Top 15 Teen Movie Music Moments

7. Some Kind of Wonderful, Lick The Tins, "Can't Help Falling in Love"

This, for many, is a favorite John Hughes moment. I'd never seen the movie but, oh man, it IS a great song. Love the tin whistle. Skinny Eric Stoltz and a tin whistle is all you need.

6. Dazed and Confused, "Free Ride"

Honestly there are TONS of songs to choose from on this one... a great classic rock soundtrack. "Free Ride" narrowly beat out the pool hall entrance scene to Bob Dylan's "Hurricane".

5. Fast Times at Ridgemont High: The Cars, "Moving in Stereo"

Hilariously, the actual scene isn't on YouTube (probably because of the nudity), but the scene has obviously reached legendary status, as you get the idea here.

NO mention of The Plimsouls being on the Valley Girl soundtrack THREE times, including Million Miles Away and Everywhere at Once, or that they were actually IN the movie?  How can you maintain a semblance of credibility?

Good list... I might reorder it a bit but thats all personal preference and definitely The opening sequence of Dazed and Confused where they fade into that kick ass 69 GTO and Sweet Emotion starts... probably would be my #1
