** ''Film/XMenFirstClass'': Although Music/EdithPiaf's "La Vie en Rose" serves as Shaw's {{Leitmotif}}, the title (which can be roughly translated as "Life Through Rose-Tinted Glasses") is actually an apt description of how the optimistic Xavier perceives the world.
** ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'': Music/JimCroce's "Time in a Bottle" is featured in the Pentagon kitchen scene. When you read [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uR96vc2Y3I the lyrics]] (which is about a man who wishes he could save time and spend it with his beloved), it basically reflects the elderly Erik's profound regret when he tells Charles (whom he loves as a brother), "All those years wasted fighting each other, Charles. To have a precious few of them back..."
** ''Film/XMenApocalypse'': Quicksilver listens to the Music/{{Eurythmics}}' "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" while in BulletTime. The song itself spells out the plot in more ways than one. "Traveled the world and the seven seas, everybody is looking for something" refers to En Sabah Nur teleporting around the globe to recruit followers and offering them something they desire. "Some of them want to use you / Some of them want to abuse you" summarizes [[spoiler:the entire interaction between Apocalypse and Xavier]].

* In ''Film/TheFrenchConnection'', Popeye goes into a nightclub where a girl group is singing a song called "Everybody Gets to Go to the Moon", which is actually original to the ''French Connection'' soundtrack. Here are some of the lyrics in the chorus:
--> Everybody's going to the moon \\
Everybody's going, it'll be quite soon \\
It's customary in songs like this \\
To use a word like spoon... \\
You know everybody's going to the moon
** The next time the chorus comes around the song uses "June" instead of "spoon".

* "Paint By Numbers" by Self, in which the lead sings about having to depersonalize his music so it will sell better:
-->Alone I compose a bittersweet ditty\\
About an ex-girlfriend\\
But why bother with painful memories?\\
Why tear out my heart for all the world to see?\\
Why not paint by number\\
Catchy melody\\
Burn it up the charts with sweet simplicity\\
Then do it again
