Pinnacle songs used in/for Movies from your childhood.


Hey, i'm kind of on a nostalgia trip here.

I've been searching songs on youtube that i distinctly remember hearing from movies i watched as a kid, it's a good solid buzz.
Most of mine are from the 90's

what i've noticed while browsing is that a lot of the comments are from people like myself who are nostalgia-tripping.

please feel free to contribute yours

Peace!
