10 Greatest Musical Moments In Martin Scorsese Movies

4. The Color Of Money: Warren Zevon - Werewolves Of London

Warren Zevon’s piano-driven rock and roll anthem is the perfect backing to Tom Cruise’s cocky young pool prodigy strutting around the table sinking shot after shot. Cruise’s Vincent can’t help but show off and as Werewolves of London pounds along, complete with signature werewolf “wah-ooooohs”, it likewise exudes swagger and confidence.

As Vincent parades around the table, using his cue as a sword and playing trick shots on a whim, Scorsese found the perfect accompaniment to make this shameless showboating feel all the more arrogant.
