Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Yello - Oh Yeah!

I'm sure it's been used in other movies but anytime I hear it I immediately think of Ferris.

That Bryan Adams song for Prince of Thieves. Or maybe the song was made for the movie, I don't recall. But they go together.

That is a GREAT song! I watched the hell out of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves starring the legendary Kevin Costner. Bryan Adams music video was mostly a cut-up of clips from the movie and it followed the movie on my vhs copy. Always watched it.

Thank you for not mentioning songs composed SPECIFICALLY for a particular movie. Ride of the Valkyries is such a good answer. There is no way anyone will ever hear that piece and not immediately see Huey's stacked 10 deep flying through the air ready to destroy. It's such a wicked piece of music set perfectly to a scene.

"We use Wagner! Scares the hell out of the slopes! My boys love it."

I would also say William Tell Overture is pretty much forever locked up by the Lone Ranger also...but hell I didn't even know how many people even know or think of that piece as anything OTHER than the Lone Ranger theme anyway.
