Pirates of the Caribbean series: Most popular songs (21–30)
I See Dead PeopleHansu Jimā
It has a somewhat sorrowful mood, doesn’t it? You wonder whether they saw a ghost ship or someone washed up on the beach.
It begins with an oboe-like sound, and while it feels sad, the way the piece gradually grows more grand is part of its appeal.
That sense of being more than just quiet might describe the overall atmosphere of the film’s music, too.
The shift partway through into a more heart-pounding tone also creates a really great vibe.
AngelicaHans Zimmer / Eduardo Cruz / Rodrigo y Gabriela
This piece features a passionate, distinctly Spanish guitar sound that leaves a strong impression.
It’s the track used in Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, and as the title suggests, it’s the theme song for the film’s heroine, Angelica.
Angelica is Jack Sparrow’s former lover.
Perhaps because of her mysterious allure, the music’s tone also conveys a somewhat shadowy atmosphere.
As the theme for a key character in the movie, it’s a work that enjoys fervent support from fans of the series.

Bootstrap’s BootstrapsKurausu Baderuto
It’s a cool track that feels like it stirs up your fighting spirit.
Overall it’s awesome, and personally I think the percussion is especially cool! The development makes your heart race, with a boldly heroic vibe—it’s a fiercely brave piece.
It really makes you think about how reckless pirates can be.
It even includes the main theme, so some of you might be like, “I love this track!!”
Swords CrossedKurausu Baderuto
This piece, used in the first film in the series, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.
It plays in the scene where the moonlight reveals the truth—showing what kind of beings Barbossa and his crew really are—and it heightens the eeriness.
The track itself shifts from a quiet intro to a dynamic sound in the latter half.
The sense of foreboding keeps building.
And while it’s certainly scary… it’s also incredibly cool!
TreasureJefu Zaneri
How would you feel if you discovered a treasure that no one had ever touched? Would you be thrilled at the thought of striking it rich? Or would you want to keep it a secret? This song, with its mysterious atmosphere, is aptly titled “Treasure,” and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say it represents the unknown.
It feels like a piece that expresses the secrets and past engraved within a treasure, doesn’t it?
A Family AffairHansu Jimā
It starts with a heavy, thudding intro, then shifts into driving strings—such a cool progression.
Listening to it makes you excited to see where the movie will go next, doesn’t it? It really reminds me that the soundtrack is a vital part of a film.
The song’s developments create a variety of moods, reflecting the way the story twists and turns.
BlackbeardHansu Jimā
If you were to use it in real life, it’s the kind of song you’d want to play when you’ve just seen something weird (lol).
But that’s exactly how full of suspicious vibes it is—the music perfectly captures the feeling of “I just saw something weird!!” Partway through, it ramps up with an intensity that feels like you’re being attacked.
The brass blasting triumphantly is super cool, too.
It’s a track with a heart-pounding progression.
