Edith Piaf, Mötley Lüe and the Best Music Cues of 2010
4. "O Children" from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I
As a rabid Harry Potter fanboy it always irks me when the filmmakers take liberties with the narrative laid out in painstaking detail by J.K. Rowling. Still, one addition in The Deathly Hallows was inspired: Harry and Hermione dancing to "O Children" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds expanded on their relationship in ways that Rowling never touched on and provided the most honest moment in the film. Just lovely.

“Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien” from Inception was definitely the best of the above choices. Awesome. Then again I didn't see any of the other 4 movies but this one was memorable.
The use of Swan Lake in Black Swan was pretty awesome, but I guess that's more of an all-encompassing theme.
But how could leave off Garbage Truck, by Sex Bob-Omb!?!?
I loved many of the cues in Scott Pilgrim. For what it's worth, "Black Sheep" by Clash at Demonhead (actually Metric) was my fav.
"All Out of Love" in Animal Kingdom. Best use of underrated pop majesty in the best film of the year that also happens to remain underrated. I grinned ear-to-ear the first time but wouldn't make that mistake again.
Hopefully they use Grinderman in the next Harry Potter movie.
