40 Greatest Musical Moments in Film

I love lists. I love to read them, I love to write them, I love to check things off of them. I'm type A and I just can't help it. This list in particular brings me job because it brings together two things I love, music, and movies with good music in them. I am sure all of you can think of others you think should have made the list and even I don't think 10 Things I Hate About You should have made the list twice.
