What Song or songs would you consider to be on the soundtrack to your life & why?

The main tracks for me are:

Misunderstood - by pink - cuz basically I was that girl in school
"Never win first place, I dont support the team, I cant direction & my socks are never clean" (Minus the sock thing)

True Colours - Cindy Lauper, & Fix You by coldplay: reminds of the best and worst time of my life to date

Learning to Fly - Tom Petty - kinda of how i felt when i left home for the first time

.. i'm sure there are the others, I think my personal soundtrack would be a double almbum, but they are the three that come to mind first.

What About You?

Dozens, literally.
Most have been oriented around my demise, but i suspect that a lot of Thomas Newman's music would be apt.
With a little Liquid Tension Experiment.
And Eric Serra.
Peppered with Monty Python.
Also Tweaker.

That's pretty broad, i realize, but i'll specify later, i guess.
I will throw in "Liar" from Rollins Band and
"Beautiful" and "Longing" from Drown.
"I Can See Now" from Dead Can Dance.

Really - there's so many.

yeah.. and they change as well as time goes on :)

Wherever there is Polka, there is Keruvalia.

One Week by Bare Naked Ladies
Wonderful Life by Tina Cousins
Run Rabbit Junk by HIDE; Yoko Kanno

That's so far, I actually started making a playlist a while ago.

Grateful Dead

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EE2KLN5xsWA&search=moloko%20feelings

I'm having a very entrenched Moloko period at the moment, especially with their "Familiar Feelings" for today.

Yoko Kanno

Oh yeah - Yoko Kanno - Voices.
The a capella is beautiful, all versions are.
I'd have to mention that one.
Macross + fan, of course.

'Round Here - Counting Crows
The Freshman - Verve Pipe
Hurt - Johnny Cash

Eh, you get the idea.

'Round Here - Counting Crows
The Freshman - Verve Pipe
Hurt - Johnny Cash

Eh, you get the idea.

johnny cash version of that song makes me cry

The Freshman - Verve Pipe

DEFINITELY.

At the moment I'd have to say "Silver" by Jesu. Only because my girlfriend broke up with me on sunday and I need some massive post-metal riffs to make me feel better.

Meh, almost everything I listen to qualifies.

I don't have any sound tracks, but I've had lots of weird and wonderful experiences with music -- especially classical. For example, I was with a woman in her kitchen while she had some classical music playing; at the same time she was relating to me a detailed plot summary of some movie. When her narrative reached some climatic point, so did the music -- there was definetly some correspondemce between the music and her narration. Anyway, I've noticed in various situations quite often. It is quite noetic
when the two pendulams start to swing in unison.

Hmm, I do have favourite songs, but not really so many deeply siginificant songs for a specific time in my life.

The only ones coming to mind right now are F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A.L.L.E.D.L.O.V.E by Pulp, which kinda echoed some aspects of a couple of relationships a few years ago, and, these days, Mad World by Michael Andrews feat. Gary Jules. I'm not really as depressed as to say that the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I ever had :p, but something about the general melancholy and weirdness of that song really strikes a chord at the moment. Also, it's an extraordinarily beautiful song, so it might be just that.

That'd be in mine too.

The way my life is currently going I would have to say a subtle blend between the Laurel & Hardy theme and the Benny Hill one.

Come to think of it, I can't think of too many happy songs that I relate to myself. That sucks. And looking over some, I don't want to quote them. I'd feel so....erm...emo.

You may be right, I may be crazy.
But it just may be a looonatic you're looking for.
Its too late to fight. Its too late to change me.
You may be wrong for all I know, but you may be right.

:D

Just about anything dark and depressing or something about failure fits perfectly within my life right now.

Of the top of my head the following tracks would have to feature on my life soundtrack:

Nothing - Neophobia
God Hates Us All - Slayer
I'm Only Happy When It Rains - Garbage
Cementary Gates - Pantera

I guess also
Mad World by Michael Andrews feat. Gary Jules.:(

I really don't like that version of the song. The original (by Tears for Fears) manages to convey the same melancholy in the words despite the bouncy and rather jolly 80s synths that back them, and the Gary Jules version somehow makes the words empty because of the funereal music.

I'd probably include Green Day, Rammstein, Placebo, Tool, Duke Spirit, Mogwai, 65daysofstatic and plenty more in a soundtrack of my life. Possibly Tom McRae as well.

Meh, I disagree. The extra melancholy makes it stand out all the more IMO.

Actually, I heard another version of it that was even better than the Gary Jules one. Buggered if I can find it though, or even remember who did it. Sigh.

Some people think Radiohead make suicidal music...

The whole lemming suicide thing is actually a result of a time traveller playing a prank on them by taking Gery Jules' Mad World back to the first ever lemming nest(?...do they live in nests...I don't know) and playing it on a loop to them. Now they kill themselves because of an ancestral memory of the song.

*pokes you to go look for it some more*

Parisienne Walkways - Gary Moore ....

Reminds me of one of my most relaxed and happy holidays.
Heard that whilst relaxing in a small boat on the shore of a sea alone,
during my girlfriend and another fellow were scanning the surrounding area for some fresh beer :D

Sad, but it's the only song coming into my mind now,relating to a specific situation.
Funny, because this situation is mostly about beer :)
Years ago ... should listen to that song again.

