What are some of your favorite movies whose titles are also the titles of songs?

Either the movie was named after the song, the song was named after the movie, the movie‘s theme song is the song in question, the movie has nothing to do with the song other than they just share the same title, or any other circumstance. 

CAVEAT: both the movie title and the song title must be exact matches word-for-word, no deviation whatsoever, no extra words, letters, numbers, no missing words, letters, numbers, no partial song titles fit into larger movie titles, no movie titles using only a part of a song title.

    Director Marc Forster's "Stay"  (2005)

    Also, a song by Rihanna  with Mikky Ekko

    The movie came out long before the song. And the song seems to have nothing at all to do with such a scary movie, ha! (I always like the very end of the song, when Rihanna just hits those very last several notes.)

    In order to give you a better chance at seeing my post, I'm posting this EDIT as a separate answer. It's related to my original answer. 

    EDIT: And I had to come back again to this answer and fix more typos. Tonight, I seem to spot them only after posting and then looking at them again minutes later. Irritating to me. :)

    But I had fun answering your question because I like the "Stay" movie a lot and the song.
    I hope to come up with an answer to one of your other questions about a movie theme that I don't think works well for the movie. Great question! 
    Blahblahblah - - I'm rambling. :)
