POP MUZIK:
100 Hits from the Big Screen
Where would we be without music? Well, one thing's for certain, the movies would be a lot less involving. So much so, that the two are seemingly inseparable. When coupled together, music can bring out what is best in film, and film in turn what is best in music. As an example consider The Bodyguard which featured Whitney Houston singing "I Will Always Love You". A wonderful song and indeed a quite wonderful film. Honest!
