When I hear certain songs, I always think of particular movies, television, even commercials. Anybody who has seen Reservoir Dogs would understand that when I hear "Stuck in the Middle with You" by Stealers Wheel, I automatically see Michael Madsen dancing around and torturing the cop. "Twist & Shout" by The Beatles makes me think of Matthew Broderick on the float in Ferris Bueller's Day Off (a movie I know verbatim). In Sgt. Bilko (the movie, not tv), whenever the Colonel was coming, they were warned by "No Particular Place To Go" by Chuck Berry playing over the P.A. Another Chuck Berry, "Johnny B. Goode", I picture Marty McFly singing from Back to the Future. I don't know anyone who can hear "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen and not think of the scene in the car from Wayne's World. "Barracuda" by Heart, I see Lucy Liu looking like a dominatrix in Charlie's Angels. I always see the opening of Zombieland when I hear "For Whom The Bell Tolls" by Metallica. Marilyn Manson's "Sweet Dreams" is House on Haunted Hill. "Psycho Killer" by The Talking Heads is Behind the Mask, Soundgarden's "Jesus Christ Pose" is S.F.W. Most anything by AC/DC makes me think of Iron Man, but "If You Want Blood" is Empire Records. Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" will always be The Replacements. The Rolling Stones have many songs I associate with movies. "Time is on my Side" is Fallen, "Paint it Black" is Stir of Echoes, "Gimme Shelter" is Air America and "Sympathy for The Devil" is Interview with the Vampire (even though that version is Guns and Roses). Any version of "Bad Reputation" plays and I see Hit-Girl from Kick-Ass. Patsy Cline's "I Fall to Pieces" makes me think of Phantoms. Anything by Neil Diamond is Saving Silverman, except "Sweet Caroline", that's Beautiful Girls. Every time I hear "Coconut" by Harry Nilsson, I see the Midnight Margarita scene from Practical Magic. "The Man Comes Around" by Johnny Cash is Dawn of the Dead, "Don't Fear the Reaper" is The Frighteners, "Low Rider" by War is Gone in 60 Seconds, "It's Not Unusual" by Tom Jones is Mars Attacks,  "Stayin' Alive" by The Bee Gees is Virtuosity, Lovin' Spoonful's "Summer in the City" is Die Hard with a Vengeance, "Chain of Fools" by Aretha Franklin is Sneakers, Rosemary Clooney's "Mambo Italiano" is Married to the Mob. Say Anything may have been a movie I'm not fond of, but it had the infamous scene where John Cusack held up the boombox playing "In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel. I still remember commercials that featured certain songs. "Happy Together" by The Turtles was used for Golden Grahams cereal. Besides being in every '80s movie (like Ferris Bueller), "Oh Yeah" by Yello was Twix. The swing tune "Sing, Sing, Sing" was Chips Ahoy. Supernatural is full of classic rock songs, but the two I remember the most are "Carry on Wayward Son" by Kansas which any fan knows is used in the recap montages before season finales and "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor which was used in the episode "Yellow Fever" and the extra scene at the end where Jensen Ackles is lip-synching and air guitaring to it. I saw a video somebody made on YouTube of clips from the Nightmare on Elm Street movies done to Avenged Sevenfold's "Nightmare", which is awesome.
