I've never seen the whole movie, but shomehow I manage to see that scene time and time again. Everytime I hear it on the radio I ask my boyfriend, "What movie is that from again??"

Run, don't walk, to Blockbuster. Rent it. Maybe even buy it. It will help you young'uns understand us "old" 80s folks. ;o)
another one I thought of... Miss Amanda Jones by the Rolling Stones from Some Kind of Wonderful |
Whoa, wow, man this makes me think back...The Breakfast Club and that song, "Don't you Forget about me" was something else...it totally set the history of pop culture for us teens who grew up in the 80's....it's funny now that folks never have seen it or rememeber it...just proves how old I'm getting...I must say that movie is a recorded "documentry" of the life of a teenager in the 80's was like...I can't imagine what it's like now....probably much worse...in having to deal with so much in choices, as we adults put up with, as a teen today....more pressure from the real world outside from school. |

Moulin Rouge irrevocably changed all the songs I have always known.

Thankfully I have no hipster cred to destroy, but I really loved that version of "Cruising" too for some reason.
I also loved what the movie Adaptation did to the song "Happy Together." I thought the scene when Donald sings that song to his brother was absolutely hilarious, but no one else in the theater seemed to agree.

Originally posted by K-Rob: Actually, while we're on this topic, can anyone help me figure out who plays a certaing song from the movie "La Bamba?" It's the last song in the movie and plays right before the credits. I originally thought it was a Ritchie Valens song but I've never been able to find it. It's an instrumental song played with a slide quitar. I love the song but have no idea where to find it. Anyone have any ideas? |
The song is called "sleep walking" the artist is Santos & Johnny. It was also at the begining, I believe, as well and I can't hear it now with out thinking of plane crash into the school yard at the begining. |

The one that gets me is Stand by me. Every time It hear it I think of kids walking down a river bank to see a dead body. |

I think the title is "Son of a Preacher Man" from Tarrantino's Pulp Fiction. It's when Vincent Vega (John Travolta) goes to the boss' house to pickup the boss' wife, Mrs Mia Wallace (Uma Thurman). The song is playing in the background and Vincent just hit some heroin while she's doing a line of coke and comes walking out barefoot. Its so surrealistic that it just seems to overpower any personal experience and it defies logic as I understand it but the context appears to be the most commonplace existence for either of the characters.
I don't hear that song nowadays that I don't think back to that scene.

There is an organ solo at a funeral in the movie The Big Chill which becomes a subtle intro to the song "You Can't Always Get What You Want" by the Rolling Stones - I laugh every time I see that part of that movie

We'll Meet Again (I think the cover by Peggy Lee) from closing scenes of the movie Dr. Strangelove.
