speaking of menace II society...TOP OF THE WORLD was the b-o-m-b

I like the songs off the Temptations movie. I didn't know that they sounded so good. I also like Love and Basketball soundtrack, Five Heartbeats, Waiting Exhale. Basically, I love all musicals and soundtracks.

Mo Better Blues Cynda Williams singing "Harlem Blues"

Love Jones Can't Get Enough (Kenny Lattimore), You Move Me (Cassandra Wilson), In A Sentimental Mood (D. Ellington, J. Coltrane). I also liked the music from the stepping dance scene, but it's not on the soundtrack

Love and Basketball Angie Stone's rendition of Simply Red's Holding Back the Years, Zapp and Roger's I Wanna Be your Man (do you all remember Omar Epp's eyes during this part? Nikki is looking for her fan--whew), Fool of Me by Me'Shell Ndeogecello

The Best Man Cameo's classic, "Candy". Why do I want to do the electric slide up in my office just thinking about that scene? LOL http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Ideal08,
The Maxwell song is "This Woman's Work," but it's not on the soundtrack... it's on his Unplugged (live) album.

BTW, this is my first post after long being an observer...just wanted to say hello to everyone!

P.S. I am not a member of any organization

Also, many think that this song was originally done by Maxwell. In fact, he does it as a cover of Kate Bush's original version from back in the early 80's. She's a UK artist. That's just FYI.

Well, here are my favorites:

Forrest Gump
Animal House (Lots of Barry Gordy songs)
Dead Presidents, Vol. I & II
Friday, Vol. I & II
New Jack City
Boyz N the Hood
Menace II Society
Above the Rim (Loved the soundtrack, hated the move).
Revenge of the Nerds (Yes, they had a movie soundtrack).
Cooley High
Malcolm X

i concur w/LOVE JONES, and the NEW JACK CITY soundtracks. my absolute fave is the SCHOOL DAZE soundtrack. The Ray's Be Alone Tonight and Be One by Phyllis Hyman are the best http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif
