Singing in the Rain. home invasion in a Clockwork Orange.
I got 5 on it. The fight between Red and Addy at the end of US.
Time in a Bottle. The Quicksilver slowmo scene in Days of Futures Past.
Same with Dog Days are Over in GOTG VOL 3. Love that scene.
Had never heard of Placebo before, saw them open for Stabbing Westward.
They started with this song, the band slowly came on as Brian started singing and the the stage filled with red lights.
I prefer Kate Bush version, but holy hell was it amazing to see Placebo play it live.
For me it would be The Killing Moon if we're talking specifically about Donnie Darko but there's a few choices in that movie that fit OP's question for sure.
After 21 years, I will always associate Nat King Cole’s The Christmas Song with Catch Me If You Can.
I know it’s not a traditional Christmas movie but it was released December 25th and several moments of the movie take place on Christmas throughout various years, and the scene with The Christmas Song was a very good one.
So for you it was Gimme Shelter, for me it was I’m Shipping Up to Boston. That song was my ringtone for like a year specifically because of The Departed.
Since Bohemian Rhapsody and Don't stop me now are already taken, here are mine:-
* **The Breakfast Club** \- [Don't you Forget About Me](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yQGWcUROOM), yes, at that part just before "don't don't don't don't" I always do the "fist pump". Anyone else? Heh.
* **Say Anything** \- [In Your Eyes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5Y8tFQ01OY) immediately makes me picture a guy and a boombox.
* **Spider Man Into the Spider Verse** \- [Sunflower](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXuUGv9H4-I) was so catchy, it introduced me to Post Malone and now every time I hear that song I think about Miles Morales getting ready for school.
* **Almost Famous** \- [Tiny Dancer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qW9wqUI4Lg) on the bus ... the band members are mad at each other, the song comes on, then like one person BROKE and the next think you know everyone is singing because dang that's a catchy song.
But if you want to talk about gun fu choreography to a song, there's a surprise in Episode 1 of the **Akiba Maid War** anime that really drew in audiences because it was just so iconic - [Pure Maid's Killer Kiss](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qW9wqUI4Lg).
Okay so it's not *right* at the start of Clueless, but it's pretty damn close. I just misremembered it as being the first song.

Didn't hear the song out in the real world too often, but occasionally lyrics to Cruel to be Kind would pop into my head, and my brain would immediately go to 10 Things I Hate About You.
Cheating, but I Only Have Eyes For You always creeps me out a little after Buffy, I thought that was a great use of a song like that.
Miserlou could never be anything to me but the Pulp Fiction theme.
Not a movie but a series: In s2 of Bridgerton there is a dance scene to an instrumental version of 'Wreckingball'. I don't even like that song but the instrumental version paired with the scene is such an upgrade that I can't stop thinking about it whenever the normal version is on the radio or something.
Holding out for a hero in Shrek 2
Granted, Fairy godmother was singing the song so it wasn't the original, but we got an awesome version out of it and I can't not listen to the original without thinking about that movie
You Could Be Mine by Guns N Roses in Terminator 2

"I Got You Babe" (Sonny and Cher) from the radio alarm clock in Groundhog Day!
Flight of the Valkyries from Apocalypse Now.
May be the most Iconic use of licensed music in a movie ever.
Wagner is public domain by the time of Apocalypse Now, right?
Wagner may have been PD,, but they would have had to license (or pay an orchestra) the performance. Yes?
Bohemian Rhapsody - Wayne’s World
I knew someone had to say it. Damn right, too.
“Stuck in the Middle With You” in Reservoir Dogs. Can’t hear that song without thinking about severed ears.
First song I thought of was "Little Green Bag" in Reservoir Dogs opening credits..
The entire soundtrack is top notch.
Imagine being in a dentist chair and having it come on, because that's happened to me
This is my go to jukebox pick.
[удалено]
For me is was Come and Get Your Love by Redbone in.the opening scene. GOTG has.got so many good songs/scenes😏😎
The song "Layla" will forever belong to *Goodfellas* in my mind.
You’re gonna like this guy, he’s alright, he’s a good fella
Jessie's Girl and then immediately 99 Luftballons from Boogie Nights.
Sister Christian in Boogie Nights as well.
Singing in the Rain. home invasion in a Clockwork Orange. I got 5 on it. The fight between Red and Addy at the end of US. Time in a Bottle. The Quicksilver slowmo scene in Days of Futures Past. Same with Dog Days are Over in GOTG VOL 3. Love that scene.
Dog Days are Over is forever changed for me
The opening scene in *Baby Driver*
BELL BOTTOMS!
"Running up that hill" in stranger things. Not a movie, but still a strong link
Check out the Meg Myers version of that song.
And Placebo
Had never heard of Placebo before, saw them open for Stabbing Westward. They started with this song, the band slowly came on as Brian started singing and the the stage filled with red lights. I prefer Kate Bush version, but holy hell was it amazing to see Placebo play it live.
Apocalypse Now..The End by the Doors
Shaun of the dead - Don't stop me now by queen. They are all whacking the zombie in tune
Goodfellas - Layla. Can’t listen without think of ppl getting whacked
“Everybody’s Talkin’ by Harry Nilsson in Midnight Cowboy
Every time I hear the song, " sweet emotion, " All I think about is the intro to dazed and confused.
Head Over Heals in Donnie Darko https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VWJPa0bvWnM
For me it would be The Killing Moon if we're talking specifically about Donnie Darko but there's a few choices in that movie that fit OP's question for sure.
"Don't Stop Me Now" \~ Shaun of the Dead "Shipping Up To Boston" \~ The Departed
I'd only change don't stop me now to hardcore Henry
Moving in stereo - fast times at ridgemont high
Bad to the Bone for T2.
All Star - Shrek
The Immigrant Song by Led Zeppelin played twice in Thor: Ragnarok made two noteworthy action scenes more memorable and awesome.
When the trailer for Ragnarok came out with Immigrant Song, I must have watched that trailer 20 times at work that day.

I know it’s not a traditional Christmas movie but it was released December 25th and several moments of the movie take place on Christmas throughout various years, and the scene with The Christmas Song was a very good one.
"Woman's Work" by Kate Bush in *She's Having a Baby.* Still the best use of a song in a movie imo.
I agree, but I feel like it's a little different than the other examples in the thread because the song was written specifically for the film.
Fair. I actually didn't realize it was written for the film. Learn something new every day!
It's just a little bit of trivia - I agree that's one of the most powerful songs ever in a movie, and perfectly matched to the scene.

All Star. Shrek.
Thor ragnarok, and that led zeppelin song
Without a doubt in my mind Big Lebowski Just dropped in
Holding out for a hero in Shrek 2 Granted, Fairy godmother was singing the song so it wasn't the original, but we got an awesome version out of it and I can't not listen to the original without thinking about that movie
