I really don’t have much to say today. Thanksgiving at Roger and Kat’s rocked out ’cause the company was goood and the food yummy.
But, today I am all run out.
So, now amuse yourself with a “If Your Life Was a Movie What Would the Soundtrack Be” meme … found via one or two (or three) other bloggers.
“If Your Life Was a Movie What Would the Soundtrack Be”
The rules:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc.).
2. Put it on shuffle.
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.
6. Don’t lie and try to pretend you’re cool.
Opening Credits:
“It’s No Good” by Depeche Mode
“I have all the time in world to make you mine. It is written in the stars above … you can run but you cannot hide.”
Waking Up:
“The Night I Fell in Love” by The Pet Shop Boys
Hmmmmmm. Gay Boy makes it with supposed Straight Boy. Sounds like a kick I have been on before (Evil One).
First Day at School:
“Complication” by Nine Inch Nails
A NIN instrumental track … fast and loud.
Falling In Love:
“A Thousand Hours” by The Cure (Studio Demo)
“A thousand wasted hours a day just to fill your heart for a second …”
Sounds very familiar.
Fight Song:
“Give Me It” by The Cure (Studio Demo)
Works for me.
Breaking Up:
“This Corrosion” by The Sisters of Mercy
Hmmmmmm. Not sure this would be an idea breakup song.
Prom:
“Maxine” by Donald Fagen
I could see this as a slow dance at the Prom.
Life:
“Some Speculation” by The Pet Shop Boys
Dark. Thumping. Mistrust and Deceit.
Mental Breakdown:
“Sexbomb” by Tom Jones
Hmmmmmm. This is about as far from a mental breakdown that you can get.
Driving:
“Shopping” by The Pet Shop Boys
Peppy song but something is telling me I have too much Pet Shop Boys on my iPod.
Flashback:
“In Your House” by The Cure (Live in Amsterdam)
Good flashback song. Definately from the period of the first boyfriend.
Getting Back Together:
“Fight” by The Cure
“Never give in.”
I guess this works … and also informs me I have too much Cure on the iPod as well.
Wedding:
“The Carnival is Over” by Dead Can Dance
Oh-So Somber … fitting for the fact that I will never be “married.”
Birth of Child:
“Crooked Teeth” by Death Cab for Cutie
Pop hooks … that’s about it. Might work for the bouncing baby that I won’t ever have.
Final Battle:
“Sugar Hiccup” by The Cocteau Twins
Yes. I am a Pansy and this is my Final Battle Song.
Death Scene:
“Bruce Lee” by Underworld
“They’ve got the wrong bloke.”
Indeed.
Funeral Song:
“Shoplifters of the World Unite” by The Smiths
And Always …

Love. That would be nice.

This is creepy, weird, and a little telling. God, I’ve got some crap in my music library. This list was compiled by using unedited, 29,000 + songs in my main iTunes library. BTW, does this mean I’ll actually have to play Whitney at my wedding if gay marriage is ever made legal?
