Love this post! I couldn't tell you which movie it was but back in the 90s (ions ago) I heard Bohemian Rhapsody, and I was sold instantly!

Hi @TannerPandora I know, it's hard to know the specific movie since that song has been in many movies.

However, whatever it is, we have to be grateful for that movie, because it was the first to show you that musical masterpiece! 💖 🎶

That's a great question! 

Crystal - Stevie Nick (Practical Magic) 💜

The Show Must Go On - Queen (Moulin Rouge!) 💃

Cherrybomb - Joan Jett (The Runaways) 🤘

Hi @zaczermeno Interesting! I didn't know The Runaways had their own movie 😯 

I'll watch it, I like the music of Joan Jett and Lita Ford 🤘💜

@TannerPandora I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Wayne's World. 

Take care and GOD bless. 

[LeonPandora]

@TannerPandora @MOHLovesAlaska Same here. I "clicked" with Bohemian Rhapsody with Wayne's World.

@amendez Here is my list:

1. Day-O (The Banana Boat Song) by Harry Belafonte (movie Beetlejuice)
2. Crazy (James Michael Mix) by Alanis Morissette (movie Devil Wars Prada)
3. Swan Lake Swan Lake (movie Billy Elliot)
4. Johnny Be Good by Chuck Berry (movie Back to the Future)

[MOHLovesAlaska]

@LeonPandora The Banana Boat Song from Beetlejuice is smack. I also loved "Johnny Be Good" from Back To The Future, but my favorite is when Michael J. Fox plays the guitar while the song is playing. He was such a great actor, I feel bad about his condition. 

Take care and GOD bless.
