This Song Can No Longer Exist Separately From the Movie

I saw this list as a poll on the IMDb website and I thought it was such a great idea that I had to add it to List Challenges. I also wanted the opportunity to add a few of my own to the list (From 36 onward). I must admit that I have not seen all of the films on the original list (1-35). I also associate more than one iconic song with some of these movies and do not necessarily agree with with the original selection. This is a list of songs that are so synonymous with the movies they were used in that you will inevitably think of the movie when you hear the song.
