Don't Argue With Us — These Are the Best Movie Soundtracks of 2018

Why it's great: Although it's set in 2045, Steven Spielberg's sci-fi drama features mostly fun, funky music from the '70s and '80s, bridging generational gaps between the young and old by employing songs that are more or less cemented in our musical culture. You'll instantly recognise Tears For Fears' "Everybody Wants to Rule the World," Prince's "I Wanna Be Your Lover," and Earth Wind & Fire's "Can't Hide Love." Embedded in all of these oldies, there's a beautiful, futuristic rendition of Gene Wilder's "Pure Imagination" by Bryan Nguyen and Merethe Soltvedt.
Best track: "I Wanna Be Your Lover" by Prince
