‘‘Twas our official dance song at our wedding. That is now a very old movie as am I. Very old. But still dancing.

(On edit:
RSHERMVIKES — great selection! I didn’t see you had chosen this one already, but it deserves its own separate post anyway! Lol )

Maybe I can make it up to @JordyG by starting a music thad that is clear and unmistakable. Here's one such iconic theme song that got some pretty fantastic musical remakes:

I discovered, by accident, while listening to a classical music radio station, that the Star Wars theme, was stolen, in its entirety, from a classical piece. And the Darth Vader theme was from a Polish military march.

My favorite theme is from "Barry Lindon," where they gave credit to the composer. I also really liked the theme for the tv series "Victory at Sea," which was donated for free by Rogers and Bennett.
