Interesting and Strange Uses of the Film Music - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I was watching a bit of BBC Sports Personality of the Year earlier (it was rubbish, Lewis Hamilton didn't win

) and they had an item on Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt. The accompanying music was Evenstar from the film soundtracks.

What a weird choice of music for that item!

I notice snippets of the Howard Shore soundtracks used all the time - very prominently in the David Dimbleby Picture Of Britain series on art.

Has anyone else noticed this? Have you spotted any other weird uses of the music?
