Elliott Smith - Needle in the Hay during the suicide scene in Royal Tenenbaums is absolutely amazing.

Wes Anderson has a ton of great songs in his movies.

I've always felt there should be a "best use of music in a film" for movies such as the Anderson flicks and Almost Famous, as the current scheme requires original music.

The music in Rushmore is unbelievable.

Anytime the Rocky theme was played in any of the Rocky movies. Some might say it's cheesy, but think about it - what other song from a movie symbolizes something whenever you hear it like that song does for underdogs/comebacks.

(Eye of the Tiger , now that's cheesy.)

The sing along on the bus to Elton John's Tiny Dancer in Almost Famous is a great scene.

I've always been a big fan of The Pixies "Where is my Mind" blaring as the buildings collapse at the end of Fight Club.

1) Jesus rolling a strile and subsequently doing his dance while the Gypsy Kings version of Hotel California plays - The Big Lebowski

2) The end of the Big Lebowski with Townes Van Zant's version of Dead Flowers

3) Office Space - Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta - Ghetto Boys

4) If were going Goodgfellas I have to go with the scene where Henry is out riding around with the Helicopter chasing him and Mannish Boy by Muddy Waters is playing.

5) High Fidelity - John Cusack is sitting in the rain thinking about his ex-GF...Most Of Time by Dylan.

There are a ton of good ones. The first one that jumped into my mind was Coldplay "The Scientist" near the end of The garden State. A perfect moment for that song.

Rammstein--Lost Highway, when Bill Pullman is staggering down the hall of the hotel. This is a scary place.

Good one, the first time I saw LH I had to play that scene over a couple times, It was strangely compelling.

OOH. I just thought of a great one.

"We'll Meet Again" at the end of Dr. Strangelove.

Will

How did I not think of this? Good one.

I also want to mention the end of Heat again: Pacino is holding Deniro's hand as Deniro <font color="white"> dies.</font> The music is perfect.

Also the opening credits of 25th hour, with the shots of the spotlights at ground zero.
