Your top ten movie sountracks of all time

By far, to me the no. 1 soundtrack will always be Purple Rain. It rules over anything else. Saying that, here is my whole list:
1. Purple Rain
2. Waiting To Exhale
3. Boomerang
4. The Bodyguard
5. Dreamgirls
6. Menace 2 Society
7. Saturday Night Fever
8. Batman
9. Superfly
10. Boyz In the Hood

That's my list. What's yours?
Peace and be wild!

Yeah,why should we be embarassed for liking the 'Xanadu' soundtrack? lol It's a superb collection of songs by Olivia and ELO.I guess because the movie has such a bad reputation,folks are scared to like the music,lol.Even Jeff Lynne (ELO leader) has tried to distance himself from this project confused
