I have two:
1)Get It Onby T-Rex makes me think about waiting on the Westbound platform @ Marble Arch for a West Ruislip service. During the song trains for White City and Ealing Broadway arrive, but at the end my desired train arrives and I board.
2)Sir Elton John's Crocodile Rock makes me think about Set #41 leaving Uxbridge bound for Baker St.

Going Underground - the Jam version
London Underground Song - A pretty abusive anti strike version to the same tune by the Amateur Transplants : very therapeutic after a stressful journey home

Actually on second thoughts, look at 1:23 to 2:55 on this badboy, featuring my favourite 59 stock and an unrefurbed 67........ One thing I like is at 1:40, the lift operator in the background! Man I was born at the wrong time  |

Jerry Rafferty's Baker Street brings back memories of the Underground and the buskers who played it down in the station corridors.

Daniel Bedingfield - Gotta Get Thru This reminds me of the DLR simply because the video is filmed in West India Quay, Limehouse and Poplar including inside the Poplar Station Footbridge itself. They also use Canary Wharf Station in it where he runs up the stairs at West India Quay Station to find himself on the platform at Canary Wharf Station where he boards a DLR Train, weird  . |

Sorry for adding another entry here but I was looking up an obscure track on YouTube earlier today and, although this isn't it, look what I found! A bit tame admittedly and nowhere near the likes of the magnificent "Straighten Out", "Curfew" or "Down In The Sewer" IMHO - but a nice bit of film about the IOW 38TS thrown in to save the day!  |

Waterloo Sunset; The Kinks ? So, on arrival at Waterloo, listening to that classic Kinks track on your iPod, you head down to the Waterloo & City line, and Shalamar's 1978 hit then advises you to 'Take That To The Bank' ;D |

Anyone remember Alex Parks - Cry? Yeah. It was filmed in the Jubilee Line Charing Cross platforms which are now abandoned. |

I just found another video with plenty of SSL shots of (unrefurbished) D (external) and C (internal) stocks, plus a FEEDER roundel! This has been one of my favourite songs by this band for a long time, but I don't think I've ever seen the video.
p.s. I thought there was already a thread for this, but search doesn't find anything. If there is, please merge it!

52 stations on the Northern Line
none of them is yours, one of them is mine
(I remember asking aaaages ago what the 52 stations were, because even when this song was released, in 1982, there weren't 52 stations.)

This City Never Sleeps by the Eurythmics.
Very sensual.
The 1938 tube stock pulls out to leave a deserted platform with just myself and Kim Basinger on it after she had stepped off the train with this music playing in the background
And I woke up.
