I’ve seen this on several blogs and it always looked fun.
The Soundtrack to My Life
So, here’s how it works:
1. Open your music library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle/Random
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that’s playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
YOU CAN’T CHEAT OR SKIP SONGS!
I used my iPod on Shuffle Songs.
Opening Credits:
Todd Snider – Trouble (I kinda like that for an opening credit song, except I’m not a guy. Ooooh – maybe it’s ABOUT me… huh, I don’t know if that’s good or bad
Waking Up:
Sweet – The Ballroom Blitz (LOL – that was totally me this morning: watch out world)
First Day At School:
John Mayer – Love Songs For No One (… how did that even get into my library? Huh, pretty good description of things anyway – spooky)
Falling In Love:
Dixie Chicks – Everybody Knows (uh… maybe… I’m pretty transparent, you can read my face? It’s pretty, but I dunno…)
Breaking Up:
INXS – Need You Tonight (wow. Um. Possibly post breakup? Dude)
Prom:
Prince – Ballad of Dorothy Parker (I plead the fifth here)
Life’s OK:
The Police – King Of Pain (I like it in a really black, sick, twisted, sadistic kind of way)
Breakdown:
Green Day – She’s A Rebel (yeah baby – “She brings this liberation,That I just can’t defy”)
Driving:
Elmore James – Madison Blues (again, where did that one come from – but fun driving music)
Flashback:
Garth Brooks – Rodeo (this is where the wheels kind of come off…. what, I’m the horse?)
Getting Back Together:
Van Halen – Spanked (I uh… um… I like cheese. WTF? I guess it’s good that didn’t come up for either the flashback or wedding at least….)
Wedding:
White Zombie – Welcome to Planet Motherf******/Psychoholic Slag (at least there’s white in there, right? does that count? Gah – the real one wasn’t that bad)
Sex Scene:
Leann Rimes – I Need You (After the last one, I was really afraid of this one. But not bad. A little sappy, but I’m glad it wasn’t the Spanked one. Come to think of it – that would have been pretty damn funny)
Birth of Child:
Henry Lee Summer – I Wish I Had A Girl (LOL – title fits if nothing else)
Final Battle:
David Bowie – Chilly Down (Heh – what a perfect final battle soundtrack for me)
Death Scene:
Green Day – St. Jimmy (Rebel again, well now that’s just silly. Unless…. I’m going to be sainted!! Heh, not bloody likely!)
Funeral Song:
Brenda Russell – The Tracks Of My Tears (who’s directing this thing? That’s just way too happy for my funeral. We either need heartache or a wild-ass wake. I fully expect you people to drink a shot of tequila, and that’s the good stuff, on my grave and I get the rest of the bottle. Is that so much to ask?)
Dance Sequence:
Tears For Fears – Fish Out of Water (how do you dance to that?)
End Credits:
Toad The Wet Sprocket – Stupid (can I get a do-over? I love the Sprocket, but come on!)
Well that didn’t end well, did it? Still, pretty fun in spots. Give it a try, see what you get!
