I was blown away after being lown away by the movie.

This is definitely the most significant song that I learned of from a movie. They used it SOOO damn well.

From watching the movie Rock Star i discovered a lot of songs and bands. For example the song "We All Die Young" by Steelheart.
Also i discovered the song "Africa" by Toto through the tv-series Scrubs.

Scrubs - JD singing Africa (Toto cover)

One movie is responsible for my music tastes today.

That movie is Stealing Beauty.

I watched it because I wanted to see Liv Tyler's tits.

I bought it because of the AMAZING soundtrack. It introduced me to a whole world of music I had never heard. Mazzy Star, Cocteau Twins, Hooverphonic, Portishead...

Still one of my all-time favorite soundtracks, I listen to it all the time.

What comes to mind first is "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding" by Elvis Costello. More important for me was to discover Costello himself rather than this particular song. It was in Lost in Translation.

As far as I remember, I discovered Radio Dept too in a Sofia Coppola's film. They have great soundtracks.
