Default Songs that remind you of movie scene

This a song you hear on the radio and you instantly think of a movie scene in which the song played. Below are my examples.

"Moving in Stereo"-Fast Times at Ridgemount High when Pheobe Cates came out the pool and took off her top
"Radar Rider"-Heavy Metal when the Corvette came out the space ship and landed on earth.

Carl Orf's "Carmina Burana" ( one of my favourite pieces of music ever) always reminds me of the "Excalibur" riding into battle scene :

"Twist and Shout" by the Beatles will always mean "Ferris Bueller's day off " to me...

Ricky Martin's "La Vida Loca" superseded nicely into a new classic by Shrek 2's final scene.

Let's see here are a few:

"Live to tell" from Madonna, makes me think of the movie, "At Close Range". Of course the instrumental part of it without the words were played a few times in it and at the end the whole song version was played.

I agree with the poster who said, "The power of love" that does make me think of the skateboarding scene in "Back to the future"..

The Night Ranger song, "Sister Christian" always reminds me of the movie "Boogie Nights", and I think always will. The part where they are going to rip off a drug dealer.

The song "unchained Melody" from the "Righteous Brothers" always reminds me of the movie "Ghost".

The song, "King of wishful thinking" and "It must have been love" by Roxette always reminds me of the movie "Pretty women".

And of course every girls favorite, the song "Time of my life" always reminds me of another girl-movie "Dirty Dancing".

I think Moving in Stereo is particularly evocative of that scene in part because it was never a single, so it is more notable simply for being in that film.
