Soundtracks are very important in not only movies but also in video games because most times it synchronizes with the pictures and contents. I've never seen a silent movie in my life, maybe it existed before I was born I can't say, but as long as I've known myself as a living being, soundtracks and background sounds have always been in movies and even in video games.
Music in films helps to establish settings and also adds to the uniqueness of storytelling which helps to express emotions such as sadness, happiness, love, hurt, fear excitement etc. There are some soundtracks in which I'm familiar with to the extent that I don't need to be at the place where the movie is been viewed for me to know that they are watching the movie.
Today I will be sharing with you all some of my favorites melodious soundtracks in movies and how it reinforces narrative development.

- Dìde (Arise) in the Movie called Enoch
Dìde (Arise) is a Yoruba language soundtrack in the movie Enoch. The movie is a heart touching Biopic of Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye the General overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of Christ (RCCG). The music in the movie Enoch talks about great re-awakening in the lives of Christian faithful, their mandate to preach the gospel according to Jesus commandment and also to remain them to be fervent in their Christian race.
- Love will find a way in Lion King (Anime)
Love will find a way is my favorite of all time because I saw this wonderful anime movie called Lion King when I was still a kid and the soundtrack talks about how the mutual love between Kiara and Kovu is too strong to the extent that nothing can keep them apart. The song is all about how true love will work itself out and it surely does for both of them in the movie. I so much love this soundtrack and I can sing it lyrics even while asleep.
- Can I have this dance in High school musical
I can never forget this wonderful soundtrack also, although the movie is all about schooling and musical display but I loved all it's soundtracks even to the Wildcats theme song and chants. The music is all about love, trust and the promise of getting together.
- Lift me up in Black Panther
Lift me up is the soundtrack album of the movie Black panther; Wakanda forever. This music is all about paying tribute to those who have lost their lives and it's also dedicated to Chadwick Boseman who lost his life to cancer. It's an emotional song but I loved it because it reflects about life and death and also for those that depart the world to keep those that are alive safe.
Conclusion
Soundtracks are fundamental elements that are essential in movies which helps to interpret the roles and all components of a film. It clearly expresses emotions that makes viewers stayed glued to their screen.
