btw, surely Wuthering Heights is a Kate Bush tune as well?

Yeah, I just like Pat's version better.  TeddyR

I'm guessing Rob Zombie's "House of 1,000 Corpses" song doesn't count?  I mean, it was written specifically for the movie he wrote and directed.  But it is a song named after a movie.  I dunno.

DJ Sappo - 'Dawn Of The Dead'
http://youtube.com/watch?v=YWq9ESv0TUI


also here is a tune not named after a film, but which samples quite a bit of dialogue from 'Jaws', to the point where someone has made a video for it on youtube matching up various scenes from the film with the appropriate bits of the track... it's really good IMO people should check it out:

DJ Excel - 'Just When you Thought It Was Safe'
<a href="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=WYIkM_R3A9I" target="_blank">http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=WYIkM_R3A9I</a>

incase the preview doesnt show up heres the link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=WYIkM_R3A9I

If the previous post was the chicken and the egg, then this post is the egg and the chicken. Actually, I found more movies named/inspired for/by songs, then I found songs named/inspired for/by movies. But . . . as previously stated

Song: Who Woke Snow White Up
Film: Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs

Song: Along Came Jones
Film: Along Came Jones

Song: Western Movies
Film: Not a specific film, but the western genera

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
