Fandom Associated Songs

I have this weird thing, where I tend to associate most things with sounds and/or music. This is especially prevalant with fandom. The weird thing, half the time the music I associate with something is completely unrelated to the thing itself. Like, normally you'd associate a drama with the music in it's OST. I'm talking about associating a song that has absolutely not ties to the drama itself.
My Examples;
Silverchair's "If You Keep Losing Sleep" with "Tin Man".
I think I must have been listening to Young Modern a LOT while reading Tin Man fic.
Goo Goo Doll's "Long Way Down" with "Animorphs".
This is a weird one. Animorphs was one of my first big fandoms, and I loved Goo Goo Dolls back in the day. Somehow the paths got crossed, and bam.
Sugarcult's "Pretty Girl" with "Alias"
This one is due to a fanfic... And then I became slightly obsessed with the song, and yeaaah.
Three Days Grace's "I Hate Everything About You" with "Harry Potter"
This is specifically Draco/Hermione. I blame a fanvid for this one. It was a stupid fanvid. But to this day, this song reminds me of the ship.
This has nothing to do with anything (the song reminds me of something, but I don't know what (other than Star Wars - all disco reminds me of Star Wars... long story). But I was watching it, and was like "...is that Josh Duhamel?!". Yes, yes it is.
I'm sure there's a buttload more, but that's all I can remember at the current time.
My Question, do you have any random music that reminds you of a fandom?

I think my strongest association is with the Silverchair song. Probably because I listen to that one the most. But like, every time I hear it I yearn to read Tin Man fanfic.
