Everyone has songs that instantly remind them of something: Maybe it’s riding around with friends in high school . . . a memorable night with someone special . . . or maybe something sad, like an ex . . . or your childhood dog’s favorite song.
Someone on social media asked, “What’s a song that immediately makes you think of a MOVIE?” . . . and the responses have been rolling in.
Here are some good ones:
1. “Danger Zone”, Kenny Loggins . . . “Top Gun”
2. “The Power of Love”, Huey Lewis and the News . . . “Back to the Future”
3. “Stuck in the Middle with You”, Stealers Wheel . . . “Reservoir Dogs”
4. “(I’ve Had) the Time of My Life” . . . “Dirty Dancing”
5. “Eye of the Tiger”, Survivor . . . “Rocky 3”
6. “Where Is My Mind?”, Pixies . . . “Fight Club”
7. “All Star”, Smash Mouth . . . “Shrek”
8. “My Heart Will Go On”, Celine Dion . . . “Titanic”
9. “I Like to Move It”, Reel 2 Real . . . the “Madagascar” franchise
10. The “Life Is a Highway” cover by Rascal Flatts . . . “Cars”
11. “Kiss from a Rose”, Seal . . . “Batman Forever”
12. “Bohemian Rhapsody”, Queen . . . “Wayne’s World”. There’s also a clever full-circle moment in the recent movie “Bohemian Rhapsody” where Mike Myers’ character says “Bohemian Rhapsody” is NOT the kind of song that “teenagers can crank up in their car and bang their heads to.”
13. “Sweet Emotion”, Aerosmith . . . “Dazed and Confused”
14. “Tiny Dancer”, Elton John . . . “Almost Famous”
15. And for the old-schoolers: “The Sound of Silence”, Simon & Garfunkel . . . “The Graduate”.
