Songs from Movies, TV & Musicals (Bevan Beats #10)
It’s where we share the music we love—by theme, by vibe, or just whatever we’ve had on repeat.
You’ll find this playlist on
YouTube
and
Spotify.
As host of our film & TV podcast What Do You Wanna Watch?,
it felt right to pull together a set of standout tracks from film, TV and a few stage musicals destined for the big screen.
(Plenty more picks aren’t on Spotify—such is life!)
-
Another Day of Sun — La La Land Cast (La La Land)
Jaw-dropping opener with joyful choreography and deceptively upbeat “keep chasing it” energy.
-
Life’s a Happy Song — Jason Segel, Amy Adams & Walter (The Muppets)
Classic Muppets charm with a modern sheen—an irresistible curtain-raiser.
-
Waving Through a Window — Ben Platt (Dear Evan Hansen)
Anxious, aching and universal—an anthem for feeling unseen.
-
Give Up — Jordan Hare, Jon Prasida, Craig Hyde-Smith & Geraldine Viswanathan (Emo the Musical)
The film’s messy; the hook’s immaculate. Certified earworm.
-
Upbeat Inspirational Song About Life — Michael Bolton & the Teen Titans Cast (Teen Titans Go! To the Movies)
Keytar-toting white tiger + rubber-hose animation = instant grin.
-
You’re Welcome — Dwayne Johnson (Moana)
Maui’s swagger never fails. Also shoutouts to “Shiny” and “How Far I’ll Go”.
-
Both of You — Zach Callison (Steven Universe)
Rebecca Sugar magic—healing, honest and musically tender.
-
Wait for It — Leslie Odom Jr. (Hamilton)
“I am the one thing in life I can control.” Burr’s philosophy, distilled.
-
Falling Slowly — Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová (Once)
Oscar-winning, heart-on-sleeve duet that lingers long after.
-
Bad Idea — Jessie Mueller & Drew Gehling (Waitress)
Messy, human and catchy—like much of Waitress’ songbook.
-
Carol Brown — Flight of the Conchords (Flight of the Conchords)
Exes form a choir to roast Jemaine—peak Conchords.
-
I Believe — Andrew Rannells (The Book of Mormon)
Earnestness meets outrageous comedy; a show-stopping conversion attempt.
