Pirates of the Caribbean has to be one of the most memorable. I also really like Lord of the Rings - I like the way it has such recognisable tracks for each race and the way they use these throughout the story. I thought the same of the Hobbit.

"Young & Beautiful" - Lana Del Rey (The Great Gatsby 2013)
"Radioactive" - Imagine Dragons (The Host)
"It's Time" - Imagine Dragons (The Perks of Being A Wallflower)

That was a good one. Another one I liked was the soundtrack songs from Little Shop Of Horrors.
