Need Help Identifying Genre

Sparrowhawk · 03-18-2013, 09:05 AM

Hello,

New here, and I was wondering if I could get some help with something I have always had trouble with. Identifying genres from songs in movies.

Obviously stores classify them as "soundtrack" - but that's not what I want. I want to be able to find songs similar to some I have heard in movies.

Specifically, I would like to know the genre of the following (I know they are not the same - I am looking for multiple genres - but none of these fit common genres, like "rock" or "pop"):

"Hellfire" sung by Tony Jay in Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame

"Temptation" as sung by Cote de Pablo from the tv series NCIS

"Into the West" by Annie Lenox in Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

Thanks in advance!

Not quite what I was looking for on Hellfire - lyrically it is religious, I referring more to the music of it. Sorry for not being clear.

Tony Jay - "HellFire". (Religious)

Cote de Pablo - "Temptation", written by Tom Waits. (Experimental) PS. (Cote de Pablo performed a portion of Tom Waits's song "Temptation" on the NCIS.)

Annie Lennox - "Into the West". (New Age)
