and the movie it was written for: 8 Mile, itself loosely based on the rapper’s life growing up in Detroit. An inspirational track sans cartoonish mawkishness, “Lose Yourself” is a song deserving of ear-bleeding decibels to fire up the fighting spirit and awaken the B-Rabbit in all of us. 4. Kenny Loggins, “Danger Zone” (Top Gun, 1986) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) 3. Bob Dylan, “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” (Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid, 1973) (Image credit: MGM) 2. Aerosmith, “I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing” (Armageddon, 1998) (Image credit: Buena Vista Pictures Distribution) 1. Céline Dion, “My Heart Will Go On” (Titanic, 1997) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) In a way, Céline Dion’s tender hit “My Heart Will Go On” was made for the most cynical of reasons. For Titanic writer/director James Cameron, he resisted ending his movie (which tells a fictional love story set against the real-world tragedy of the Titanic disaster) with a pop song, believing it to be inappropriate. He only agreed when he realized it would calm down anxious studio executives who wanted more guarantees that his expensive movie could be a hit. For singer Celine Dion, she was weary at doing yet another movie song (after Beauty and the Beast and Falling Into You) until her husband convinced her to do it anyway.
