807 : Soundtrack of my life

Jun 12, 2009 12:54

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?

So, here's how it works:

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 and try to pretend your cool... and alot of the songs fit with the setting

Opening Credits:

Waking Up: "Who Would Have Thought" (Darren Hayes)
Who would have thought it could be amazing? Who would have thought the tiny courageous? Who would have thought that love so belated could save me and bring me back to you?

First Day At School: "Circus" (Britney Spears)
All eyes on me in the center of the ring just like a circus! When I crack that whip, everybody gonna trip just like a circus! Don't stand there watchin' me, follow me, show me what you can do!

Falling In Love: "Back to the Start"
Believe me when I say that I cannot apologize enough when all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love, and if it's not too late could you please find it deep within your heart to try and go back, go back to the start?

Fight Song: "Dr. Online" (Zeromancer)
It's the beginning of the end-- you are one step closer! It's the beginning of the end-- say amen! 1-800-SUICIDE!, or maybe Dr. Online could help you die! You need wings to fly, you need someone to take your place when you are gone!

Breaking Up: "Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie" (A Perfect Circle)
Sitting here like a loaded gun waiting to go off, I've got nothing to do but shoot my mouth off! Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, I need more, I need more! Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, don't ask what for, don't ask what for!

Prom night: "The Red" (Chevelle)
They say freak when you're singled out. The red, it filters through. So lay down, the threat is real when his sight goes red again... seeing red again!

Life: "Relax [Take it Easy]" (Mika)
Took a ride to the end of the line where no one ever goes; ended up on a broken train with nobody I know, but the pain and the longing's the same where the dying... now I'm lost and I'm screaming for help! Relax, take it easy, for there is nothing that we can do!

Mental Breakdown: "Phantom of the Opera" (Sarah Brightman + Antonio Banderas)
In sleep he sang to me, in dreams he came; that voice which calls to me and speaks my name. And do I dream again? For now I find the PotO is there inside my mind!

Driving: "100 Years" (Five for Fighting)
I'm 33 for a moment, still the man, but you see I'm a they-- a kid on the way, a family on my mind. I'm 45 for a moment, the sea is high and I'm heading into a crisis, chasing the years of my life. 15, there's still time for you, time to buy, time to lose yourself within a morning star...
(This would be more fitting for Flashback, I think, but whatever.)

Flashback: "Mr. Blue Sky" (Electric Light Orchestra)
Mr. Blue, you did it right but soon comes Mr. Night, creepin' over-- now his hand is on your shoulder! Nevermind-- I'll remember you this, I'll remember you this way! Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why you had to hide away for so long! Where did we go wrong?

Getting back together: "X-Amount of Words" (Blue October)
Now deleted and defeated I will stand on my own. Yeah, your memory that punches me has broken the bone. Give me recipes for sorry, I'm admitting I'm wrong. Still, your memory that punches me has broken the bone.

Wedding: "Where the Wild Roses Grow" (Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds)
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow. She lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief, and I kissed her good-bye-- said "all beauty must die"-- as I lent down and planted a rose 'tween her teeth.

Birth of Child: "Monsoon" (Tokio Hotel)
And when I lose myself I think of you. Together we'll be running somewhere new, through the monsoon... just me and you...!

Final Battle: "Hero" (Darren Hayes)
I was trying to hide my opposing side, trying to reconcile my Jekyll and Hyde. Ladies and gentlemen, listen up, please, I don't wanna be your hero! (No, I am not open, parts of me are broken!)

Funeral Song: "The Boys are Too Refined" (The Hush Sound)
To the edge with a car, he sent it off a cliff just for the spark-- to hell with why! Always quick to follow, the boys are too refined. Won't matter tomorrow, oh to be in his mind. And if the timing is right to sneak off into the night, I'll let myself be taken just for the thrill...!

Final Credits: "Center of the Sun" (Conjure One)
And she sings, 'They say the most horrible things, but I hear violins. When I close my eyes, I am at the center of the sun, and I cannot be hurt by anything this wicked world has done...

--

In summary...
     I wake up with a setup for a dramatic chickflick, and go to school as the center of attention (HA). Then I fall in love with my best friend, whom I'd spent the last several years being a petty bitch to, and grovel for her forgiveness.
     For my big battle scene with whoever my enemy is, I manage to get them to commit suicide. Then I break up with my girlfriend because I'm angsty. Because of this, I go to prom and go on a rampage, killing everybody.
     This isn't even my mental breakdown yet, though! First, I live my life just being unhappy with some new love interest, but accepting the unhappiness and just trying to go with the flow because why bother trying to do otherwise? Then I have my mental breakdown where I start hearing voices and walking through mirrors into hidden worlds.
     At the tail end of my mental breakdown, I go for a drive, listening to mellow, nostalgic music as I reflect back upon the different stages of my life. I begin to have flashbacks to bluer skies (har har) and happier days when I was still that girl who'd walk into school and have all eyes on her.
     Eventually, I get over my mental breakdown to just be my usual emo-y self, and get back together with my previous love. Judging by our song being "X-Amount of Words," we're probably both a bit insane by this point and locked into a mutually abusive relationship.
     We decide to get married. It's a bloody affair, with one of us killing the other amidst a field of roses to preserve the beauty and perfection of our effed-up relationship.
     I give birth to my child, which is interesting because it must be immaculate conception, or somewhere along the way I had an affair with a guy, as my best friend/deceased spouse are both supposed to be female (judging by the lyrics). This child becomes my world and my obsession.
     I have my final battle, but it's anticlimatic: instead of making anyone commit suicide, or killing my entire prom, I try to shut myself away from the world that's putting too much pressure on me. My child probably thinks I'm insane and abandons me.
     In the end, I engage in a wild and crazy fling with a charming but reckless man (I've apparently given up on lesbianism?) before, caught up in our whirlwind life, I finally die.
     Credits roll, showing a young girl spinning around and dancing in a market that's full of people trying to devour and abuse her.

... Actually, I would totally watch that movie.
