When I saw Cara was doing another inspired blogathon I just had to contribute. Here is my offering to her ‘Song and Screen’ series, where I choose my favourite eight uses of songs in films.
My God these make me happy.
Good day, friends! Guess what? I’ve got another guest edition of Song and Screen for you! This one is coming atcha from the awesome Mr. Alex Raphael! If you guys know me, I’m sure you know Alex, too. He truly has a little bit of everything on his blog, so if you haven’t already, definitely pop over and say hello! Anyway, here are a few songs Alex can’t hear without thinking of movies!

Great selections, Alex. Especially Reservoir Dogs. Just wow. That song.
Can anyone hear the song and not think of the film? ha. Any others you’d have liked included?
Hmmmm. Maybe Pretty Woman, but from Warm Bodies. Maybe also Live and Let Die from American Hustle.
Not seen the first, but must be an interesting take. The second is a great shout. Lawrence really is a great actress. I did think about putting it in, but have heard it a lot of other times in other contexts that the pull wasn’t as strong as for others. I do still love at her “space oven” comment haha.
Yeah. The space oven business is awesome.
And Warm Bodies is a clever take on zombies and an even more clever take on Romeo and Juliet. It has its flaws, but on balance I think you’d like it.
Thanks for the recommendation 🙂
ALEX!! I’M HERE!! Catch-up begins NOW!! Lol. I’ll probably have to spread it out since I’m so very far behind, but I promise I’ll get all caught up!! Thank you again for doing this!! A brilliant list, my friend. 🙂
So happy to be part of it. I really did have a good think.
Awesome, Alex. I see we have a few in common. Great to see ‘Under Your Spell’ in here. One of the reasons I picked up Drive’s stellar soundtrack. Well done 🙂
🙂 I’ve lost count how many times I’ve listened to it
