Paramount Pictures' "Top Gun" with Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis - Paramount Pictures

There are some songs that when we hear them, we immediately think of a movie. I originally set out to do a top ten list, but the more I thought about songs like these, the more I realized ten just wasn't going to cut it. Once I started thinking, I couldn't stop coming up with new ones. Friends and family kept putting more and more suggestions into my head. Soon, I was like Richard Dreyfuss in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The mountain of mud just kept growing and growing. As a result, I had to make some tough choices. I'm sure many dumb… Continued

Five Bond Theme Songs Worthy Of The Sexy Spy

Sean Connery as James Bond
MGM

What is a Bond film without its music? Often it's easier to remember a truly good Bond theme than the plot of the film itself. Exotic women, powerful guns, remarkable spy tools, endless intrigue: sure, the elements remain the same. And we expect musical counterparts worthy of the exciting franchise. But then there's always the problem of the theme song being able to break new ground while maintaining the Bond sound that we all crave. Over the decades, the sound has changed slightly, with a return lately to the twangy guitars and heavy… Continued

Not only is it the playoffs, but this week's game on FNL is being televised nationally (on NBC, naturally), so stakes are high. But you'd never know it in the episode ("Game of the Week") by the disappearing act of the… Continued

Music on Life: Short Shelf Life

Damian Lewis in 'Life'
Damian Lewis in 'Life' - NBC

With Life on life support, it doesn't help to have an episode like this ("Shelf Life") which feels like filler in place to deal with Sarah Shahi's pregnancy. While the phone scenes between Crews and Reese were funny, it kind of felt like those weird Continued

Music on Reaper: Follow the Rabbit

"Adapt or die, Sam," says the Devil (Ray Wise) at one point during the very funny "Dirty Sexy Mongol" last night, and the same could be said for the Reaper series, as it still struggles to… Continued

Music on Chuck: Moonlighting Syndrome be Damned

Will they or won't they? Count me in as one who's getting sick of the question already.

While I still mostly enjoy my weekly hour of Chuck (and Yvonne Strahovski looking all kinds of hotness in undergarments toting a gun) the Sarah/Chuck relationship BS in the last three episodes has officially gotten on my nerves. … Continued

Music on Life on Mars: Sweet Mustache

Aside from overplaying all the Wizard of Oz references, this is the Life on Mars I signed on for. There are still things to pick apart here (ease off WoO), but with this episode the series picked up a recognizable balance between Tyler's predicament, the case at hand, and the generational differences. And we now have… Continued
