Songs you can't listen to without immediately thinking about a movie scene.

O Brother Where Art Thou? and You Are My Sunshine (though all of the songs from that film could count, I'd never heard any of them outside of the film).

John Waters seared some rather disturbing (and disgustingly funny) images in my mind with his use of "Surfin' Bird" by The Trashmen and "(How Much is) That Doggie in the Window" by Patti Page.

Anyone who's seen Pink Flamingos should know exactly what I'm talking about.

These two go hand in hand now.
