Mrs. Robinson by Simon and Garfunkel was not written specifically for The Graduate, but it did appear in the film before it was released elsewhere, so I count it.
It wins and it's not close.
Clear 2nd place for I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing - Armageddon
Ninja rap by Vanilla Ice
Scotty Doesn't Know
This one of course
youtu.be
for me its Live and Let Die
Imagine if they didn't get this right.
No Time To Die
'Falling Slowly' for Once
Nope, it was on Seal's second album and was actually in Neverending Story 3 a year before it was in Batman. Schumacher liked it so much he used it for the end credit song and it got big from that so Seal made the Batman style video with all the clips and that's when it really took off.

Shame about the film.
gorgeous <3
Speaking of Neverending Story. This gay shit in an absolute jam and fits the movie perfectly, I always thought it was sung by a broad. youtube.com
AND THEY SAY THAT A HERO WILL SAVE US
The Limahl song wasn't in the original German release. Feels so fucking naked without it.
One of Giorgio Moroder's bangers for films. He made so much great stuff.
YOU REMIND ME OF THE BABE
That's crazy, I can't even imagine the movie without it.

Mrs. Robinson is a great pick.
This has TWO best songs.
radiohead - exit music (for a film) - written for baz luhrmann's romeo + juliet
Cat People(Putting out Fire) that he did with Bowie is a good one.

Moroder wrote Highway To the Danger Zone too. And Push It To the Limit from Scarface, amongst others. It's wild so few people nowadays don't even know who he is. The dude exuded cool 70s/80s cocaine club culture though.
Youtube algorithm recommended his top 25 song 5 days ago, you get that too?
Flashdance, Take My Breath Away, Call Me, etc. I can't think of anyone who had more movie music hits.
Nope, I bought a vinyl collection with a bunch of film soundtracks a few years back and over a few weeks of going through it and looking at who made what his name was the one that kept popping up on all the really big memorable stuff. Then I saw he won three Oscars for making movie songs and I was like OH, okay so he's the guy.
