[@erikdaniels0n]

As great as the Mr. Blue Sky scene in Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 is, NOTHING can top the “Come and Get Your Love” and “Hooked On A Feeling” scenes from the first Guardians of the Galaxy

[@l05555]

This!

[@kelseyredford219]

Right, There were so many great songs on both Guardians soundtracks that I now equate to Guardians, it's kind of weird that they picked this one.

[@Lil.Taco4]

I associate Mr. Blue Sky with Paul Blart: Mall Cop lol

[@Emalade-jz1vz]

Agreed

[@carolyngrant745]

True. Kind of surprised they picked Mr. Blue Sky. I wouldn't really associate the song solely with Guardians, but 'Hooked on a Feeling' I could totally see being primarily associated with the first film.

[@midnightcarnivalmember]

Footloose. You cannot help but think of the opening sequence and the Final Dance without this song.

[@krissyturner88]

OMG. I used to love this song. THEN I moved to a treet named "Footloose"! EVERYONE sings it too me so now......YIKES!! oxo

[@omarvillasenor1861]

Also never. I don’t know how it didn’t make the list

[@gabrielasaldivia7923]

Patrick Swayze appearing twice in this list proves what an ICON he is!!!

[@ScottieContact]

He’s dead.

[@carolinelowe6304]

Yeah 😂 right

[@cindysmith2858]

He most certainly was 🩵

[@tsgeisel]

Likewise Mike Myers.

[@danielakorneck8385]

Don't You Forget About Me - omg I saw this film 10 times in the cinema back then, and I can still watch it today with the same feeling as when I was 15 years old. It will always be one of my favourite films, with a brilliant film song. 😍🥰

[@mavfin8720]

This was one of the biggest movies for all the 80s teens.

[@iowaguy1984]

I say a Little Prayer from My Best Friend's Wedding is really iconic!

[@jennc.3535]

I couldn’t believe it wasn’t top 10!

[@PapiGeno06]

That song is synonymous with that movie/scene!

[@kimiko611]

This was the first song I thought of. Also the Hall and Oats song from "500 Days of Summer".

[@trinaq]

"Tiny Dancer" from "Almost Famous" instantly springs to mind. After so much previous drama, with many characters at odds with each other, it's nice to see them all sing along together, momentarily united.

[@mixersmix]

Twist and Shout in Ferris Bueller for me

[@staceylichtensteiger7132]

Agreed

[@What_Makes_Climate_Tick]

Too many other associations with that song for me. The one that I associate with that movie is Danke Schön, which also comes up in the parade scene as well as snippets at two other points in the movie.

[@Kpopk1ng]

Agreed.

[@Mobil3targ3t]

@@What_Makes_Climate_Tick Came here to say the same thing.

[@Merylstreep1949]

And Love Missle F-11 too

[@360minerstone4]

I can't hear "Twist and Shout" without picturing Matthew Broderick on a float.

[@rdawn27]

Off the top of my head, Shout (Animal House), Take My Breath Away & Danger Zone (Top Gun), Ghostbusters (Ghostbusters), Love Lift us Up Where We Belong (An Officer and a Gentleman), The Circle of Life (Lion King).

[@MrEiniweini]

Aside from Seegars Love lift Us Up and Shout. The others were written for the movies. To be fair, so was the entry from Dirty Dancing.

[@trinaq]

80's movies had the best soundtracks. Simple Minds wasn't sure if "Don't You Forget About Me", would be a hit, since it was so different from their previous work, but it ended up being one of their most beloved songs.

[@DarianDuncn]

In 2018 semi-biopic Bohemian Rhapsody, Mike Myers plays a record executive refusing to release Bohemian Rhapsody as their featured single because he thinks “kids want a song they can crank the volume in their car radios and bang their heads to, and it’s not Bohemian Rhapsody” self deprecating himself and his love for the song.

[@lindabristow6952]

You're definitely missing Dude Looks Like a Lady by Aerosmith from Mrs Doubtfire and Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins from Top Gun.

[@eugeniapatroncosta920]

Danger Zone is awesome.

[@dannyaraya8017]

Playing With The Boys >

[@Tyta1978]

I thought Celine and Titanic would be there.. and Life is a highway and Cars...

[@Coldo3895]

The song is mostly in the end credits. It's not really associated with a scene in the movie itself.

[@Coldo3895]

And well... this could also be said of Don't you forget about me ;)

[@ch1ckmom217]

You still associate them with those movies somehow.

[@dwisworo332]

Celine's Titanic and Whitney's Bodyguard

[@TheCommenterDragon]

The Day-O scene and Michael J Fox performing Johnny B. Good will always live rent free in my head!!!

