Music in movies falls in to these different camps.
  • Music written especially for the film
  • Music which is already available, but fits within the narrative of the film
Music especially written for a movie can either be a one off song or a complete album of songs (plus incidental music in the background) or a chart hit shoehorned in to a film.
I've watched an awful lot of kids movies in my time and some of the best were the ones that had music especially written for the movie and performed by some of the top artists of the time or ever.
Here's Elton John with a couple of tracks from animated film The Road to El Dorado These great songs can by and large go un-noticed by the fans as they were deemed to be movie music or they were too old for the film
this territory is moderated
Sir Elton did an amazing job on these. A brilliant soundtrack for the film. I get what you're saying about the top old for the film thing, but I liked them.
I agree it was hard to segregate between music in movies, and music written for movies, including ambience scores, so I chose not to differentiate and hope someone was going to submit John Williams Jurassic park theme here somewhere
