I can't watch the video at work to see if it's really Jessie's Girl but the song from that movie is Sister Christian by Night Ranger that is playing during the gunfight scene.
Both are played.

Sister Christian (which also is forever changed for me) is when they first arrive and start their drug deal. Then, the tape flips over and Jessie's Girl starts.

I could have (should have) said both songs, but Jessie's Girls intro definitely has a more sinister tone to me now after this movie.
Technically its 99 Luftballons.... which should be on this list too.

One of my favorite movie scenes ever. From beginning to end, it's brilliantly acted and filmed...and the music plays a key role.
When Alfred Molina's character reacts to the song ending because the tape runs out, so awesome.

Everyone remembers when you were trying to make the perfect mix tape and the last song gets cut off, it sucked!

He's talking about the wedding crash montage which ends up with several girls falling back on a bed, the last few of which are topless.

Another good Dan Band moment.

Completing the trio of triumph for The Dan Band, their appearance in the Hangover. I think I stood and applauded when I saw Dan on screen.

I'm going to cross-over to TV some:

El Paso - Breaking Bad
A Little Help From My Friends - Wonder Years
In the Air Tonight - The Hangover
Duettino- Sull'aria from Marriage of Figaro - Shawshank
The Promise and Forever Young - Napoleon Dynamite
Black Betty - Eastbound and Down
Turn, Turn, Turn - Forrest Gump

Total Eclipse from Old School has to be tops for me, I cannot sing it the real way anymore.
When I hear Black Betty I think of Blow.

Also another submission would be Blinded by the Light from Blow.

Probably didn't reinvent it but "Every Breath You Take" by The Police in The Replacements.

Everytime I hear that song, I hear John Madden and Pat Summerall talking.

"What do you do here John"
"You go for it Pat. You have to"
"But Falco's been shut down by this defense all afternoon "
"Yeah but I'll tell you this. All it takes is one big play to get them back in the ballgame."
"And here goes Falco..."
"Falco scores! Falco scores!"

That movie is a guilty pleasure of mine

Yea, it was the theme song for the White Sox that year, but I seem to remember that song being played frequently after the Red Sox came back down 0-3 against the Yankees the year before. I could be wrong though, it was 15 years ago.

I don't think it reinvented it, but I think it was the most perfect use of a song along with visuals ever, was The Immigrant Song in Thor: Ragnarok.... Just gave me chills to hear that riff and Robert Plant's Ahhhhhahhhhahhahhhhaaaa!
