Summer is beckoning and what's a scorching, humid three-month stretch without a solid blockbuster movie? Probably about the same as said movie without a defining song.

To that end, AOL recently name-checked Elliott Smith's 'Miss Misery,' the Shins' 'New Slang' and the Pixies' 'Where Is My Mind' -- from the flicks 'Good Will Hunting' 'Garden State' and 'Fight Club,' respectively -- on their Top 77 Most Unforgettable Movie Songs.

Other notable, well, notables: Audrey Hepburn's 'Moon River' from 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'; the Jesus and Mary Chain's 'Just Like Honey' from 'Lost in Translation'; and Chuck Berry's 'Johnny B. Goode' from 'Back to the Future.'

Read the rest of the list to see which tunes made the cut, including a helluva no-brainer at No. 1.
