It think that that's definitely is up there with the best! John Murphy's a fantastic composer.
As an orchestral musician, lots of pieces from the Lord of the Rings are a hell of a lot of fun to play, so this would have to be among my favorites. |

The Twilight saga.
I know a lot of people who don’t watch the films but absolutely love the soundtracks. lol Carter Burwell's score perfectly captures the dark, brooding atmosphere. My favourite piece of his: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxiFtwvXhp4 Plus the soundtracks have introduced me to artists/bands I might not have heard otherwise. My fave song from each film: Iron & Wine - Flightless Bird, American Mouth http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUQOAsq-C2A Lykke Li - Possibility http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rY3XO4q5qzA UNKLE - With You In My Head http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7ozup9q6Xw Aqualung & Lucy Schwartz - Cold http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QygQ-wi6vb4 Christina Perri feat. Steve Kazee - A Thousand Years Part 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Am9rvhUTrpA (the song at the end credits that gets everyone emotional that it's all over *sniff sniff*) Other soundtracks on my ipod: Billy Elliot The Craft (amazing!!!) Grease Kill Bill Vol.1 & 2 Rocky Horror Picture Show South Park the movie (lol) Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street Watchmen |

The Dust Brothers' soundtrack for Fight Club is one I still listen to-disturbing in a chill-out bar way.
And Malcolm Arnolds' Whistle Down the Wind, as well as the brilliance of Flash Harry's Theme from The Belles of St trinians is a fave of mine. |

I like the music from Vertigo. I also like the pieces from Leaving Las Vegas, but the album contains lines of dialogue which some people don't like.
When I was a boy, on our record player a lot was the album from Carousel. If I hear it these days it makes me cry. |
