if my life was a movie...

if my life was a movie, what would my soundtrack be?

so, here's how it works:
1. open your music library
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.

(side note: i swear i did exactly what it says above, and they came out just like they are below... but some of them are bizarrely perfect... i guess i'm just naturally cool, no pretending here)

opening credits: "alameda" by elliot smith (uh... ok?)


waking up: "i can’t" by radiohead (so true... so so true)

first day at school: "american idiot" by green day (hahaha... wow)


in love: "talk" by coldplay (for all those poor young men i've dated and had oh-so-many "talks" with... i truly am sorry for putting you through that)

fight song: "just another" by pete yorn (you know me... all i do is throw punches)

breaking up: "delicate" by damien rice (cause i'm such a princess)

prom: "the word" by the beatles (we're not going to talk about prom)

life's ok: "black" by sarah mclachlan (so, i guess it's NOT ok)

mental breakdown: "(night time is) the right time" by ray charles (i always say that... the only time to have a breakdown is late at night... definitely)

driving: "a foggy day" by frank sinatra (i hate driving in fog)

flashback: "china roses" by enya (remembering them is my favorite part)

getting back together: "nothing left to lose" by mat kearney (so we might as well)

birth of child: "silver bells" by bing crosby (so maybe it's christmas... )

wedding: "it’s good to be in love" by frou frou (i SWEAR i didn't cheat)

final battle: "i’ll be seeing you" by billie holiday (seeing you getting your face kicked in by my round-house kick to your head!! grrrrrrrr!)

death scene: "witchcraft" by wolfmother (i always knew that's how i was going to go)

funeral song: "sadness" by enigma (i SWEAR! ... and i expect everyone to cry!)

end credits: "running to stand still" by u2 (might as well)


ok... now it's your turn!

Janaya, you make me smile.

Well, my soundtrack would sound a little different, first off becasue my shuffle would consist of one CD at a time and Godsmack and Rage Against the Machine don't make the best backdrop for "the birth of a child". Secondly, because everybody has figured out I'm a dork so I don't need to pretend. But If I could choose (yes gainst the rules)....
