Spirit in the Sky - most memorable was in Apollo 13. They played it on their little cassette recorder in the capsule. When the batteries began to go down it played very slowly.
Carmina Burana - The 13th Warrior? And I also believe it was the music blaring from the speakers of the helicopters in Apocalypse Now
Sleep Walk - Hearts in Atlantis - Anthony Hopkins
Fly Me to The Moon - The Frank Sinatra ditty used in Space Cowboys when he lands on the moon.
In the Mood - It's that 1940's Glenn MIller/Andrew Sisters upbeat ditty that plays in almost any movie from tha era. Usually shows the crowd dancing the charleston
Adagio for Strings - Hmmmm. The most memorable use was probably from Platoon.
Bad to the Bone - Used quite often when depicting a bad guy in the movie. He walks out in slow motion while Bad to the Bone blares. T2
Here are a couple of others that are way overused -
Centerfield - John Fogerty
Paint it Black - Rolling Stones used for any Viet Nam Era movie
Magic Carpet Ride - Steppenwolf
Takin Care of Business - BTO
Time of Your Life - Greenday
Any more?
