(Finished October 12th, 2024) Part 1 of The Best Songs of Batman

Hello,

The James Bond movies are known to have some of the best songs associated with a movie series. However listening to the Lady Gaga song “The Joker” I realized that the Batman movies have a lot of great songs attached to them as well. Now when I say Batman, I mean the entire Batman universe. That would be Gotham, the villians, Arkham Asylum etc.

These first four songs are all by Prince 1) “Electric Chair”:

2) “Partyman”:

3) “Trust”:

4) featuring Sheena Easton “The Arms of Orion”:

These next four songs are from Danny Elfman’s brilliant mind. 5) “Attack of The Batwing”:

6) “Batman To The Rescue”:

7) “Up The Cathedral”:

8) “Batman Theme”:

9) Siouxsie and the Banshees “Face To Face”:

10) U2 “Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me”:

11) Seal “Kiss From A Rose”:

12) Massive Attack “The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game”:

13) The Offspring “Smash It Up”:

14) Jewel “Foolish Games”:

15) Smashing Pumpkins “The End Is The Beginning Is The End”:

16) Neal Hefti “The Batman Theme”:

17) Danny Elfman’s 1997 take on the original “Batman Theme”:
