That's actually a slow, dark cover song written exclusively for that film. If you listen to the original version by Tears for Fears, it's a much more energetic, happy-sounding song. You wouldn't even know it was dark unless you were paying attention to the lyrics.

Or the minor key.
Yeah I remember the Tears for Fears original, wasn’t a fan when I first heard it. It wasn’t until Michael Andrews/Gary Jules’ version that I became hooked.
Had to do a high school speech presentation set to the song doing nonverbal dances.
The trauma has taken the place of the movie lol
Back in 2000, I think you were practically brainwashed into linking Metallica with Mission: Impossible II.
It's a decent song but I seem to remember that summer its all I heard. 😄
I remember that summer, stuck in the countryside, satellite TV being the only entertainment other than fucking around on my bike. I disappear and Take a look around are similarily linked in my mind.
I was always annoyed a little bit because I was a bigger Limp Bizkit fan and at least their song used the M:I theme music!
Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls to City of Angels, but looks like it was written for the movie so not sure if it counts..

Much more impactful than how it was used in Shrek 2.
Real stakes, life and death. Spoiler warning - clip spoils the climax of the movie...
Omg yes! I didn’t even think of this one until you mentioned it. I was so in love with those movies as a kid.
Freebird will always bring back the Kingsman church scene.
Tuesday's Gone will always remind me of Happy Gilmore.
Not really a song, but Carmina Burana and Boorman's Exalibur (also bits of the Götterdämmerung I guess).
