  I don't know if it will be the same in Turkey, but I do know that if I do a search for a piece of music that won't show here in the US on YT, by going to YT first, that I have been able to find the few that won't play from the original person's post.

Lorenzo, thank you for your also detailed summation of your opinions of each of the pieces.  Clap Takes a lot of work to do this!  I am also honoured that you found my first choice to be a potential contender.  *curtseys*

Great job on you list, as to the film title, I know it as The Double Life of Véronique (or the full French title) and so put it that that way on my master list, but have seen it as Veronika (with a k), but I expect that there are various variations, and of course if you want it as Veronica,, then I will list it that way. In the movie the characters are Véronique and Weronika as I recall.

Thanks Lewian BTW. Hope you're Ok in your giant space-pill. Did you pay the bill for it, or stolen it from an extraplanar pharmacy? The earth is sick, and we may need that medicine. Ying Yang

LOGAN

1) Morricone - L'arena. Morricone is famous for his melodies, for an intrusive narrative music that almost steals the scene to the film. This, on the other hand, is descriptive music, background - it's only partly melodic. Beautiful, but it is not one of those that exalts me. 

2) Willow's Song. Refined minimalist music, intense voice, atmospheric mood. The singer reminded me of Nico for the tone of her voice and her pastosity. 

3) Sexopolis. This is the typical soundtrack, where listening to it you wonder what images the director is showing, it's a kind of pret-a-porter. 

My fave is the second song, but... well you have posted very refined music, Logan, as always, and as a lover of music and great connoisseur of cinema. But this time I guess you won't get my vote, sorry. Sooner or later it had to happen, Winkso far you have always posted something that I voted for or I was undecided until the end whether to vote or not.


PSYCHEDELIC PAUL.
1) Atmospheric music for a grandeur film. It doesnt exalt me.

GENTLE AND GIANT
1) Atmospheric, instrumental music that progresses, and so you can imagine the scenes of the film become stronger, more involving and faster.... and in the end what does it happen? Very well done, but in my opinion, music that loses a lot unrelated to the film

SNICOLETTE
1) NINO ROTA. I dont love Zeffirelli but I like this film and the actress. The music is rich, full of pathos, from melancholy to passion and tenderness. A contender.

2) Paddy Moloney. I like the Chieftans, and this is a typical folk song of them. Very good.

3) Eurythmics. Annie Lennox's voice is wonderful but I'm not a fan of her. Good atmosphere but the music dont touch my heart.

My fave is Nino Rota but Moloney is closed.


GRUMPYPROGFAN
1) Spinal Tap: the truth? I dont like it. Tastes are tastes.

PROPHESY DISASTER
1) I don't like to repeat myself but ... I don't like this song. I know, it's Morricone, but God also seems to have forged a creation with some flaws. 

RUSHFAN4
1) STAR WARS. Very pompous music, with wind instruments. Martial, as befits the theme. Definitely excellent composition. But I don't think he will get on the podium.

TCAT
1) Mark Isham. Minimalistic music, almost ambient music. Good, but it doesnt thrill me. I like more other soundtracks written by Isham.


SHADOWWYZARD
1) Tan Dun- Music halfway between descriptive and narrative. Inspired. Contender.

2) and 3) Batman and Conan: I can't stand American action movies. The hyper-fast editing, the deafening and pompous music until it becomes almost involuntarily dissonant. In itself the musical score is appreciable, there is some good work underneath, but the arrangement weighs it down a lot. Music is good, only for my stomach it is not easy to digest.

The first, imo.

LEWIAN
1) Wim Mertens. I dont like Peter Greenaway, director who lacks the measure, from my point of view, But this music is classical music, which can also be listened to without associating it with a film and which has an inspired musical score full of pathos. Contender.

2) Insects... Oh well but this is a guilty pleasure, Christian!

3) La dolce vita... oh, ok, Fellini with Mastroianni... this film and melody they have made history...how may I criticize it?

Number 1, imo. (4) Sakamoto: near to the guilty pleasure!)


TCAT NO. 2 THE REVENGE!
The Lost Boys... I dont know this film. Good song, Mike. I like this one more than Isham's song.

MELTDOWNER
1) Aaron Copland... Oh, classical music here... too classic for my ears!

SHADOWYZARD NO. 2 THE REVENGE
Even this one, in my opinion, is a guilty pleasure!

MATHMAN0806
1) Gone Girl... I remember that film... she is terrible (I dont know the right word in English). Ambient music, in the background... It doesnt thrill me.

2) Oh, old fashioned but good music. I have fun to listen to it.


SHADOWYZARD NO. 3 THE REVENGE of the REVENGE
Sorry I cant stand Harry Potter.

TCAT NO. 3 THE REVENGE OF THE REVENGE
I love that film, because I love John Goodman. From good to better, Mike.

RAFF
Oh, Raff, you choose the delicate one, not Mrs Robinson... Contender.

Micky
Do you know Palombella Rossa by Nanni Moretti? If not, Raff would explain to you the reason why Doctor Zivago recalls that film to my mind. Anyway, great music. Contender. I prefer the first song.

RAFF NO. 2 THE REVENGE.
Music for an action movie... hmmm... too bombastic to my ears. I prefer Garfunkel's voice.

MICKY NO. 2 THE REVENGE.
I love Peckinpah but I prefer the music for Zivago.

SHADOWYZARD AGAIN AND AGAIN
Very good music here... But anyway I prefer your first choice.

MickY: Paganini? Paganini doesnt repeat!Wink

CRISTI
O my God! Has anyone seen this movie? Hedwig Fenech, the erotic dream of my generation. This, however, is one of hER first films, a detective thriller, before She started making junk films from the sexy comedy. Hedwig Fenech! now I'm going to download this movie on Emule! Hedwig, Hedwig .... I love you!

MICKY AGAIN AND AGAIN
The fifth element vs Doctor Zivago?
No game.

Dr WU 23.
Hitchcock.
I prefer your first choice, old fashioned but great music.

@Shadowyzard: Indeed, great job there, thanks! I almost regret not having nominated the Insects just for their defying of what seem to have become the standards of this poll. But Mertens deserves some recognition, and the Insects thing is honestly not one of their outstanding pieces, of which unfortunately either I know that they are not movie soundtracks, or I don't know what they were made for.
