Comment:

These are the songs that made the movies just as much as the movies made the songs. Blaxploitation classic [i]Shaft[/i] couldn't exist without the sleek, serpentine orchestral funk of Isaac Hayes' unforgettable theme song. And how far would [i]Ghostbusters[/i] have gotten without Ray Parker, Jr. inspiring millions to shout out, "Who you gonna call?" From the Peter Gabriel hit that came blasting out of John Cusack's boombox in [i]Say Anything[/i] ("In Your Eyes") to the [i]O Brother, Where Art Thou?[/i] tune that spearheaded a full-fledged bluegrass revival ("I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow"), we've roamed through reel after reel to find the [i]real[/i] movie hits that have hit home with film buffs and music maniacs alike down through the decades.
