There is one rule for those thread, the song that reminds you of the movie cannot also be in the movie itself, because then it's just like, duh, of course that song reminds you of it, it's in the opening credits or something.

I'll start with Breaking Benjamin's The Great Divide feeling like the perfect song for the movie Interstellar.



Carry me all through the night
I am the last light fading
Leave all the lost souls behind
Show me the silence breaking
And when you're lost and out of time
I will be right here waiting
And when your dreams return to life
I'll be forever fading
And we'll fall behind
So I'll wait for you
As I keep your faith alive
And I'll pray for you
As we cross the great divide
Bury the wounds deep inside
Rupture the fault line breaking
Dream of the world left behind
Show us we're worth forsaking
And when the cold begins to rise
Darkness is overtaking
And when the fear is satisfied
I'll be forever changing
As we all realize
So I'll wait for you
As I keep your faith alive
And I'll pray for you
As we cross the great divide
And I'll break for you
As I open up the sky
And I'll stay for you
As we cross the great divide
Follow the sun light down
Cry clear and loud
Heaven won't help us now
But it's better this way
Warm light wash me away
So I'll wait for you
As I keep your faith alive
And I'll pray for you
As we cross the great divide
And I'll break for you
As I open up the sky
And I'll stay for you
As we cross the great divide


The lyrics and tone of the song are just am absolute perfect fit for the movie. "As I open up the sky" fits perfectly for the goal of the plot while "and I'll wait for you" hits just right for the ending of the film.

Long Tall Sally always reminds me of Predator. Even when it's used in other movies like The House with the Clock in its Walls.

A good song will sometimes remind me of a movie that I wish existed. Aerosmith's Dream On would make a good One Piece trailer, for instance.

Not a movie, but this song from Riot Zone would not be out of place in Yu Yu Hakusho. The factory stage in DD II PCE is pretty much any 80s cop or street gang action movie fight/chase scene. Dino Crisis 2 save room is Jurassic Park.

Sabaton's cover of "Twilight of the Thunder God" reminds me of the Thor movies and the fact that neither it nor AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" have ever been in any of them is a travesty.
