[FongioHELS]

OH MY GOD I LOVE ARMAGEDDON i cry EVERY TIME

[TrevRomFilm]

Also what about The Third Man, Lawrence of Arabia, Bridge on the River Kwai, Vertigo I'd have liked to hear some more movies before 1960

[TrevRomFilm]

I feel cheated that I sat through 10 minutes of famous film scores and didn't here E.T. or Stand Be Me.

[bangkokxpats]

You got em ALL right friend. You got GREAT taste but you forgot for a fistful of dollars :D

[markforthewin]

Heh, I was slowly getting mad cause I was missing Star Wars, and then you decided to include it twice at the end... Well played.

[Tiffanysattic97]

All wonderful soundtrack. Some of the best movies of all time. Thanks so much for taking the time to post.

[Borisandhismonsters]

@timdedecker And what about back to the future!!!!

[mieroth]

Recognised them all before the title appeared - proof that this is a great list. Geez people like to nag a lot...

[domzolabush]

[Bromthebard]

I love how this list is supposed to be the most famous but it turns out to also be the best. Very good job, VERY nice collection. And you also saved the best for last!

[Bromthebard]

I love how this list is supposed to be the most famous but it turns out to also be the best. Very good job, VERY nice collection.

[iNSoMaRi]

[Hrd2GtProductions]

[1Poetboy]

what about that soundtrack with the buzzing flies sound?

[20485742895729875]

I think the first two Star Trek films deserve a mention. Jerry Goldsmith and James Horner did fantastic work for their respective films.

[cloudnine04]

Geez guys, he can't put EVERY soundtrack on here- even if it may be well- known. That is a great list.

[illiniry]

No back to the future? Thanks for putting this together anyway, great job.

[PoetDavies]

can you do a top 30 in movie songs

[startrekwarsmixguy]

Great list, just 2 things, the great escape and 28 weeks later should both be on there (thats both things)

[SusanaVonUckermann]

Great list! :)

[raistapartam]

[TheHannibalos]

[Shosara]

[vladCOBHC]

Great list!



[alradgoessomething]

Gladiator! <3 Chills everytime.

[holyhunter]

Great list, a lot of classic scores to refresh my memory.

[w0to]

hey tim, ooit al ' the alamo' of 'the patriot' gezien? ook goed se

[FoolOfSparta]

where is the song from rocky!? gonna fly now!?

[valentin865]

i swear is the love story song the song from two girls one cup?

[A2heRb]

i know all the songs :P

Life is beautiful made me sad /:

[ialmanza4]

Your list sucks.



[chiefrockaa]

dude, that's really awesome! some great emotions and memories stuck in these 10 minutes! great choice!

[Alpito123]

Damn, Schinlders list is one great movie

[SilverRaindrops86]

I agree that those are probably the most famous film scores - yet more proof that most famous doesn't necessarily equal best ;). But thanks for making the vid, I had a great time guessing the movies^^.

[103959770979]

True, great selection but ET, Terminator, Predator and much more are missing.

90% of the best soundtracks are from Mr John Williams who composed music for over 70 years for the more remarkable films of Hollywood.

[DARKsonofCHAOS]

This guy doesnt knows what a film score is.

[cocoman896]

@DARKsonofCHAOS Just like you don't know what proper grammar is.

[DARKsonofCHAOS]

@cocoman896 yeah u the kicked out teacher right ?

[cocoman896]

@DARKsonofCHAOS No I'm just educated enough to speak with some intelligence.

[DARKsonofCHAOS]

@cocoman896 u still kicked out.

[Section1Guy]

#22.... Boo yah! I was waiting for it.

[Robbefellah]

I loved all of these and recognised most of them from the first couple of notes, nice work ;)

[Anethji]

i think you could include Hans Zimmer inception soudtrack and memoirs of a gueisha

[standardbearer]

I've been directed here from a Cannibal holocaust video :D

BTW, where is the BATMAN theme?

Everyone knows the original batman theme!

[matthill14]

Great list man

[shellbellmel]

#18 FTW

[etniies99]

very very well done :D best movie soundtracks ever

[maryamiscoolz]

schindler's list one is breathtaking...

[Caladobo]

Nice work Tim, but... well, some famous soundtracks are really missing here, and some (Harry Potter, Armageddon...) should not be in your ranking, my opinion;).

