I believe the song you're referring to is called the Pink Room.  I'll have to check my soundtrack CD when I get home, but I think it's not a real band but a Lynch/Badalamenti concotion.
You are probably right - Though Gang was a Lynch/Badalamenti made-up band, but I thought the bar scene had Julee Cruise standing on stage singing, isn't the Pink Room a different scene?
What?

If memory serves, the Julee Cruise scene occurred out front in the bar and the pink room was a back room to the bar where everyone got wild and the chicks took off their shirts. Big%20smile

I believe Ulver made the soundtrack to the norwegian movie "Svidd Neger"(translated: "burnt negro").

I like that movie, eventhough it has a quite odd plot.

Big%20smile I love Those Films! As for Children of men, it did have King Crimson in it and the Pink Floyd pig, but I thought it wasn't a very good film.

28 Days later s good and has East Hastings by GY!BE playing most the way through!

Oh and Comfortably numb was in an episode of the Sopranos once lol.

In a clockwork orange he was going to use Atom Heart Mother, but they didnt let him.

The Departed has a fairly decent cover version of Comfortably Numb in it.

the movie is definitely worth watching too. it features the top of the crop of German actors, and I have to say that Guru Guru, especially Mani Neumeier, hold up their own against them. of course they more or less only had top play themselves, but Neumeier has a few scenes where he goes beyond that

I had totally forgotten, and unless I missed it this hasn't been mentioned yet, Mike Oldfield did the soundtrack to The Killing Fields.

If Prog-Related counts (hopefully it does), I remember that Lars von Trier's wonderful yet disturbing Breaking the Waves features Deep Purple's "Child in Time", as well as other Seventies classics (Bowie comes to mind as well).

You beat me to that one.
In a somewhat similar vein, Explosions in the Sky did the soundtrack for Friday Night Lights. I don't normally like sports movies but I might just have to see it because of the soundtrack.

Keith Emerson did do the music for Nighthawks. PG did the music for the Last temptation of Christ and Birdy.
