Pick a song/scene from Forrest Gump. They all just seem to fit perfectly.
True dat. It's almost like they made the movie after the soundtrack.
What about
Renegade by Styx - Billy Madison

Another good one is Sigur Ros "Untitled #4" (aka "The Nothing Song") at the end of Vanilla Sky. Beautiful.
Also from Vanilla Sky...."Everything in it's right place" by Radiohead.
Both are awesome. That whole soundtrack is great.

I'll second Old Time Rock n Roll from Risky Business and Lost That Lovin Feeling from Top Gun.
One somewhat obscure one, but to me it works really really well, is Mary Fahl's "Going Home" during the opening credits flag montage of Gods and Generals.

I agree with this.
This may not fit the OP's question, but "Gimme Shelter" in The Departed is great. Every time I hear it I think of the movie.

Got another one.
Dela (Johnny Clegg and Savuka) in George of the Jungle.
It fit very well.

I love the intro to Zombiland with For Whom the Bell Tolls

Only read the first and last page of the thread, but I always liked Sister Christian in Boogie Nights.
The scene.

A lot that have been mentioned would make my list however my absolute number 1 is "A Quick One While He's Away" by the Who in Rushmore. I love that entire scene ending with Max getting hauled off to jail at the end.
Also, I love the opening credits of Devils Rejects with the "freeze framing" and Midnight Rider playing. I also like the beginning of the Donnie Darko directors cut with INXS's "Never Tear Us Apart" playing.

Don't forget Jesse's girl and 99 Red Balloons!
The tension in that scene is unbelievable. Those firecrackers were killing me.

I know it's not the best acting in Cage's career, but Sweet Home Alabama in Con Air was good. Especially with the line from Garland Green.
"Define 'irony': a bunch of idiots dancing around on a plane, to a song made famous by a band that died in a plane crash."

"Bitter Sweet Symphony" at the end of Cruel Intentions

Gortoz a'ran(I think) at the end of black hawk down and the score music at the end of man on fire are both great, too.

Deleted. I had missed someone saying Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate.
