My Top 15 Film Score Tracks

I'm a huge fan of film scores. I think music is a very important part of films. While they aren't always essential, when done correctly they are absolutely breathtaking. I've decided to do a countdown of my top 15 favorite film score tracks. Notice this is tracks, not entire film scores; if it was it would certainly look much different.

15.) Titanic - Rose by James Horner



Say what you will about the film itself (I happen to like it), but the film score is absolutely breathtaking regardless, particularly this track. I think it's rare for the entire emotion of a film to be captured in one song, but I feel Horner has done so here. In general I think the tracks I tend to select are those which I feel have effectively told the story of the films they belong to without having to use words or images.

  3. James Horner is an amazing composer though. His work on Avatar was very inspiring, for sure.
