I have to immediately discount the opinion of anyone that says the use of Fuckin' in the Bushes in Snatch had conviction to it. I love the song and the movie, and it fit, but there is nothing deep or important that makes the song fit the scene better than another song of similar tone and tempo.
I agree that Mann could have easily used another, probably better song (although I admit I don't hate this song either), but I still don't think it has anything to do with popularity. I mean shit, if Mann was trying to do something like that, you would have heard some Linkin Park song in there. Same with the club scene and the use of the Oakenfold song Ready Steady Go. Again, there are hundreds of songs that could go there, but he used one from 2 years ago, from an album that probably hasn't been on ANY charts in the last 18 months.
