I Spy, Guster.
Falling in Love:
Slow Motion, David Gray.
[Also, a perfect fit]

[Doesn't exactly fit, unless the fight's shown in slow motion in winter or something, but I'm not going to tell Chris Martin he doesn't belong in anything of mine]

[I picture getting completely drunk with friends at a bar with this song]

The Hill, Marketa Irglova.
[I think this fits beautifully]
