The Soundtrack To Your Life
Offline Saw this elsewhere, so I decided to post this here; try it out.
IF YOUR LIFE WAS A FILM, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your music 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, just let the tunes go randomly.

"The powerful have always created false images of the weak."
I can't help but notice that there seems to be a punk/hardcore connection here. I mean, Bouncing Souls? I had no idea people outside of my area even knew who they were, much less listened to them.
Could there be a correlation between punk music and atheism?
If god takes life he's an indian giver
Maybe - I don't listen to punk, but then again, I'm not fully atheist.
I don't really listen to music. So It would be a silent movie
Sounds made up...

No, I am not angry at your imaginary friends or enemies.
There's a relation between punk and alienation and non-conformity.
I'm on my parent's computer. I don't have internet on mine currently but when I move into my new house next month I'll write in this thread.

"I, on the other hand, do not feel it necessary to construct a lofty meaning for myself. I prefer the style of the butterfly myself. I will eat what I want, flit about aimlessly, and enjoy the sunshine. Then, I will die. " - Nero, RRS Forum User
I just had to comment on the Mogwai, since they are one of my favorties. Good choice in music! lol.
If god takes life he's an indian giver
I only listen to XM Classical and XM Comedy. I can tell you this though; the soundtrack would just be my hushed voice repeating every minute or so, "You've gotta be fucking kidding me." This frankly is what is going through mymind most of the day.
I wake up, and the alarm did not work. You've gotta be fucking kidding me. The hot water heater won't kick on for the shower. You've gotta be fucking kidding me. The secretary wants a raise. You've gotta be fucking kidding me. At lunch, the restaurant doesn't have my reservation. You've gotta be fucking kidding me. Some bird shit all over the interior of my convert while I ran into the library. You've gotta be fucking kidding me. My sister has randomly shown up in the evening while I am entertaining a female guest. You've gotta be fucking kidding me.

Guess we're shit outta luck.
Ah well, it's okay.
Don't feel like the Lone Ranger. The only reason I could "shuffle" is because iTunes came already installed on my Mac.
I've had an iPod for several years, but still haven't quite gotten it figured out. It's not a big deal, though, because I bought it for a voice recorder so it would be easy to transfer "recordings" to my Mac, not for the music functions.

Hmm, interesting. I particularly like the opening credits and the waking up tracks. I'm not sure about the explosives while driving though. The final credits track is particularly fitting as well with its line "I know I was born and I know that I'll die. The inbetween is mine. I am mine." and a nice coincidence to have Pearl Jam for both credits.

My extencive Metallica and Marilyn manson collections have soaked up a few there, This could have been a funnier list if it hadnt. My music folder contains tons of odd stuff.
"Everyone knows that God drives a Plymouth: "And He drove Adam And Eve from the Garden of Eden in His Fury."
And that Moses liked British cars: "The roar of Moses' Triumph was heard throughout the hills."
On the other hand, Jesus humbly drove a Honda but didn't brag about it, because in his own words: "I did not speak of my own Accord." "
I listen to NPR so I would be a documentary.
I just wanted to highlight this, in case anyone missed it. Holy shit, you Europeans are crazy.
