If you’re a fan of Stranger Things or Saltburn, you know how a great movie or series can reignite your love of certain songs – whether you’re singing Murder on the Dancefloor while you dance around naked or are shouting the lyrics, “And if I only could, I’d make a deal with God,” while you wear your old-school Walkman.

In The Batman, the song is played after the brutal murder of Gotham’s mayor by the Riddler. Melancholic and filled with angst, Cobain’s grungy Seattle sound fit perfectly with the bleak atmosphere in The Batman, and Something in the Way became an unexpected hit. The song first gained traction in 2020 when it was featured in the teaser trailer for the movie, and for the first time ever, it appeared on the Billboard charts.

Lady Marmalade by Labelle Moulin Rouge - scene The disco hit Lady Marmalade debuted in 1975 and became the biggest single of Labelle’s career. The song was inspired by New Orleans and the vivacious ladies who worked the streets of the French Quarter. Most notably, the song’s French chorus, “Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?” literally translates to “Do you want to sleep with me tonight?” Lady Marmalade became a hit and reached No.1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1975.

But it wasn’t until 2023 when Barry Keoghan danced fully nude in the mansion he finally owns in the finale of Saltburn, that the song really became a mega-hit. In the now-iconic finale of the movie, Keoghan strips completely naked and plays Murder on the Dancefloor while he dances around an empty mansion he now owns, which helped turn Saltburn into a viral hit and gave Bextor’s song newfound fame.

Love Is All Around by The Troggs Billy Mack - Christmas is all Around 16:9 - 2003 Original Musik Video The song Love Is All Around debuted in 1967 and became a hit. Though the song wasn’t the band’s most popular single, it received a good amount of airtime across the globe. In 1994, the song found new life after it was covered by the band Wet Wet Wet for the Four Weddings and a Funeral soundtrack. The cover found its biggest success in the U.K., where it topped the charts for 15 weeks.
