They're very dated now, but lots of movies/shows would have the "badass" scene with Born To Be Wild playing or (after Terminator 2), Bad To The Bone. I cringed back then and still do now.

The most cliche overall might be (insert classical song here) for some fancy smancy dinner party or get together. Particularly Mozart's Serenade in G Major.

Came in just to say this, social for when it's time for all the characters to say good bye to each other lol.

Super ironic because I'd wager to bet a huge number of people don't know it's by Green Day, and of those people, a chunk of them don't know Green Day is supposed to be a punk band lol.

And yet you hear it at every American sporting event. If that's not a cliched use of it, I don't know what is.

Kung Fu Fighting shows up pretty much in every comedy with a fight scene. It's been in Beverly Hills Ninja, Kung Fu Panda 3, Rush Hour 3, Bowfinger, and an episode of Scrubs.

This

Also Mr. Blue Sky when played over a montage of previously grumpy characters learning to bond with people and be happy (bonus points if they're bonding with adorable kids).

Semi-Charmed Life had a strong run of inexplicably showing up in teen movies while the kids were out shopping or something, too.
