There are many reasons that we love soundtracks, but the most important one is that they make us feel again those strong emotions that the songs brought out in us when we heard them paired with the on-screen characters that we love, hate, or simply identify with. In what would otherwise be a traditional, happy-ever-after movie ending with a couple running away from her wedding to another man so they could be together, becomes a moment of brooding apprehension thanks to the addition of a haunting song by Simon and Garfunkel which lets us know that the escaping couple both find themselves thinking about the immense repercussions of their astonishing actions as they ride away together on a city bus. In some cases, the addition of a specific song can change the audienceвЂ™s entire interpretation of a movie moment. But play the strong, fast beat of a Bee Gees song all about surviving city life in the background and we instantly feel this manвЂ™s cockiness and his surety in his surroundings, and understand the scene without the character having to say a word. Film a guy in polyester pants walking down a city street with only the sounds of the city around him, and we as an audience arenвЂ™t sure what to feel.

Because music is so intensely evocative, it deepens the emotional impact of any movie scene and can even slant the way we feel about it. Some of the most iconic songs in the history of music had a boost into position as a cultural phenomenon by being tied to a memorable film moment in some of the best movie soundtracks of all time.
