I'll go with goodfellas as well, but the scene that follows Ray liotta and his lady into the club while "then he kissed me" was played.

Goodfellas is probably the GOAT movie for this category, excluding actual musicals.

Layla, the scene you mentioned, plus the "Opus" - the medley scene on the day he gets busted, where he's paranoid (but not really), coked up, etc. Marty has always had a strong relationship with the Rolling Stones and other musical groups

I mean, he directed The Last Waltz, Shine a Light, so he's intimately a musically oriented filmmaker who doesn't make musicals.

Although it only won a single Oscar, I believe Goodfellas is the film he'll ultimately be remembered for - his masterpiece, if you will.
