Danny Elfman is fucking good at what he does, the film score often makes a Burton film

Don't know if I've got five at the moment, but a few of my faves are Braveheart, The Crow, and the LOTR trilogy.

Edit: Gotta add Gladiator to this list.

Is this some fifth Indiana Jones movie I've never heard of?

^One of the best scores ever!

^I agree .. I think it's the most haunting soundtrack from Elfman!

Another I could have mentioned (although I wouldn't put it on my list) is American Beauty. I really like the song "Any Other Name" that Thomas Newman made for that movie. Also a very haunting tune. :)

1. The Hours - Philip Glass

2. The Fountain - Clint Mansell

3. Life Aquatic - Seu Jorge (Get this album, its amazing. All acoustic Bowie covers by the Brazillian singer Seu Jorge)

That's my top three.

Those songs are good but don't forget the actual score itself which is really good and was done by Mark Mothersbaugh.
