Have you ever watched a movie and thought the music didn't fit the film/scene? Like a spy sneaking around a building in a serious film, but the music playing is the "sneak" music they like to play in comedies. Another example would be an exciting movie with music that's dignified and almost boring.

It was odd yet it was strangely right. As only David Lynch would do in a film. Mulholland Drive. A fairly innocuous scene of a movie director arriving at his house and realizing his wife is having a dalliance with the pool man.
Using the song by Sonny Boy Williams. Bring it on Home.
Guess the pool man did.
I can't say that I've ever thought of this issue. I'll have to start paying more attention to what's going on. The music usually fades into the background for me.
I always figured a director or producer put the mis-matched music in on purpose. Juxtaposition can be an effective tool to keep an audience captivated.
