Home Alone and Home Alone 2 soundtracks: Every song in films
Both soundtracks were composed in part by John Williams.
The Home Alone movies may have been released in the 1990s, but they remain two of the most cherished Christmas comedies of all time.
This is thanks in part to their epic soundtracks, both of which feature a score by John Williams and a myriad of festive hits.
Home Alone follows Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin), an eight-year-old who's left home alone after his family accidentally go on their Christmas holiday to Paris without him.
Chaos ensues as two burglars try to break in and Kevin is forced to defend the family home on his own.
The comedy proved so popular it has spawned five sequels and spin-offs in total, including the recent Disney Plus film Home Sweet Home Alone starring This Way Up’s Aisling Bea and Catastrophe’s Rob Delaney.
So, which songs make up Home Alone and Home Alone 2's iconic soundtracks?
From Alan Jackson’s Holly Jolly Christmas and Mel Tormé’s Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas to Leslie Bricusse and John Williams's Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, read on for a full list of the songs in the Home Alone movies.
