Songs synonymous with films

MJsGhost · Nov 19, 2013

There are certain songs that whenever I hear them, I can't help but instantly think of the movie they featured in...

Mine include: (you can probably tell from these that I'm in my mid 30s!)

This.

An obvious one here, "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life"-Monty Python's Life of Brian.

Tarantino films/soundtracks in general are a great shout. There are plenty of songs that bring it to mind, but for me, Pulp Fiction is most linked to:

Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo · Nov 19, 2013

Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins immediately makes me think of Top Gun.

Green Onions by Booker T and the MG's makes me think of the race between Jon Milner and Bob Falfa near the end of American Graffiti.

I went straight to Guy Ritchie geezer flicks, I wanna be your dog by The Stooges (from the 60's) reminds me of Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels from the Noughties, madness..... whereas ****ing In the Bushes by Oasis and Angel by Massive always make me think of Snatch.

Nibble · Nov 19, 2013

Lust for life - Iggy Pop - Trainspotting
Look Back In Anger - Oasis - Our Friends In The North (Okay, tv series but what an ending, makes me cry every time)
Wicked Game - Chris Issak - Wild at Heart
Turn Turn Turn - Forrest Gump
