I must take issue with Jeremy's definition here.


'Songs' is too narrow a term to describe those 'pieces' that might make up a soundtrack. One would not describe an orchestral 'piece' as a 'song'. Nor would one describe 'tunes' such as Gritty Shaker out of Ocean's 11 - as a 'song'. Both these 'tracks' are, however, most definitely 'soundtrack'.

I think that's just about it. Any existing music = soundtrack.


Written 'for' the film = score. An exception would be eg a song written for the film but for use during, say, the titles or credits. Score is usually written for, but also 'written to' the picture. Though I'm sure a lot of less trad composers these days just do a load of cues which the editor can mix up as they please.. especially in action flicks.

Times Square really was a humdinger - bit more info

The movie features a soundtrack of punk rock and New Wave music with a wide range of artists including The Ramones, The Cure, XTC, Lou Reed, Gary Numan, Talking Heads, Suzi Quatro, Roxy Music, Robin Gibb & Marcy Levy, Patti Smith and The Pretenders. The song "Down in the Park" is credited as being performed by Gary Numan although technically it was recorded when Numan was using the band name Tubeway Army. The Suzi Quatro track, "Rock Hard," is identified in the film as being Nicky and Pamela's favourite record.

The soundtrack also features original songs sung by the film's actors, "Damn Dog" by Johnson, "Your Daughter Is One" by Johnson and Alvarado, and "Flowers of the City" by Johnson and David Johansen. The soundtrack, as a compilation of some of the most important new wave and punk music from the era, achieved far more notoriety than the film did on its release. It also became a collectors' item among fans of XTC, because it included the specially-written XTC track "Take This Town", which for many years was only available on this soundtrack.

    • I’ve noticed a lot more of that green grass that looks a bit like corn or barley. Is it naturally-occurring or should I suspect the hand of a “guerrilla gardener”?

    • I think there's the usual number this year -15-20 - screeching around high & low, zooming between the houses and generally being awesome. The back gardens between Colyton, Dovedale, Mundania & Shelbury always seem to have a colony in the summer - no idea where their nests are though. There's also what appears to be a solitary bat that zooms back & forth along the front gardens of Colyton, unless it is several but you never see two at once!
    • Thanksxsll ive decided to return to original clinic with my questions.
