How a movie can revaluate a song of the past.
#1
When I watched Tarantino's 'INGLORIOUS BASTERDS' I listened to, not expecting to hear it, one of David Bowie's songs out of the past:
PUTTING OUT THE FIRE WITH GASOLINE. I hadn't heard it in ages and positively loved it. What an atmospheric, dark song.
Have you guys got any other suggestions of the sort? How a movie or TV production can re-introduce a nearly forgotten song and give it new thrust?

Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody was re-introduced to the world through Wayne's World - the scene in the Gremlin made the song a HUGE hit when it had not been prior to that.

Trainspotting helped Iggy Pop's song Lust For Life.

Terrific song and an outstanding video (see theUploader's comments for it's [the vid's] origins). I think an equally good source are TV series--some of them have top-notch in-the-minute song use. None readily come to mind but when I tip a series, if the music's there, I say so.
