The soundtrack of your life meme, as snagged from
slodwick , who got it elsewhere.
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.
This is actually my second pass at this; I did something that made the first one disappear completely. Grrrrr.

Opening Credits:
Headin' Out, Presidents of the United States of America, Freaked Out and Small
I've been thinking about heading out / where I've never been / I've been thinking about finding out / how to find the end
Birth:
I'm a Beliver (repriese), Eddie Murphy, Shrek soundtrack
And then I saw her face/ Now I'm a believer / Not a trace / Of doubt in my mind / I'm in love / I'm a believer / I couldn't leave her / If I tried
First day at school:
Brilliancy (Instrumental), Dixie Chicks, Thank Heavens for Dale Evans
One of their early self-produced albums before they sold out to Nashville.
Falling in Love:
Homeward Bound, Dropkick Murphys, The Gang's All Here
I've seen street corner preachers spending discharge pay / Between periods of getting stiff and happy tipplers singing songs of discontentment / With each and every passing sip from the bookmaker's clerk on the rowdy racing circuit / Known as Tom Sharkey's brawling bar to the tenders at the pubs and illegal sporting clubs / In this town I call my home
Fight Song:
Bendin' The Rules, The Badlees, River Songs
Pity my brother / For how he's suffered me / Through nameless towns / And cold prairie / For restless women / At the end of the line / Who tendered checks for / A promise divine
Breaking Up:
Heaven Scent (instrumental), Mac Umba, Don't Hold your Breath
Mac Umba is a bagpipe band. They're really good.
School Dance:
Red Barn Stomp (instrumental), OysterBand, Little Rock to Leipzig
Life:
Big Booty, Willie Nelson, It Will Always Be
She said I ain't gonna fix you no more sausage /Biscuits and gravy on the side / You done said the wrong thing to me baby / And you can kiss big booty good-bye
Mental Breakdown:
L-Y, Tom Lehrer, Revisted
You're wearing your squeaky shoes / And right there taking a snooze / Is a tiger, so how do you walk on by? / Silently ... silently ... silent ... L-Y
Driving:
Twa Corbies, Boiled in Lead, Old Lead
As I was walking all alane, / I heard twa corbies makin' a mane. / The tane intae the tither did say, O, / "Whaur sall we gang and dine the day, O, / whaur sall we gang and dine the day?"
Flashback:
Yoda and the Force (instrumental), John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back soundtrack
Wedding:
Underground, David Bowie, Labyrinth soundtrack
It's only forever, not long at all / all lost and lonely / no one can blame you / for walking away
Birth Of Child:
Elena's Shoes, OysterBand, Deserters
Rebels take the palace, what do they find / in the cabinets of power secrets left behind? / Is it judgment, judgment, cut down to the bone? / No it's 19-carat bathtaps ivory telephones ... / It's black satin sheets crates of German beer / pornographic movies, a shattered chandelier / sharkskin tuxedos, powder crystal on the sleeve / closets full of objects you would not believe
Final Battle:
Drive South, John Hiatt, Slow Turning
I didn't say we wouldn't hurt anymore / That's how you learn, you just get burned / But we don't have to feel like dirt anymore / Though love's not earned, Baby it's our turn / We were always looking for true north / With our heads in the clouds, just a little off course / I left the motor running, now if you're feeling down and out
Death Scene:
City of Sails (instrumental), Midnight Syndicate, Dungeons and Dragons
Funeral:
Too Late Now, OysterBand, Ride
Well, it's a nice bit of heritage with an electric gate / you tell her: Darling, this is a happy man's estate / stop and frown now, like a good dog bit your hand / all these years and you still don't understand / that it's too late now / for English Roses / for your sunset shires /
to chase the milkmaids/to play the squire / for second chances/for a change of heart / you won't be needed when this whole thing falls apart / it's time to go
Ending Credits:
Good to Me (instrumental), Eric Johnson, Bloom
Headin' Out, Presidents of the United States of America, Freaked Out and Small
I've been thinking about heading out / where I've never been / I've been thinking about finding out / how to find the end
