The 25 Best Movie Sound Tracks
As any serious music fan knows, it's the songs that make good films great. Just in time for the Oscars, TIME runs down the best movie sound tracks ever
Singin' in the Rain, 1952
Singin' in the Rain is best known for Gene Kelly's splash-filled dance scene to the title song, which, according to legend, Kelly filmed in one take while fighting off a 103-degree fever. While the scene is one of the most memorable and joyful in cinema history, the film also includes a number of songs that are too often overlooked. "Make 'Em Laugh," a goofy ode to slapstick comedy, will get stuck in your head. The big-band number "All I Do Is Dream of You" is equally catchy, and "Good Morning" is a classic song involving incredibly quick tap dancing. But the title song of the film is so good, it's forgivable if you've forgotten about the rest.
