Phhh. "Black Betty" in Blow. (Remember, he's struttin thru the airport in his white suit, about to deliver some cocaine.)

I also liked "Blinded by the Light", or whatever it's called by whoever sings that thing... the James Gang or whoever. Everytime I hear this song now I think of Blow.

I think of the scene where Johnny Depp is standing in his driveway puffing away while admiring his fleet of cars while his dad nods his head in approval/disapproval.

It's by the Electric Light Orchestra (ELO).

"Blinded by the light, held up like a loofah by the foreman of the night..."

Sorry, couldn't resist. Vague reference to a mid-90's Comedy Central Show (The Vacant Lot) Skit about a bunch of guys arguing over "Blinded by the Light".

This and Eye of the Tiger, whichw as mentioned earlier, are great answers.

"Sunshine of Your Love" in Goodfellas.

"Everybody Wants Some" in Better Off Dead.

And if he can mention "Ghost", then Celine Dion in "Titanic" warrants a mention.

"Looney Tunes Theme" in Blazing Saddles.

Run through the Jungle - CCR: In the Big Lebowski when The Dude and Walter are going to hand off the money. Awesome movie.

Also, Saturday Night Live/Ace Ventura when "Stayin Alive" is playing in the opening scene...

Also, in "Crash" at the end, when the song "In the Deep" is playing...
