List a song that in your mind is strongly identified with a film. In other words, a song that when you hear it on the radio (or wherever) you can't help thinking about a related movie.

I'll start things off:'

Song: The Power of Love by Huey Lewis and the News
Film: Back to the Future

Every time I hear that song I think of Jessica Simpson and what a terrible actress she is.

That's funny! This song always reminds of Shrek because of the Dating Game scene.

You've got to be kidding! It was written for "Highlander" along with "Princes of the Universe" and "Who Wants to Live Forever".
