Best Song From a Movie

  1. Miley Cyrus "The Climb"
    Hannah Montana: The Movie

    Directed by Peter Chelsom

    Miley's ballad is all about staying optimistic in the face of tough decisions, like choosing between regular life and your secret pop star alter-ego.

  2. A.R. Rahman "Jai Ho"
    Slumdog Millionaire

    Directed by Danny Boyle

    A.R. Rahman's swelling, celebratory Indian dance-number really drives home the triumphant feelings that 'Slumdog' leaves behind.

  3. Bruce Springsteen "The Wrestler"
    The Wrestler

    Directed by Darren Aronofsky

    This eponymous song is based on the real life lost-and-found friendship between The Boss and 'Wrestler'-lead Mickey Rourke.

  4. Paramore "Decode"
    Twilight

    Directed by Catherine Hardwicke

    A song about building tension, awkwardness, anger and confusion, 'Decode' perfectly sums up Edward and Bella's relationship.
