Music in PTA movies

[BonBon85]

What's your favorite use of music in a PTA movie? You can discuss both the score as well as regular songs.

I'm partial the use of "One" in Magnolia and Brion's score in PDL.

God Only Knows

[MacGuffin]

Both "Clementine Loop" and "Do Your Thing" in Boogie Nights.

"Craft Service Theme" by Jon Brion

[life_boy]

Tough call.  "Sister Christian" in Boogie Nights is classic.  I also loved  "He Needs Me" in Punch-Drunk Love.

Clementine Loop

[phil marlowe]

Nobody mentions Wise Up because it is to obvious to mention. But isn't it the best use of music in a PTA movie?

I personally think so
Haven't seen PDL though

[Ghostboy]

Yeah, Wise Up is the obvious one. But aside from that, God Only Knows just made Boogie Nights so much greater for me. It made the ending really moving...I'm a big Pet Sounds fan.

I didn't want to have to state the obvious.  I'm glad someone else already did.

SYDNEY
-Both closing credits songs, although im more partial to Fiona's

BOOGIE
-Joy
-Machine Gun
-You Got The Touch(soundtrack version especially)
-Jessie's Girl
-Livin' Thinng

MAGNOLIA
-Its all wonderful, even "Dreams", which I would hate under any other circumstance. The best though, is of course the peak/cut to black/ writen&dir by pta

KNUCKLEPUNCH
-Here We Go(which wasnt even in the fuckin thing)
-He Needs Me
-All score(thats some crazy fucking shit they cooked up)

[polkablues]

Long push-in on Melora Walters, Oscar-nominated Aimee Mann song... the best cut to black in the history of cinema.

[Film Student]

Sydney- Jon Brion/Michael Penn's demented rendition of christmas music, film noir style.

Boogie Nights- Do your thing, Livin' thing, Spill the Wine, Jessie's Girl

Magnolia- I take Jon Brion's ever-evolving score over Aimee Mann any day (although I still love Mann)

Punch-Drunk Love- Brion's score, especially during the scene where everything's happening at once in the warehouse (am i the only one who was fucking annoyed by the shelley duvall song?)

[neatahwanta]

(Yes, you are.)

Moana Chimes

HARD EIGHT
Jon Brion & Michael Penn - Tokens To Cash

(I put up the soundtrack for download a months ago (with the help of sphinx) - if you want the mp3 pm me - its so funky)

BOOGIE NIGHTS
ELO - Livin Thing     Best fucking credits song! It fits so well - especially with the cool title cards with character and actor name!!

Special mention - Sniff N Tears - Drivers Seat - soooo perfect placement for when Thomas Jane (Todd Parker - I love that name - so good) rocks up

"full fuckin race cams" :D

MAGNOLIA
Driving Sideways (played when Solomon Solomon is yelling at Whiz Kid and he throws the keys on the desk - its soooooooo subtle yet sooooooo cool - i love it)

PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE
I'll tell you in another 8 fucking weeks
(I am in Australia)
