2. I just can't believe that no songs from South Park made it on the list.
I'm not talking in the top 10, but Blame Canada is a much better song, and did more for the movie, then Hakuna Matata IMHO.

3. McCabe and Mrs. Miller (Robert Altman)
the entire soundtrack is basically Leonard Cohen's greatest hits.

The best western ever made and one of the best sound tracks. Oh, and the movie won the oscar.

But they included #66, so I can't really complain.
