Has anyone any songs that they used to really dislike, but when they heard it in a different context; say used as a film soundtrack or for a tv ad- they have changed their mind about it & come to like it?

For instance - I never used to like Elton John's Crocodile Rock. Until it was used in a wedding scene in the Film 'Four Weddings & a Funeral'. Ever since then I've really liked the song. Weird? Strange? Any other examples?

I can't say the oldie song 'Imposible Dream' did impossibly wonderful things for me - I didn;t hate it, but do remember my mum singing it, so it's 60's or 70's stuff. However, it really stirs me in the new Honda advert & I sing alonga Max at the top of my voice every time it comes on.
