From the soundtrack to _The Quiet Man_, [Prelude to the Big Fight](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3LNcDnVH_w).

I’ve seen _The Quiet Man_ a small number of times over the years, and ‘Prelude to the Big Fight[’ is a familiar tune from it. The thing is, it seems _too_ familiar; like I’ve heard it in other films. Has it been used in other films? Or is it just so catchy that it stuck in my head?
