8:14 - If I didn't post the theme to the 90's X-Men cartoon here, I'd never forgive myself

11:02 - It's since been rebranded as "R U Talkin' R.E.M. RE: ME?", but definitely worth a listen!

30:05 - Steve wasn't a fan, but feel free to make your own judgments and check out this soundtrack from "The Great Gatsby"