[@mistyrae9496]

All I think when I hear eye of the tiger is Dean in Supernatural

[@dangerheart98]

Me too!!!!!

[@MercedesVazquez-x9s]

Always

[@Harrietmjones]

I do now, ever since I saw that moment! 😄

[@carterscustom.1309]

Same here

[@lisalong7183]

Me too

[@annamo9354]

To me it will always be 1998s "City of Angels" and "Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls... then, of course "Titanic" and "My heart will go on" oh, and Whitney Houston's "I will always love you" from "Bodyguard".

[@rdawn27]

Oh yeah! As soon as you named them, I immediately went there! Yes, yes, yes!

[@jonathanjoestar6365]

When I hear Iris, I think of Deadpool and Wolverine after the big sacrifice scene

[@jaimereupert4247]

I'm surprised that the Ferris Bueler's Day Off and Twist and Shout weren't on here. 😢

[@Moraenil]

It was an honorable mention at the end. Should've been in the primary list though.

[@PhantomFilmAustralia]

Oh Yeah * chicka-chicka

[@powerzwerg5566]

"Say a little Prayer for Me" -My Best Friends' Wedding I got to sing it at three different Wedding after and it just gives the shmoozy idea of a perfectly romantic (nevermind fake) meet cute ❤

[@iustinadumitru1933]

What a feeling from Flashdance And Great balls off fire from Top Gun Maverik

[@PapiGeno06]

Pretty good list! I'd add You Got A Friend In Me with the movie Toy Story.

[@waiyinchung4242]

You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling. Top Gun!

[@mspfinney]

Excellent choice! ❤

[@keirarees3179]

“Oh my god I love that song”, I associate Top Gun with both that and Danger Zone.

[@rodneylopez5073]

On my list, I'd add "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" ending of Real Genius, and "Love Will Keep Us Together" from the intro of Get Over It. Those scenes will never leave my head.

[@praisethelerd]

Who Wants To Live Forever by Queen for the original Highlander movie.

[@stuartredmann7515]

Whitney Houston: I will always love you. Should have been top 5. The Doors: The end. Richard Strauss: Also sprach Zarathustra. You'll know the movies as soons as you hear the songs.

[@lindabristow6952]

Not having The Power of Love by Huey Lewis & the News from Back to the Future at minimum no.2 is sacrilegious! At least Johnny B. Goode should be way higher on the list.

[@ZeldaSam1]

I prefer "We're not here for a long time, We're here for a good time" by Huey Lewis.

[@olleselin]

Yep, nobody can think of Johnny B Good without assosciate it with Back to the Future

[@jaredkilbourne2757]

While Shrek catapulted “All Star” into the stratosphere, it was “Mystery Men” that helped get it there.

[@SevHighwind86]

Thank you!!! I was just saying that and was so shocked they didn't even mention it.

[@dannyaraya8017]

one of the many reasons i hate shrek and shrek fans

[@TheGreness]

You don't head bang because Wayne's World did it first, Wayne's World did it because that's what everyone did to that song. And everyone knew that.

[@jensuttorp5266]

No Twist & Shout from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off?

[@ZeldaSam1]

It was at the tail end of the video.

[@Shoegoddess260]

@@ZeldaSam1 but it wasn't on the list or an honorable mention. No Danke Schoën either

[@tclayton2k]

Yello's "Oh Yeah!" ALWAYS gets me saying "Bueller? - Bueller?"

[@bradyakers]

Ferris Beuhler with Twist and Shout or Animal House with Shout should have been top 5 on the list.

[@sasacro]

I think they had to do 2 lists. One for songs made for the movies (like Eye of the tiger and Don’t you forget about me) and the other for already existing songs we now associate with movies

[@RasheedaParker-qn9ec]

Cry little sister-The lost boys & The power of love-Back to the future

[@TheFrugalAudiophile]

I cannot hear Benny and the Jets without thinking of Katherine Heigl’s rendition in 27 dresses. “bububu Bennie and the Jets!“

[@keirarees3179]

I forgot about that one!

[@Aim4God]

Yup, that totally applies to me! 😂

[@DarkStarM]

Holding out for a hero (Shrek 2) scene is ICONIC

[@rebel1749]

Thank you for the trip down memory lane. And yes all these songs will forever be connected to their movies!

[@beckystratton8248]

I got you babe. Can't listen to it without seeing that clock go from 5:59 to 6:00.

[@weider2004]

The majority of the songs in Forest Gump always bring me back to the particular scene in that movie. One of the greatest, in my opinion.

