The studio version of Hocus Pocus by Focus.
I have listened to Hocus Pocus several times and wondered why no one has ever made an action sequence around it. I figured it was too weird or would compete with the action or wouldn't play out like I thought it would. It turns out that someone had that same thought: Edgar Wright! The big climax in Baby Driver uses Hocus Pocus - in all of its yodeling, accordion playing, and fluted glory. And it's awesome! I made an involuntary squeal of glee in the theater. I played this for my morning commute and was so fired up I skipped the escalator and ran up the steps.
