First, out of the way: Any song I know from wrestling.
Walk Like an Egyptian because of Jojo.
(Roundabout too...but you hear that less on the radio...)
One Week because of What We Do In The Shadows. And also because I think of Emma Smith and Postmodern Jukebox's cover of it.
Tubthumping, but as a joke, as Ghosts said that's the song you hear in hell.
Surfer Bird, and unless you haven't been watching television since at least the 2010s, you know why.

"Glory of Love" by Peter Cetera, since it was sung by a character in a webvideo parodying Resident Evil.

Tequila by The Champs is great on its own but I still always get an image in my head of Pee-wee doing the big shoe dance from Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure when I hear it.

The instrumental part of The Chain by Fleetwood Mac was the BBC theme for Formula One Grand Prix in the 80s and 90s. It wasn’t until it featured in an episode of Heroes that I discovered it was an actual song with lyrics!

Yes's "Roundabout" because of my association of the song with the JJBA "To Be Continued" meme.

I'm not a sports fan but somehow ended up at a minor league hockey game as a kid. At some point, for some reason, Ken Shamrock's music started blaring and I thought he was in the building. It was the most exciting part of the whole experience.

It wasn’t until it featured in an episode of Heroes that I discovered it was an actual song with lyrics! As well as this one for me, "Soul Limbo" by Booker T and the MGs, which has been the BBC's music for its cricket coverage for longer than I can remember. And to a lesser extent, "Mambo No. 5" when Channel 4 did it. There was a lovely montage at the beginning of the fifth test of the '05 Ashes with "The Winner Takes It All" by ABBA on it too. |

For me, they played Lisa Lougheed's "Run With Us" at the end of the movie Hobo With A Shotgun, the song is better known as the theme from the animated series "The Raccoons".
I like listening to a few 'music reation' channels on YouTube, and it's kind of funny seeing some of them lose their minds when they hear Bruce Hornsby's "The Way It Is".

A lot of the WCW/NWO Revenge OST songs I just now associate with Wrestling Bios' Reliving the War series because of how they're used in those videos.

Most of the music I discover, mostly mainstream comes from pro wrestling. I remember telling someone I discovered Belmont because it was used as an entrance theme in the first GCW Emo Fight and the guy simply replied "that's a terrible way to know them". I mean, yeah but this is my way to discover music and through my project, I discovered music from different genres and languages. I am not going to mention which songs I've discovered through wrestling because I don't want to go to the point of annoyance but through GTA video game series, I've discovered. - "Never Say Never" by Romeo Void - "Wouldn't It Be Good" by Nik Kershaw - "Self Control" by Laura Branigan - "Moving on Up" by Primal Scream Just to name a few examples. A lot of the WCW/NWO Revenge OST songs I just now associate with Wrestling Bios' Reliving the War series because of how they're used in those videos. (Contradicting a little bit what I said about not mentioning about entrance themes discovered on wrestling but) at a promotion in New Jersey two years ago, two rookies came out competing against each other using "nWo Hollywood" and "nWo Wolfpac" as entrance theme. |
