Hi SamGolden,

You mean, in which movies or series can we find a MK song or parts of it --- apart from the soundtracks that he wrote, of course?

For instance, I recall hearing Darling Pretty in the 1996 film Twister.

Interesting thread, and I'm sure we've discussed this old chestnut before but it will be good to see some contributions....

also although not a series or film 'WOL' was used in the most recent advert for ASDA!!!! :o

"Young Sheldon" first episode starts with him playing with a train while "Walk of Life" sounds. The best way to start a new comedy!
You might get lucky, now and then

Honestly, I don't know about Mark's music sounding good in any movie, but any one of his songs would make it a perfect song for the credits for sure.
