I think if one makes a list of 100 best musical homage scenes, John Woo's "A Better Tomorrow", an homage to the "Mean Streets" scene, deserves a high seat.
So many of these films were instrumental in me getting into songs I never would have heard otherwise. True, a lot of them were "Pop" at the time, but these days, a lot of films cram commercial music into the soundtrack with hardly a care of for its score value.
make a second part ! -Stepmother - The Family man - Snatch - Revolver (moonlight sonata) - I Put a spell on you ... on that Jim Jarmusch movie - zombieland - metallica ! - RockNrolla (the german song) - Mrs. Doubtfire - Pulp Fiction (that sexy scene when she sings) - The Bodyguard etc
I LOVE it that the Aimee Mann track in Magnolia was in the top 10. That's one of my favorite movie music moments. I must say, though that I think you should have included one of the oompah loompah songs from one of the Willy Wonka movies. But maybe you considered that a musical.
Body Guard - "I will always love you". Scott Pilgrim - The Bass Battle. Apocalypse Now - Ride of the Valkaries. Wierd Science - Wierd Science. Highlander - Princes of the Universe. Top Gun - Fly Into the Danger Zone. Kill Bill - Anything from the movie. Cowboy Bebop - Ballad of the Fallen Angels. Blues Brothers - Anything from the movie. Godfather - Ending Score. Ace Ventura 2 - Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Breakfast Club - Love is a Battlefield. Every fucking Disney movie ever made.
Body Guard - Whitney Houston's "I will always love you" Scott Pilgrim - The Bass Battle Apocalypse Now - Ride of the Valkaries Wierd Science - Wierd Science Highlander - Princes of the Universe Top Gun - Fly Into the Danger Zone Kill Bill - Anything from the movie Cowboy Bebop - Ballad of the Fallen Angels Blues Brothers - Anything from the movie Godfather - Ending Score Ace Ventura 2 - Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Breakfast Club - Love is a Battlefield Every fucking Disney movie ever.
I wanna know what morons put these lists together and fuck everything up. Like how parts of the titles aren't there, or how "Jessie's Girl" wasn't even the song playing in the clip from Boogie Nights.
@mewlists The Top Gun song is listed wrong, in the video it's "As Time Goes By," when it should be "You've Lost that Lovin' Feeling" by the Righteous Brothers. One of my favs, I couldn't help but notice X)

While I'm not nearly as avid a movie viewer as whoever compiled this list, I have a few ideas that come to mind, if a second list is ever made:
"Canned Heat" by Jamiroquai in Napoleon Dynamite
"All Star" by Smashmouth in Shrek
"Soul Bossa Nova" by Quincy Jones in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery
"Tuesday's Gone" by Lynard Skynard in Billy Madison
"Oh Yeah" by Yello in Ferris Bueller's Day Off
"James Bond Theme" by Monty Norman and John Barry in...every James Bond Movie

2) "Wanna be like you" from Jungle Book
