Soundtrack To Your Life

[AtomicHyperbole]

OK, a friend forwarded this to me on Myspace, but it's quite intriguing...

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question / scene, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend your cool...

What happened to mental breakdown?

edit - Oops, it's been edited in in the time I pressed "quote". THUS PROVING YOU'RE NOT FOLLOWING THE RULES OF RANDOMNESS!

Robo, those seem a little premeditated. Did you follow the rules of randomness?

[St. Alphonzo]

Opening Credits: “Transmitterâ€

[AtomicHyperbole]

Yes, you must FOLLOW THE RULES OF RANDOMNESS!

Or be cast herewith into the POOL OF SORROWFUL CATS!

[bastard_robo]

No. Its random. Serious. These are all on my MP3 player. I have it sit next to me at work. I only got about 40 songs on it right now due to my comp being down.

I put on what i listen to the most.

And this is the shit that came out.. honest engin!

[Brocktune]

[quote="St. Alphonzo"]First Day At School: “Seventh Grade Hazing (pt.1)â€

[bastard_robo]

Ok i lied. Not all of them are random.

I put fuck her gentley for prom, just because i didnt go to my prom and i have the D on my mind. Cant see them perform live tonight. And it saddens me.

It's people like you what cause unrest.

I couldn't agree more Brock. 'tis an epic battle.

People are always hatin' on BNL, but I'll be damned if I don't LOVE that song.

[rserocki]

[Brocktune]

somebody likes them some soundtracks

[Seppuku]

Opening Credits: Why Does it Hurt When I Pee? Frank Zappa. Hahaha I think I’m gonna like this movie.

Waking Up: Steven Malkmus – Baby C’mon. I can think of worse tracks to wake up to….which brings me to………………

First Day At School: Abba – Dancing Queen. WTF, I honestly had no idea I had this track in my library. Ugh, it brings back the memory of that one time in Non-School Uniform Day when I went to school in a skirt as a joke. (True Story)

Falling In Love: Faust – Sad Skinhead. … … … Umm does this mean I’m gonna meet Sinead O’ Conner some time soon and whisk her off her feet? (Great track by the way)

Fight Song: The Meters – Darling, Darling, Darling. Um, pillow fight maybe.

Breaking Up: David Bowie – Ashes to Ashes. Yeah, I can see that I guess.

Prom: Patti Smith – Rock n Roll Negrah. If they had a DJ who’d play tracks like this at my prom, then maybe I’d actually have gone.

Life is good: Jean-Michel Jarre – Oxygene IV. Nothing like a Frenchman to bring out the joie de vivre in a guy.

Mental Breakdown: NOW THIS IS A MIRACLE!! Stone Temple Pilots - Bi-Polar Bear

Driving: Midnight Oil – The Dead Heart. Nothing like an Australian group to remind you of that wide, open road.

Flashback: Thelonious Monk – Green Chimneys. Heh, anything by him would have fitted into the Mental Breakdown category too.

Getting Back Together: Roy Harper – I Hate the White Man. Erm, if I’m hooking up with that chick I met at the Black Panther meeting a few years ago, I guess I could do worse

Wedding: Led Zeppelin – Tangerine. I’d play it.

Final Battle: Orange Juice – Rip it Up. I’d probably have preferred some death metal, but this’ll do

Death Scene: Monkey Magic Theme. Hahahaha, I guess Pigsy and Monkey must have had a Deathmatch to see who gets to get dirty with that fine-ass Tripitaka chick…I mean monk

Funeral Song: King Crimson – I Talk to the Wind. Woah… Perfect.

End Credits: New Model Army – Lust For Power. Well, at least another Abba track didn’t come up!

[papalazeru]

BTW...Atomic....recommend something else from myscrape and I'll cut your nads off.

[justcheckin]

omg, just checkin'.... we both got Rapper's Delight.

now THAT in itself is funny.

haha... at least mine was in mental breakdown =)

[Man-in-the-Box]

Opening Credits: Tesla; Rock Me To The Top (How the hell did that get in there?)

