Do You Pay Attention to the Soundtrack?

I wonder that when you watch a movie do you pay attention to the soundtrack? I know there are movies with little music or ones with music that has no words and written specifically for dramatic effect in the movie. But what about the other ones? Sometimes after having watched a movie and I hear a song I will then associate the song with the movie. For example I once watched a television movie with Farrah Faucett that had the song Hungry Like the Wolf in it and now when I hear that song I think of Farrah. I know that movies put these songs in them to make the movie more appealing to the audience and probably to have you remember the movie by hearing a specific song and they may hope that you buy the movie or buy the soundtrack or both. So do you care about or pay any attention to the soundtrack in a movie? What is one of your favorite movie soundtracks of all time?

For Me I would Have to say That My Favorite all time is Lord Of the Rings, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Transformers.... Okay a lot and I cant list them all but I love the music. I think that if the show or movie's music is good enough at the beginning of the show it will draw me in and make me think that there is something really interesting to watch. Soundtracks matter :D

I think soundtrack of the movies is also important as the story itself. They are there to support the movie and the story or some specific situation in the movie. A good movie always have a good soundtrack came along with them, even just instrumental music. Personally I always pay attention to the soundtrack of the movie. And if I like the movie, I will try to search for the soundtrack. And my most favorite soundtrack until now is still "I'll be there for you" from television series "F.R.I.E.N.D.S" and "You'll be in my heart" from Tarzan movie.

I am never into movies much. I only see action movies say, bond movies. The other movie that I had seen was long long back. Sound of music.
