Songs that remind you of a scene in a movie
Permalink Closed


OK maybe a lame poll but what is that one song that every time you hear it reminds you from a scene in a movie?
For example
every time I hear Try a Little Tenderness by Otis Redding always reminds me of the scene in pretty in pink where Ducky comes sliding into the record store and sings to Andie.

What's yours?

Off the top of my head:

If You Want to be Happy - Mermaids
Kissing You by Desiree - Romeo+Juliet
Hold On by Wilson Phillips - Harold and Kumar

Not movies, but
Nobody Knows Me by Lyle Lovett was played in the episode of 90210 where Dylan's bride is killed. I'm getting misty just thinking about it wink eta: he clutched her wedding dress and cried. It was heartwrenching!

Somewhere over the Rainbow by Israel somebody (I can't remember his last name) was played in the ER episode where Dr. Green dies

Breathe Me by Sia will always remind me of the last scene of the last episode of Six Feet Under.

Pretty obvious but it would have to be What is Love? - Night at the Roxbury!

Good poll Collette!

* Tiny Dancer - Elton John- the bus scene in Almost Famous
* In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel - one of the most famous scences in a movie - John Cusack w/the boom box over his head in Say Anything.

He he, I was just singing "Hold On" in the shower the other day and thinking of Harold & Kumar. The trailer for their sequel is online now.

Other songs that always make me think of movies:
"Stuck in the Middle With You" = Reservoir Dogs
"All By Myself" = Bridget Jones

I am almost embarrassed to post this, but :

Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" from Down To You with Freddie Prinze Jr & Julia Stiles.
Bush "Mouth" from An American Werewolf in Paris
Jill Sobule "Supermodel" from Clueless
"Laid" ("the bed is on fire" song) from American Pie

Apparently I only have a memory for these things when they involve crappy teen movies!

These were absolutely the first two I thought of.
The third was You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) from The Wedding Singer.
And then thinking of TV, the theme song from Greatest American Hero (Believe it or Not) makes me think of Seinfeld and George's outgoing answering machine message.

"Question" by the Old 97s reminds me of when Turk proposes to Carla on Scrubs. Ok, not a movie, but...

And "Glasgow Love Theme" reminds me of Love Actually, even though I can't remember at which part exactly it is played in the movie. But it's played on the DVD menu

City of Blinding Lights--Devil Wears Prada during the Paris montage. Real life significance--I first saw DWP on the plane on my way toParis and I totally started getting so excited during that montage because it felt like I was living in my very own movie!
