How about "The Greatest Rock n Roll Swindle" Or this one, which at one point was the soundtrack of my live, "Bedtime for Democracy" by The Dead Kennedy's.

What? Nobody mentioned Total Recall? The entire movie had kick ass music, but the opening theme is still one of my favorites.

I wonder what correlation there is between nostalgic value (or other non-musicality factor) and preference for this kind of question.

Ok, if you want the MASTER of soundtracks, how can you dislike anything done by John William...?
Literally, he's composed the music that defined my generation. Almost every successful movie that hasn't sucked, has had either John Williams, or Jerry Goldsm... involved. :)

I quite like the medley they did, along with the video in the background. Pretty cool.

Surprised no one has mentioned anything from LOTR. I have the soundtracks from all three movies - no real clear favourites though most are just simply immense.

From "The Basketball Diaries", by Jim Carroll. Worth watching if you have never seen it.
So many more, but that one sticks in my head. Writing your own soundtrack for your own autobiographical movie is a bit extreme.
Lyrics for the song:
Quote
People who Died - Jim Carroll
Teddy sniffing glue he was 12 years old
Fell from the roof on East Two-nine
Cathy was 11 when she pulled the plug
On 26 reds and a bottle of wine
Bobby got leukemia, 14 years old
He looked like 65 when he died
He was a friend of mine
Chorus:
Those are people who died, died
Those are people who died, died
Those are people who died, died
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Herbie pushed Tony from the Boys' Club roof
Tony thought that his rage was just some goof
But Herbie sure gave Tony some bitchen proof
Hey, Herbie said, Tony, can you fly?
But Tony couldn't fly . . . Tony died
Brian got busted on a narco rap
He beat the rap by rattin' on some bikers
He said, hey, I know it's dangerous,
but it sure beats Riker's
But the next day he got offed
by the very same biker
G-berg and Georgie let their gimmicks go rotten
So they died of hepatitis in upper Manhattan
Sly in Vietnam took a bullet in the head
Bobby OD'd on Drano on the night that he was wed
They were two more friends of mine
Two more friends that died
I miss 'em–they died
Mary took a dry dive from a hotel room
Bobby hung himself from a cell in the tombs
Judy jumped in front of a subway train
Eddie got slit in the jugular vein
And Eddie, I miss you more than all the others,
And I salute you brother
This song is for you my brother
Teddy sniffing glue he was 12 years old
Fell from the roof on East Two-nine
Cathy was 11 when she pulled the plug
On 26 reds and a bottle of wine
Bobby got leukemia, 14 years old
He looked like 65 when he died
He was a friend of mine
Chorus:
Those are people who died, died
Those are people who died, died
Those are people who died, died
Those are people who died, died
They were all my friends, and they died
Herbie pushed Tony from the Boys' Club roof
Tony thought that his rage was just some goof
But Herbie sure gave Tony some bitchen proof
Hey, Herbie said, Tony, can you fly?

What a life…

What a depressing song, judging from the lyrics at least… haven't listened to the tune, but sheesh.

Like I said, it is autobiographical. That makes it even more depressing, no?
The song is rock with a bit of punk styling. Catchy tune, actually.

That deserves an honorable mention. I almost forgot about news themes.
Al Jazeera's has to be my favorite. This person dropped it on a BBC countdown video. Quite nice.
But who can forget this?
