Does Destiny ever cause songs to get stuck in your head? (Destiny)

I'm not talking about the game's music, either. For some reason, I associate certain levels with certain songs. Whenever I'm on the Moon, I get "Whalers on the Moon" from Futurama stuck in my head. Maybe it's because "Wizard from the Moon" sounds so similar. Hell, you could make up your own lyrics: "They're Wizards from the Moon; they're harbingers of doom..."

Mars makes me think of the second verse of Rocket Man: "Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids; In fact it's cold as Hell; And there's no one there to raise them if you did"

The Darkness reminds me of "The Sound of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel: "Hello Darkness my old friend..."

Of course, this isn't the first time something from Bungie evoked thoughts of other songs. Back during the Halo 3 beta, Valhalla made me think of Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song" because it referred to Valhalla in one verse. Whenever I jumped through the man cannon I even went "AaaaaAHHHHHaaaaaaaAAA!" I guess it's only appropriate that the song was used in a Destiny commercial.

So, any examples you guys would like to offer?

Whenever someone says vault of glass I get a really specific line from a UK one hit wonder 'four minute warning '

Heart of glass blondie sings in her ear you're a rock queen honey and we all hear you
4 minutes left to go is this the end that message on your stereo
4 minute warning

And I hear Blondie's Heart of Glass because ... well, it's obvious.

I may be an a-hole, but I'm not 100% a dick.

Lord knows Bungie's buddy-buddy with Sony as is.