Waking Up: Ramones; Pet Sematary (Not exactly appropriate, but cool nonetheless)

First Day At School: 3 Doors Down; Never Will I Break (Emberrassment washes over me again)

Falling In Love: Metallica; Free Speech For The Dumb (Proof that I didn't cheat)

Fight Song: Kid Rock; Fuck Off (Hearing that made me want to fight... Kid Rock)

Breaking Up: Depeche Mode; Waiting For The Night (I got nothin')

Prom: Ray Charles; You Are My Sunshine (Sounds kinda like my prom, a blind guy singing about sunshine)

Life is good: Elvis; Burning Love (Nice)

Mental Breakdown: Cake; Friend Is A Four Letter Word (One, two, three, four, five... hey wait a minute, I've been duped)

Driving: Days Of The New; Independant Slaves (Hit and miss is right)

Flashback: Clint Black; A Bad Goodbye (Emberrassed yet again, but oddly enough it kinda fits)

Getting Back Together: Eric Clapto; Cocaine (It took copious amounts of cocaine to get her to take me back, but hey whatever works right)

Wedding: Elvis; Jailhouse Rock (That's what happens when you use drugs to get a woman to marry you, sent up the river)

Final Battle: Faith No More; Crack Hitler (In the end, I'll fight Hitler... on crack. Yeah. Anyone notice that drugs seem to be playing a major role towards the end of this here movie)

Death Scene: Refreshments; European Swallow (Yep, once again I'm drawing a blank. I'm sure there's a european Hitler tie-in there, but the song itself just doesn't fit)

Funeral Song: Metallica; Tuesday's Gone (and so is the Man in the Box)

End Credits: Ramones; Danny Says (Works for me)

I hope you enjoy it. That was a lot of fun. Thanks.

[Keepcoolbutcare]

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?

Opening Credits: Omaha - Tapes and Tapes - "The Loon" - I was hoping for something mellow for the opening credits, "I've been waiting a while" "You shouldn't wake me awhile" are some chill, lilting choruses, with "I've been aiding my fall" as a nice summation of my semblance of an existence thus far. Good stuff!

Waking Up: Birdie Brain - The Fiery Furnaces - "Blueberry Boat" - The indie run continues, with a sweet opening couplet, a plaintive sing-song from the twisted mind of Eleanor Friedberger "I hate the steam train that whistles woozy my bird brain / That sends my spaniel insane". Opens up like a syrupy-synth dream...I don't know if it's perfect, but it's damn close. Off my fave Furnace album to boot!

First Day At School: 2 Kindsa Love - JSBX - "Now I Got Worry" Ok, still all indie, and while I fuckin' love the scuzzy blues-punk of Jon Spencer (with a theremin breakdown!), this is one qweird First day at school track. Fun fact... actual first day of kindergarden ended with some plucky local photographer snapping a picture of me and my new bff (what, I was 4!) on the way out. Friendship didn't last the year, maybe he was teh Dumbledore?

Falling In Love: One Dub - Bob Marley - "Songs Of Freedom (Disc 4)". Well, if you just use the beat, it could go along with the awkward fumbling that accompanied the actual falling in love. Or...OR...could be my eternal love for the ganga! Could work in the background for a first time I got blazed scene, though in truth I think we were watching "Yellowbeard".

Fight Song: HAHAHAHA! oh, this is priceless! Interjections! - Essra Mohawk - The Best of Schoolhouse Rock - "Hey! That smarts! Ouch! That hurts! Yow! That's not fair givin' a guy a shot down there!" HAHAHAHAHA!!! Could also work in a comeback to a brawl inducing SNAP. Love it. No one, to my knowledge, has ever thought of setting a fight song to this!