[@khairilhafizi]

0:47 this should be No 1

[@geminie101]

Ferris Bueller that should’ve been number one

[@jasonp1162]

CCR’s “Bad Moon Rising”- An American Werewolf in London.

[@matthewryan9323]

CCR's "Fortunate Son" - Forrest Gump.

[@What_Makes_Climate_Tick]

Eye of the Tiger, Time of My Life, and Don't You Forget seem like they belong in a different category, being written specifically for the movie. Pretty Woman, where the movie is named for the song, also seems like a different category. For me, in Almost Famous, my song-scene connection is the Kate Hudson character getting her stomach pumped to the tune of Stevie Wonder's My Cherie Amour.

[@matthewryan9323]

I agree - anything specifically written for the movie should be a different category. Not that they aren't still memorable with those scenes, but - it'd be like putting "The Imperial March" + The Empire Strikes Back on the list.

[@DennisHealey]

I agree. It should be too separate lists.

[@ElvisRose_]

I'm glad you put Ferris Bueller singing The Beatles version of Twist and Shout at the end because when I was recently at a party and this song played... everybody instantly brought up THAT scene!

[@celticpoet21]

Awesome list! Regarding "Eye of the tiger" I also can't separate it from the incredible group Paso Doble on Dancing with the stars. Fun fact, Mike Myers sent Queen a tape with the Bohemian Rhapsody scene, which Freddie got to see before he died and absolutely loved it! Not only did he get a great laugh out of it, but also probably a kernel of hope that Queen's legacy and his status as a legend was secure.

[@melaniem2744]

Since the early 2000s, I've associated the Pointer Sisters' Jump (for My Love) with Hugh Grant's dance around the Prime Minister's mansion in Love Actually.

[@melaniehall279]

Time after Time will always make me thing of Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion.

[@SevHighwind86]

Danger Zone and Top Gun. Those two are magic together.

I prefer Gary Jules' moody cover of "Mad World", as used in "Donnie Darko." While the Tears for Fears version is an undeniable classic, the cover fits the more sombre lyrics.

[@sblacksmith7600]

Goodbye Horses - Silence of the Lambs & Clerks 2

[@johnpoffenbarger5103]

I'm probably the only person on Earth that thinks of the movie Conspiracy Theory over 10 Things I Hate About You when I hear "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You". Good list overall. Tiny Dancer from Almost Famous & Bohemian Rhapsody from Wayne's World were the 2 that instantly jumped to my mind when I saw the video title.

[@heatherwebb7510]

I am almost certainly of a different generation, and for me "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" brings back memories of "The Deerhunter" above all.

[@davidbowen2093]

The one that is forever linked to its movie is We Belong by Pat Benatar in that climatic scene in Talladega Nights where Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen are running for the finish line!

How many other songs can claim that it did this; 📌 In the UK, reached #1 TWICE. Once in 1975 (9 weeks) & in 1991 (5 weeks) 📌 BILLBOARD HOT 100, Appeared on here 3 times 1976, 1992 & 2018 📌 BILLBOARD TOP 40 (most impressive) appeared on this chart in 3 different decades 1975 - original release date 1992 - Wayne’s World 2018 - The movie’s release ❤️ MASTERPIECE ❤️

Life is a Highway by Rascal Flatts in Cars comes to mind immediately. Also, Bohemian Rhapsody is the best song from the greatest British band of all time (at least second greatest). It didn't need Wayne's World, as it was already a successful hit.

I will always associate Johnny B. Goode and Eye of the Tiger with Back to the Future and the Rocky francise. 😊 But there are also some other Songs, that aren't on this List, where I always think of the Film when they are played in. Bright Eyes - Art Garfunkel for the Film "Watership down" (sorry for the upcoming childhood trauma) Last Unicorm - America for the Film "The Last Unicorn" 634-5789 - Wilson Pickett in the Film "Blues Brothers 2000" "(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me" Higher And Higher" - Jackie Wilson in the Film "Ghostbusters 2" (everytime I hear the first notes from this song, I see the Statue Of Liberty walking down the streets of New York to the Museum 😂) "Wilhelm Tell Ouverture" - Rosini in the "Lone Ranger" TV Series "I Got You Babe" - Sonny and Cher in the Film "Look Who's Talking"

[@veteranJMacfan]

Where is my mind? along with Sweet Dreams (are made of this), White Rabbit, Army of Me and Tomorrow never knows... SuckerPunch. I mean, the story might not make a lot of sense but killer soundtrack. But I can't argue with #1- literally from my favorite movie of all time :D. Also goes to show how iconic the 80's were for bringing great songs into the social conscience where it will endure forever

[@brorjordas1979]

Oh man.. Top Gun has several. The soundtrack is a must-have.
