To me, music is not just a melody but something which changes the frame of mind. No one in the world can live without music, from babies cry to Thunderstorms, music is everywhere. I usually like hearing background musics which are played in the movies and always keep humming some tunes. It is the first thing that the movie viewer sees and hears and a good title theme music creates a great impression for a movie to begin with. A good movie theme is catchy, and it evokes the mood of the movie. Some of my favorites are :
Jeans - A.R.Rahman-Very catchy, peppy AND melodious, the brand of music that we have got used to from Rahman. This is the perfect piece to hum along.

Bombay-A.R.Rahman-This is what made the Bombay movie complete—the Bombay theme, calling it brilliant would be an understatement! Naveen’s flute was nectarine.

Chariots of fire-Vangelis- An electronic score might be considered ill-suited to a period piece, it worked beyond anyone's expectations.

Asoka - A.R.Rahman- The historical classical piece. On hearing you feel like its giving life to a broken heart.

Titanic-The portrait and final scene- James Homer. Masterpiece from James. This can break the silence between loved ones. Its a delight to watch the final scene.
