Throughout much of the 70's, 80's and 90's, movie soundtracks were very popular with films worth their weight in gold. But do you know what the biggest selling movie soundtrack of all time is?
When you think of movie soundtracks, your mind will probably think of Dirty Dancing, Saturday Night Fever or a musical such as The Sound Of Music, Grease or West Side Story. All of these had soundtracks which made the movie memorable, but the biggest selling soundtrack was not from any of them.
The biggest selling soundtrack taken from a movie is none other than The Bodyguard. The songs taken from this mixed review movie were mostly songs performed by the films star, Whitney Houston. Some might say that the soundtrack is in many ways better then the movie, but it probably wouldn't have sold so many copies had it not been accompanied by a big screen story.
The album has sold over 45 million CD copies worldwide making it not only the biggest soundtrack but also one of the biggest selling albums of all time.
