Which movie soundtracks touched you the most when you were a kid

Ohhh good question!

Batman 1989. Honest to god, that movie and its soundtrack probably shaped me as a person lol

When I was a kid I had some records that had a picture of the movie on it... Snow White and Peter Pan. I also liked listening to the soundtracks of The Wizard of Oz, Mary Poppins, The Sound of Music, and Grease.

Touched? 🤔
Lost boys soundtrack is still the best soundtrack.. followed by the commitments

West Side Story (1961).

"Life is alright in America, if you're all white in America."

"When you're a Jet, you're a Jet all the way, from your first cigarette, till your last dyin' day."

"Gee Officer Krumpke, I'm very upset!"

"Boy...boy...crazy boy...keep coolin' cool boy. Don't get hot, 'cause man you've got some high times ahead. Take it slow, and daddyo, you can live it up and die in bed.'

'The most beautiful sound I ever heard....Maria....I just met a girl named Maria.'

Friday 1995

Titanic 😂

The Blues Brothers, not sure if "touched me" the most is accurate, but do listen to blues every so often and can't hear Soul Man with out remembering Belushi's version, to some extent anyway

West Side Story, The Music Man, Guys and Dolls, and Bye, Bye, Birdie.

And, of course, A Hard Days Night, and Help

Edit to add Yankee Doodle Dandy

I really liked Fiddler on the Roof. Not sure that counts as it was the soundtrack for the play, although the one for the movie was similar.

I don't listen to music much, but I remember when Grease came out, it had quite a few hit songs from its soundtrack.

Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid, Bambi, Anastasia, the musical Hair, Oliver, Reality Bites, Empire Records

Roman Holiday
Sneakers
Young At Heart - Doris Day
Revolutionary Road
The Great Escape
Appollo 13
The Ten Commandments

Not sure it had a huge impact on me, but I think the Rocky theme is the best, it's known everywhere 🥊

The Neverending Story. Though it's objectively terrible when you are an adult.

I like Rocky, Godzilla, Armageddon, and Reign over me
