Of Music From TV (Soundtracks)

some of the best Soundtracks from Movies and TV Shows

My all-time favourite music playlists have songs that come from TV as sound tracks or theme songs to movies and TV Shows.

movie credits

Yes, I am one of those who pauses the end movie credits  to find the OSTs: Official SoundTracks (and also to check if what I just watched is based on a book then I hunt down … that’s if I liked it of course, otherwise it’s to make sure I stay away from future works by said production company)

Sometimes I find tracks the hard way, by trying to remember a few key words from the lyrics then Google, other times I just Google the OST to a movie and find my song but its never as easy that, since you still wont know the particular song you are looking for. Then sometimes I remember Shazam; an app which listens and identifies songs for you. (too bad you cant hum a song to it but it works even for songs playing on the radio, you those radio DJs who dont tell you what songs they are playing)

Shazam listening

    The CSI soundtrack, “I don’t need to fight to prove I’m right…” I actually only watch the series because of the music 😂

    The last film track I fell in love with was the starting theme to Legally Blonde. Perfect Day by Hoku. I have the soundtrack CD now. 🙂
