Lebo M. and Carmen Twillie versus Elton John for the best version of “Circle of Life”: both are great, but the added lines in Elton’s version make the song deeper. “Some say, ‘Eat or be eaten.’ / Some say, ‘Live and let live.’ But all are agreed, as they join the stampede, / You should never take more than you give.” And that’s from the first verse. Per the second verse of the latter, “Some of us fall by the wayside, / And some of us soar to the stars, / And some of us sail through our troubles, / And some have to live with the scars.”

I would have given an honorable mention to John Parr's "Man In Motion" from "St. Elmo's Fire."

[@georgeharris6851]

Although he had written it about a disabled man in a wheelchair, and just added the St. Elmo's Fire words for the movie.

So Long and Thanks For All the Fish is really good, too

So long and thanks for all the fish, great call

I knew this list would contain a few of my favorite artists and their amazing hits. Kenny Loggins, the Bee Gees and Survivor are on top for me. Also the music from Dirty Dancing and Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On". Great list Watch Mojo!

Love these movie theme songs ❤

The power of love always makes me feel good.

Men in Black and Ghostbusters are some of my favorite songs of all time. I remember watching the Men in Black music video after watching it on VHS and doing the dance moves that Will Smith did in the video as a kid. Such a cool music video.

[@The_Legend47]

HELL YEAH!

[@georgeharris6851]

Men zin Black's melody is copied from a so g that already existed, so should be disqualified.

[@atruecoinsmaster2530]

I would have put the theme from Smokey and the bandit east bound and down

[@flashjohnstone]

What about You're The Best from The Karate Kid?

[@zwoodard1]

Barry Gordy's "The Last Dragon" should of, at least, had an honorable mention! SHO-NUFF!!

[@travistucker4067]

I concur

[@chefdh]

Power of love is top 10 for me