Breaking Up: emo before it got all, well, EMO! Parthogenesis - Lungfish - "Talking Songs for Walking" SOOO many Lungfish songs could really work as a breakup mosh-mope, this one, well, the lyrics don't quite do it, but damn if the steady thrum of bass in the Ian MacKaye produced, (circa 1992 all ye' whippersnappers!) strobbing hardcore funk-thrash doesn't simulate heartbreak in all it's wanton wretchedness.

Prom: Deep Inside - Fishbone - "Truth and Soul" - Hey, subversive thrash from one of my most cherished adolescent acts, a band I saw twice in a span of a week in HS. The hazy prom memories I'm able to recall...Limo, NYC, The Plaza, grindin' with my girl in the middle of the dancefloor, winning Prom King (ugly, ugly school), limo, party boat, breakfast, fucking, collapsing on the bed at 7:30am don't really mesh with this get the crowd moshing anthem. At all.

Life is good: Collarbone - Fujiya & Miyagi - "Transparent Things" - Essentially one of those lyrics-is-a-list-of-bones, but goddamn if they don't pull of appropriating the funk strut of seminal Krautrockers Can and Neu! to an eerie degree. Japanese, by way of Germany. I think you can find this on Pitchfork's Ultimate Mix-Tape dealio, and if you don't have it yet I couldn't recommend it enough. "Got to get a new pair of shoes to kick it with her". Life is good, or at least infinitely more tolerable, with this pumping in the background. That bass line is fucking dope!

Mental Breakdown: Sekou Story - Nas - Street's Disciple - Good track, but taint for buggin out. Tho' Nas does sing as Scarlett, the chick in the track, perhaps a twinge of sexual ambivalence as I suck dick for weed money? Best to leave that thought alone...

Driving: heh. Rock With You - Michael Jackson - "Off the Wall" - Say what you will about Jack-O, he was the King of Pop for good reasons. Might make some random disco-dancey type of mix, would work if I'm headin' to a club and turned on the local "Dumbledore Dance Party" or "Urban Dance" station, 'cuz it's sure to be the best thing on the radio at that given moment.

Flashback: Don't Get Lost in Heaven - Gorillaz - "Demon Days" Ahh, the halcyon days of yesterday (2k5) when I was less gray, less embittered , more full of...oh, who am I kidding. Tho' if the question is about an acid flashback, it actually works kinda well. "Put me in a cab to suburbia I just took a line but it wasn't with you / There was more of it there, when I got back home / But you had left me,you don't know my soul..." Would induce only mild paranoia, and that's WAY better than a full on flashback...

Getting Back Together: Hello - Lyrics Born - "Later That Day" - "If you gotta dolla' you better save it for tomorrow it's a love thang..." I could see myself pumping this all Lloyd Dobler-esque from a Boombox. Not that it works, lyrically, sonically, emotionally. I can just see myself doing it.

Wedding: oh man...Recipe for Hate - Bad Religion - "Recipe for Hate" - oh man, she LOVES Bad Religion, and this is one blazing 'lil pub-punk burner, but unless we're tying our bonds over our mutual hatred for all things not us...say wait, THIS IS PERFECT! Love may tear us apart, but our mutual hatred for all you boring gentlemen will keep us in Holy Matrimony forever! Plus, hey, slam-dancing at the Wedding, how cool would that be! Great, great band, sure it's message music, but Greg makes the medicine easy to swallow with bombastic, robust choruses.

Final Battle: O.S.T (Original Soundtrack) - The People Under the Stairs - "O.S.T." Yes, named from THAT Wes Craven flick, PUtS spit braggadocious rhymes over some sick, slick, soul-funk samples crate dug by one of the finest diggers in the biz. They've never been popular, never blew up, not known for singles (which in the rap biz means no one hears of ya') their albums work, and work well, as a cohesive whole. I've put it in for folks as background music and always, at some point, 'bout halfway through the album, I'm inevitably asked who these cats are, why haven't they heard of 'em, blah blah blah. Good act, a dime a dozen, sure, but professionalism is a trait I admire in my hip-hop heads. Workmanlike competency.

