For me?

That would be 'Resevior Dogs' - 'Stuck in the Middle with You'. I simply cannot listen to that song anymore without having a slightly creepy feeling...

Well, if we skip songs that were specifically the theme for the movie (I've Had the Time of My Life - Dirty Dancing), I would have to say "Hero" from Shrek 2 is the winner.

I hated it when Fantasia sang it on American idol, but now I love it. (Still hate Fantasia's version, though)

"So I Married an Axe Murderer" - "Saturday Night" by Bay City Rollers - Absolutely hated the song before the movie but the scene that uses it is so damn funny I actually like the song now. "There She Goes" by the LA's - Again, hated the song but it was such a fun movie I kinda like it now.

Movie: Natural Born Killers - Song: You Belong to Me

I absolutely cannot stand Bob Dylan, but having this song in this movie has somehow just turned it into one of my most favorites.... Scary huh?

And I 100% agree with you Nelzie ... I will never ever be able to listen to that song in the same way again. :-)

Singin In The Rain from A Clockwork Orange.

"In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel comes first to mind. From the movie "Say Anything." Great song, great movie.

I'm sure there are others but I can't think of any right now.

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?

Yeah, but you really only like the Saturday Night song when sung by Mike Myers in a Scottish accent, right? That's the way I always think of it.

Everybody Knows (Concrete Blonde) used in Pump Up the Volume... that really impacted me, in a good way!

Looks like it isn't actually on the soundtrack album though...

This might help a bit though ;)

All I have to say is.... Look at the size of that boy's head. I'm not kidding, it's like an orange on a toothpick. Well that's a huge noggin. That's a virtual planetoid. Has it's own weather system. HEAD! MOVE!

HEAD! PAPER! NOW! Move that mellon of yours and get the paper if you can. Haulin' that gargantuan cranium about. I'm not kidding that boys head is like sputnik, spherical but quite pointy at parts.

Now that was offside wasn't it? He'll be cryin' himself to sleep tonight on his huge pilla.

lol The sad thing is I've seen this movie enough to have memorized nearly all of it.

Maybe that's why I had a hard time finding it. Incidentally, I found this link by searching for the name of the song. This way everyone can hear it:

What a great song!

Donnie Darko - almost every song on this amazing soundtrack changed these songs for me, especially Killing Moon & Mad World

that is one freaky movie, mirdonamy. I saw half of it on tv, and they never tell you what movie it is, so I was like "What the heck is this anyway??" Now I have it on DVD. Creepy stuff, good music.
