AFI - 100 Years.. 100 Songs

Post by grim_tales »

Did anyone see this afternoon? I know I said "No more sodding list shows" ;) but this was actually quite a good one. It dealt with the American Film Institute's countdown of the best 100 movie songs.
The only thing I would say though is how can you say one song is "better" than another?
Several songs from the same film would feature - "The Sound of Music had 3 songs featured I think, but say, if the (admittedly very good) title song from Beauty And The Beast is there, why not the showtune "Be Our Guest"?
I also would have preferred The Lion King's "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" or "Circle of Life" over "Hakuna Matata" for example.
You cant fault "White Chrsitmas" or "Over the Rainbow" being included though ;)

Brad did you see this? :D

No-one saw this then? Brad? :D

It'll be repeated again soon by C4 I bet, when they have a Sunday night to fill.
Soon there will "The 100 Greatest 100 Greatest Countdown Lists TV Shows"
