I'm old enough that Cheech & Chong's Up In Smoke immediately and iconically came to mind.

The song is played in its entirety during the opening credits instead of being used for like 15 seconds.

And it is an incorrect answer.

Yep, after it told me that was wrong I just assumed it's been in tens of movies and gave up..

There exist dbs of what songs are in what movies, it should probably accept any of them as alt answers IMO.

BTW, War is still touring. I saw them in concert a few weeks ago. And yes, they played "Low rider", last song, place went nuts. There were rumors that George Lopez owned the rights to the song, as part of his TV show, so the band couldn't perform it anymore.

Yeah same here!
