For me....

"Right Back Where We Started From" by Maxine Nightengale.

The movie...SLAP SHOT

The scene.....the team bus rolling down the road in the middle of the night.

Never fails. Every time I hear it, that pops into my head.

What about you??

"Tiny Dancer" by Elton John ... the tour bus singalong in Almost Famous
"The End" by The Doors ... the opening moments of Apocalypse Now

On the other hand, some songs have been so overused ("I Feel Good" by James Brown, for instance) that I can't remember what movies they were in.

Same. :) Another memorable one for people my age is John Cusack with the radio over his head playing "In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel.

"In the Air Tonight" makes me think of that scene in the Miami Vice pilot. Whenever I'm driving and it comes on the radio, especially.

That era Phil Collins always reminds me of Miami Vice too. Risky Business was before my time. I don't think I've seen it even to this day (other than the famous Old Time Rock and Roll scene).

Wasn't it only a year or so before Miami Vice?

"Sister Christian" is a big one from the movie Boogie Nights.

I got introduced to Queen through "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Wayne's World" so it's hard not to headbang during the rock breakdown.

Ah yes, but my formative years. I was 13, and it was rated R, so by the time I was of close enough age to see it, other things had come along and it was "old". I was 15 when Miami Vice came on, and it was immediately accessible, being on TV. Grabbed my attention with the then-amazing mix of music and cutting edge stylish camera work. Perfect storm.

"Sweet Emotion" by Aerosmith always makes me think of and forces me (FORCES, I tell you) to rewatch "Dazed & Confused."

"She Must Be Somebody's Baby" flashes me back to the scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High where Jennifer Jason Leigh's character loses her virginity.

Any time I hear the xylophone intro to the Beach Boys' "All Summer Long" I picture the closing credits to "American Graffiti"

Tiny Dancer still equals Bailey Quarters to me.



Atlantis by Donovan now equals Pesci, De Niro, and Liotta kicking the shit out of Billy Batts in Goodfellas.

Stardust by Nat King Cole equals the opening scene of My Favorite Year.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game equals the Marx Brothers in A Night at the Opera

Singing in the Rain by Gene Kelly equals the Droogies raping and battering in Clockwork Orange

Any Way You Want It by Journey is Rodney Dangerfield dancing on the golf course on Caddyshack.