I think

Gone with The Wind

Danses with Wolves

Taxi Driver (saxo)

High Noon

The 7 Mercenaries

Barry Lyndon

Bullitt

Midnight Express... could be in the ranking too :)

[METALGEARSOL1D]

Some of these shouldn't even be on there. Harry Potter wtf! Next time its gonna be Twighlight or some other shitty pre-teen film. For all the props you give that shitty Starwars theme, you should be putting Blade Runner's theme on this list. That score by Vangelis captures that whole movie.

[timdedecker]

@METALGEARSOL1D As the title says: this video's about the 30 'most famous' film scores.

Blade Runner's theme is wonderful indeed but Star Wars's theme is still much more famous.

[stoepertje]

@timdedecker You just missed one soundtrack that became as popular as the movie: Ghostbusters

[M4rtSV]

@METALGEARSOL1D never ever anger John Williams in my presence!!! :P

[M4rtSV]

@METALGEARSOL1D never ever anger John Williams in my presence!!! :P

[OverLoad619]

@METALGEARSOL1D Title didn't say best fucktard... said MOST FAMOUS, Who DOESN'T know the starwars theme?

[METALGEARSOL1D]

@OverLoad619 Okay, then the whole list is a fucking lie because no one knows the Shindler's List theme, Spartacus, or the Armageddon theme. I've seen all of those movies, and I hardly remember any of the theme songs. Maybe you should get your head examined because these aren't the "MOST FAMOUS." If anything, this guy just made a list of the songs he appreciates and put it under a false title. Why don't you troll someone who has the mental capcity of an earthworm like yourself.

[timdedecker]

@METALGEARSOL1D It's impossible to say which are the most famous...

I just did an effort to compile some of them. And by reading most of the comments, I believe I succeeded. By now, I do regret putting some of the soundtracks (like Armageddon-theme) in there, but then again it was just an effort. Last Of The Mohicans, Dances With Wolves, Blade Runner... deserved a place in this video too...

[Section1Guy]

@METALGEARSOL1D Wow. I didn't even get to this part of the comments yet. You're just seriously disturbed, dude. Besides the fact that you're named after a video game...

[Section1Guy]

@METALGEARSOL1D It's Harry Potter... Anyone would recognize the main theme....get a grip. You're one of these "why don't they have a biopic on Kurt Cobain but they have one on Justin Bieber" guys...

[Baena87]

@METALGEARSOL1D H.Potter is a children/teen movie but the song is very well composed and John Williams is the master of masters....

[TheFlipperDolphin]

@METALGEARSOL1D Harry Potter and Star Wars are two of the most celebrated movie soundtracks in history! John Williams redefined the concept of movie soundtracks. They are also two of the most FAMOUS in history (as the title of the video clearly states.)

[MillaProductionsLego]

THE GODFATHER!

Man you got it!

[teosep]

Allow me to add 2 more wonderfull soundtracks

1. "The last of the Mohicans"

2."For a few dollars more"

[jothohero]

dude this is a seriously good collection of songs! thx for reminding me of some of this songs =D

[cargne123]

forrest gump, e.t., pulp fiction

[JermainePhillips23]

BACK TO THE FUTURE

[amyleerobpattinson]

TITANIC!!!!!! <3

[goladed]

[ilkurni]

euh... ever heard about pulp fiction?

[timdedecker]

@ilkurni Pulp fiction doesn't have a soundtrack score, only songs...

[shaikooo]

I think the soundtrack of Pulp Fiction is amazing

Tarantino is my favorite director in every way but the films he chose were great too

[TheIrishDragoon]

Where are "Out of Africa" ... "Forrest Gump" ... "Willow" and "The Natural"?

Awesome list though

[riskygerbil92]

WHERE IS DRAGONHEART?????

[TheDrEaMeRgIrL296]

[jma1994]

[timdedecker]

@jma1994 Just search for "Main Title" from Good, Bad, Ugly by Ennio Morricone ;)

[jma1994]

[NaomiGigi]

Almost perfect: You forgot the 'American Beauty' theme.

[TrickyEmu]

ROFL Great job! Now I know where they come from.

[PJZB74]

Great compilation.

Actually I was looking for a particular one and found it here.

So thank you very much and keep up the good work.

[pager711]

Great work...must have taken awhile to put together.

Were these ranked in any particular order?

If so, Star Wars Ep. IV has to be top one.

I agree, Last of the Mohicans is pretty famous,

and the theme to Forrest Gump is famous too.

Good list!

[avatar666666]

Last of the mochicans

[livelove313]
