Layla by Eric Clapton being played during that post Lufthansa heist montage in "Goodfellas".

perfect use of a song for parody or satire is the beginning trailers in the film "Tropic Thunder" where jack blacks character in the movie has a family farting around the kitchen table like the nutty professor's klump family and 'come on feel the noise" by quiet riot plays for a brief moment.

i think that was funny because when that godawful eddie murphy movie "Norbit" came out the trailer had Peter Gabriel"s song Big Time playing...like the song is referencing norbits fat wife in the movie. but the song has nothing to do with someone being fat its just whored out for a movie to go with whats going on.

the fatties trailer with jack black in tropic thunder seemed to make fun of movies doing that so they played the quiet riot song to go along with the loud farts at the dinner table.

Detroit Rock City had the scene where the Kids were about to kick some Disco Fuckers asses. And it showed them wrapping their respective weapons of choice in their hands as the intro to "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath played. Perfect theme song for those moments when someone's about to kick the shit kicked out of them.

An episode of House featured him having to induce a seizure in a Rocker, so he played some of the Rocker's music at him to do so.
