Case in point: if I hear "Dreamweaver" or "Foxy", I think of Wayne's World.
"I Will Survive"? The Replacements, or Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.
"I Need A Hero" gets me Footloose and Shrek 2.
Culture Club? Without a Paddle.
What about you? What songs give you a flashback sequence when you hear it?
"Try a Little Tenderness" - The Commitments
"Man of Constant Sorrow" - O Brother, Where Art Thou?
And more recently,
"Rocky Road To Dublin" - Sinners
