From Spinal Tap's spiritual heirs to Elton's rhinestone highs, Britain does the messy music movie better than most. Rank the moments that stuck with you.

Rocketman's 'Crocodile Rock' Levitation
That Troubadour scene where the audience literally floats is peak British biopic showmanship. Cheesy? Maybe. Iconic? Absolutely.
Bohemian Rhapsody's Live Aid Recreation
Historically dodgy, emotionally undeniable. The 20-minute finale had cinemas air-drumming in unison whether you liked it or not.

24 Hour Party People's Tony Wilson Monologues
Manchester's Madchester era told with sneering wit and pigeon droppings on Bez. Still the smartest British music film going.

Sing Street's Rooftop Fantasy Sequence
Okay, technically Irish, but the John Hughes-meets-Smiths energy captured every awkward UK teen's bedroom-mirror popstar delusion.

Nowhere Boy's Young Lennon Rage
Before Beatlemania there was mummy issues and a Rickenbacker. Divisive, understated, and quietly devastating.
