Just Because I wanted to see what would come up...
I don't think my music collection is very big, or particularly interesting, but this meme caught my attention so I thought I'd throw my music on random and see what the soundtrack of my life is:
1. Opening Credits: Adia by Sarah McLaughlin
"Adia I do believe I've failed you" -- an oddly depressing beginning.
2. Waking Up: Gypsy Kings "Bambolero"
Fittingly Upbeat, I think. I do enjoy being a morning person.
3. First Day At School: "Vengeance and Greed" by The Gruff
The happiest vengeance song I've ever heard -- perhaps I was traumatized by school? (not that I can remember)
4.Falling In Love: Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker "Hot House"
Strange, somewhat old-fashioned, and with no discernible melody or purpose. But I like it nonetheless.
5.Fight Song: "Nothing Better" By the Postal Service
This isn't so much a fight song as it is an attempt to make peace by bending over backwards to accomadate someone turning a deaf ear. Which is just about right...
6.Breaking up: "Billy's Death" by Aaron Copland (from the Billy the Kid)
Quiet, melancholy, with a certain inevitability about it. No loud drums or fireworks, but a sense of inevitability nonetheless.
7. Prom: "Is Anybody Home?" Our Lady Peace
No idea what this means.
8. Life: "One Moment of Grace" by Night Sun
"This time I'm ready, I will journey high. Steer true, keep it steady. This time I will fall -- and even when I fall I still get a chance to reach the sun. I don't get one chance, I get a million..."
9. Mental Breakdown: "New Aaron" by Don Ross
Although oddly, this music actually makes me pretty happy...
10. Driving: "Black and White Haru" from the Fruits Basket soundtrack
Appropriate since this music makes me think of Toria, who I've been driving with countless times. "Love and Joy" (or some song by Erasure) would have been better, but this'll do in a pinch, I guess.
11. Flashback: "Flicks" by Frou Frou
Ironically enough, I don't actually know this song. If that's not a metaphor for my bad memory, I don't know what is.
12. Getting back together: "Electronic Renaissance" by Belle and Sebastien
13. Wedding: "Miss Independant" by Kelly Clarkson.
"Miss 'don't let a man interfere'." teehee.
14. Birth of Child : "Secret" from the Fruits Basket soundtrack.
Uh-ohh....
15. Final Battle: "I Will Follow" by U2
"I was looking at myself, I was blind I could not see."
16. Funeral Song: "Gotta Knock a Little Harder" from Cowboy Bebop
17. End Credits: "The Rules" by the Tragically Hip
It's a good song, but ultimately I have absolutely no idea what it means.
Hmm. I'm not entirely happy with the way that turned out, but hey, that's what 'random' is all about, right?