Death Scene: Jimmy - Tool - "Ænima" - I know someone else put this on my i-tunes, 'cuz while I know I purchased this album, I also know I sold it back, a standard practice of mine with Tool albums until I stopped caring for Maynard's worldview alltogether. I always LOVED the albums on first listen, but quickly grew bored with them. Not a bad band for a death scene, and while the track is solid, not the one I'd of chosen for my death...that would be Opiate, still my fave Tool track ever, and one they never really moved beyond.

Funeral Song: Had a Dad - Jane's Addiction - Works, and may work well at my funeral...if coming from the perspective of my children (also would work at my biological dads funeral, the fucker). Gotta say, haven't heard this for a long time but it still holds up. They coulda had the world, and their breakup contributed immensely to my jaded and cynical outlook on life. You broke my heart Perry.

End Credits: Choking on a Wishbone - Atmosphere - Se7en - So many better Slug verses to end this. Would've preferred Nothing but Sunshine or Shrapnel or Always Coming Back Home to You from Sluggo & Ant, but random rules is random rules.

[Keepcoolbutcare]

Fight Song: Kid Rock; Fuck Off (Hearing that made me want to fight... Kid Rock)

HAHAHAHAHA!

Getting Back Together: Eric Clapto; Cocaine (It took copious amounts of cocaine to get her to take me back, but hey whatever works right)

darn' 'tootin!

Wedding: Elvis; Jailhouse Rock (That's what happens when you use drugs to get a woman to marry you, sent up the river)

or in Kurt's case, you end up with a shotgun in your mouth just so you can escape the Succubus.

Final Battle: Faith No More; Crack Hitler (In the end, I'll fight Hitler... on crack. Yeah. Anyone notice that drugs seem to be playing a major role towards the end of this here movie)

Awesome!

First Day At School: Johnny Cash - What On Earth (Will You Do For Heaven's Sake). Heh.

Driving: Gnarls Barkley - Crazy. I imagine I could do some fancy cornering to this. Hope the budget covers a fancy motor.

Flashback: The Clash - Know Your Rights. Cool, you see I have the right to life unless taken by a cop or an aristocrat, I have the right to food as long as I don't mind humiliation, and bonus I have the right to free speach as long as I'm not dumb enough to actually try it. I know all this 'cos I had a flash back.

Getting Back Together: The Flintstones movie/Meet The Flintstones. Just odd, dark and a little scary, perhaps I should be wondering at this point if its worh actually getting back together. Oooh, cheesy sax, party! Mmmmm funk guitar! Horns! Fuck it, we're back together! Wow, if ever I form a cheesy covers band then this is on the play list. I never knew Fred was a pimp before.

Wedding: Tom Waits - Redrum. So it appears my wedding is a Lynchian moment, do I seriously want to lift that veil? That organist sounds creepy, play the wedding march fuck face, quickly, please!

Final Battle: King Kong Lives - Return to Borneo / End Credits. More Kong!! Its a heart stretchign final battle, full of poignancy and sentimentality. Is Jessica Tandy in this movie?

Death Scene: The Fall - Youwanner. Hmmm, cataclysmic, exciting perhaps or a nice counterpoint to an overdose from too much partying.

Funeral Song: Tom Waits - Shiny Things. "I'm not dancing here tonight" Tom wails, no shit I say.

End Credits: Gnarls Barkley - Necromancing. You may now leave the theatre and discuss the movie or perhaps watch the credits roll. Kinda a Michael Mann ending or Michael Bay...

You aren't supposed to give it thought!!!

1. Open your library
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question / scene, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend your cool...

DJJ, if you're going to be such a stickler for details, then I'll just have to stop staring at your av.

[darkjedijaina]

just try.

Why can't i see the pictures????

[havocSchultz]

Why can't i see the pictures????

Go to your profile and select "show avs and sigs" or something like that...

It defaults to them being off everytime you go into profile...

[thebostonlocksmith]

Cheers man, i did try that... i can see some but not all... including Jaina's and yours... But thanks anyway.
