10 Songs That Got Popular After Being Used In Movies

2. Where Is My Mind - Pixies

The more that you start to internalize the movie Fight Club, it almost gets uncomfortable as the film goes on. As you slowly start to figure out the pieces of what's going on in Ed Norton's head, you almost feel his raw nerves along with him, as we see faint stills of Tyler Durden in his mind. Just a few minutes of something like this can mess with your head, so naturally you'd be asking the same question that the Pixies are by the end.

At this point in the movie, Tyler Durden has been taken care of by the main character shooting himself in the mouth, but that's not about to stop the destruction that's going to happen. As he finds Marla in a skyscraper, both of them decide to join hands right as the city around them turns to rubble, all while the Pixies' disaffected song plays everything out. Then again, that kind of disaffected snideness actually works a lot better than anything else.

With the guitar riff anchoring you down to everything else, Frank Black's voice practically serves as another voice in the narrator's head, as he seems just on the edge of consciousness as he watches those buildings crumble away to nothing. There's a good chance that the Narrator could die, be arrested, or both, but for those brief moments watching those buildings, everything might actually make sense for the first time in his life.
