When a filmmaker pairs a scene with the perfect song, the results can become iconic. But when and how did movies start using popular music this way? In this episode, Dallas, Casey and Grace trace the history of “needle drops,” from a forgotten Broadway song that became an unlikely hit, to the rock ‘n’ roll record that transformed movie soundtracks, to the happy accidents behind some of the most famous scenes of the ‘60s, ‘70s, and ‘80s. Along the way, they reveal how movies and popular music became permanently intertwined.Build your home sound system today at <a href="https://sonos.com/">sonos.com</a>.Twenty Thousand Hertz is produced by <a href="https://defactosound.com/">⁠⁠Defacto Sound⁠⁠</a>.Support the show and get ad-free episodes at <a href="https://20k.org/plus">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠20k.org/plus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a>.Subscribe on<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@dallastaylor.mp3?sub_confirmation=1"> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a> to see our video series.Follow Dallas on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dallastaylor.mp3/">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@dallastaylor.mp3">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dallastaylorsound">⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠</a>, and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/dallastaylor/">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a>.If you know what this week's mystery sound is, tell us at <a href="http://mystery.20k.org/">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠mystery.20k.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a>.
