2. Can you tell me the name and artist of a song used in a particular movie?

I highly recommend checking out the Internet Movie Database, the most comprehensive film guide on the internet. This site usually has soundtrack listings for a particular movie. Just use their simple but powerful search engine to locate the movie in question. If you know the song but not the movie, use the Advanced Search, Word Search, and select Soundtracks as the search criteria.

3. What is the difference between a 'Score' and a 'Soundtrack'?

The 'Soundtrack' of a film typically contains popular songs used to help promote the film. For example, The Bodyguard is a soundtrack, using Whitney Houston's song to help promote the film.

The 'Score' of a film is the composed (orchestrated or electronic) music underlying the drama, action or terror of a film. It is composed by talented artists working together to enhance the experience of the moving image.

4. I'm looking for the name of the music used in a particular Movie Trailer.

Usually, movie trailers use songs and/or scores from other films to advertise their films. This is done because movie trailers are released to build up the film before the final score is cut. An example of this is the use of James Horner's Aliens in the trailer for the Abyss. You can find a comprehensive Movie Trailer list by visiting Soundtrack.net.

5. What is the song in the night club scene in Basic Instinct?
