There are literally hundreds of movie soundtracks out there that have touched the hearts of millions of people, making them cry, punch the air with joy or throw their popcorn on the floor and walk out in anger but how on earth can one of those acoustic guitars really make so many different sounds? What are the best movie tracks of all time?

Wizard Of Oz

This one has got to be the best musical of all time which is why it is on the list. Something that was very big for the time was the fact that the Wizard Of Oz was mostly featured in colour, something that was huge for 1939. Although initially the film only made a minor profit it has since gone on to become one of the most loved and most watched films of all time. It is songs such as Over the Rainbow, Yellow Brick Road and If I Only Had a Heart that make this film so loveable.

Jaws

John Williams could easily have his own category on this article but Jaws has to be one of his most recognised and early pieces of work. This was what really kick started his career and although Spielberg has initially laughed at the main piece of music he later went on to say that the film would have only been half as successful without the input of Williams.

Back To The Future

This is on the list because no matter how many times I watch this film it will never get old and the music always makes it better. Alan Silvestri did a fantastic job on the music along with Huey Lewis and the News with the two tracks “The Power of Love” and “Back in Time”. The main theme is one of the most recognised in the world that is certain.

There are other films that need a mention such as Star Wars, Grease and Indiana Jones. What Is The Real Secret Behind A Great Tune? Well use a variety of instruments like drum kits and use those guitar amplifiers.