The entire "A Grand don't come for free" album by the Streets.

Also Lily Allen's "LDN (http://theshoyshoyboy.blogspot.com/2006/05/lily-allen-ldn-video.html)", Emiliana Torrini's "Sunny Road (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixX9V-Hy_yc&search=sunny%20road)", Samy Deluxe's "Weck mich auf (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIrrURh8urk&search=samy%20deluxe)". And probably a few more. Rachmaninov is flying about in my head right now, but I can't remember what the music is called, I'm not usually into Classical stuff.

Triumphant. :) (http://www.theredpaintings.com/mp3/the%20red%20paintings%20-%20mad%20world.mp3)
Yay! :fluffle:

I like it. Even though I like the new one even better (of course that's also the one I'm more used to, so that's a bit unfair). I think his voice is a mix between Michael Stipe, Kurt Cobain and some generic Brit Pop mixed in and it's kind of weird to hear the song like that. The (strangely scratchy) cello and especially the guitars were way too prominent for my taste and made for a way too driving rhythm, imho (but maybe that was just the recording or even just the sound on my laptop).
But still - if I didn't know the Gary Jules one, that would have been my favourite. I'll definitely save the link - who knows, maybe there are dozens more versions out there that can one day fill my hypothetical "I feel so sad and woozy" IPod playlist. :p

The entire "A Grand don't come for free" album by the Streets. Yes yes oh yay.

Sorry. :p I always have to do that when somebody mentions the Streets. *giggles*

Yes yes oh yay.
:p

I like concept albums which tell a whole long story. And this is a decent, everyday-type story, told in a neat way, and it's got something for every mood.

Them Bones - Alice in Chains
Plush - Stone Temple Pilots
Spoonman - Soundgarden
Superunknown - Soundgarden
Golden Brown - The Stranglers
Gimme Shelter - Rolling Stones

Yay! :fluffle:

Maybe. You're kind-of right with the voice, I think, but I didn't have any problem with the backing music itself. But then, our taste differs a bit :p

Hehehe...I have one of those, except I don't have an evil Ipod.

Them Bones - Alice in Chains

Cool song, but I would pick the song "Dirt" from that album.

Plush - Stone Temple Pilots
Spoonman - Soundgarden
Superunknown - Soundgarden

Also pretty cool, but i'd probably pick "Mailman" over those two Soundgarden songs.

Dead Kennedys - Too Drunk to Fuck

Spoonman - Soundgarden


Got a heroin habit you've not told us about?

Hehehe...I have one of those, except I don't have an evil Ipod.Hee, I have neither, but I'd really like one of the latter, just to ogle it all day. :p Which, incidentally, might be why I just bought this (http://img.ferra.ru/pubimages/70252.jpg) cell phone. I'm such a sucker for superficialities. But look how pretty it is! ;p

So what if he does? :p

I'm guessing he doesn't, which is why I find the choice of that particular song odd. :p

A bit of:

Bad day by Daniel Powter
Just a Day by Feeder
Life is a rollercoaster by Ronan Keating

and probably lots more..

off the top of my head-remembering the numerous ups and downs-
Dirty Deeds- AC/DC
Black- Pearl Jam
Of Wolf And Man- Metallica

These days- Its a Beautiful Day- U2

Things are good these days and I'm in a good mood.

I'm Just a Kid, and Life is a Nightmare - Simple Plan? Sum41? Blink182? What the hell?

I think that one ONLY applies to me.

This is hard. Think I'll just pick five.

Gackt - Oasis
Reel Big Fish - Never Had To Knock On Wood
Pixies - Where Is My Mind
Happy Mondays - Kinky Afro
Petshop Boys - Numb

Oh and both the Stone Roses albums.

Reel Big Fish - Never Had To Knock On Wood

I believe you're thinking of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones' tune.

Birth to age 7: Beach Boys, bubblegum rock, and some Patty Larkin thrown in for flavor.
Age 7 to 12: The Donnas, and other assorted brat punk/rock.
Age 12 to 18: Nirvana. Maybe some NIN for those barely-pubescent nights at home. Ahh, angst.
Age 18 to present: Bitter, unfulfilled indy punk and metal. Preferably by local bands who will never, ever get signed.

Superstition - Stevie Wonder

One of the things that makes this song so great is that, on the studio version, Stevie played all of the instruments. What an amazing musician. :cool:

Two rights make it too wrong
I fought to save us
but the pull was just too strong
You dug your heals in
I beat your heart black & blue
You loved to hate me loving you
Even though you loved me too

You tempted and tormented me
Built me up to fall
Paraded us around for all the world to see
You lured and assured me
Took me from another man
I love to hate me loving you
In as many ways as I can

this is in now way relevant to anything - just wanted to post it

Lol, you're getting ever more off-base. You're talking about a girl who's not only notorious for hardly ever even switching on and actually using her cell phone unless she deigns it to be of importance but who has also been using this (http://imgs.idnes.cz/telefony/A010911_SIEMENS_ME45-ZEPREDU_N.JPG) very basic cell phone handed down to her by a friend for a few months, after years of being the last person on the planet to still use one of these (http://www.itwissen.info/media/lex_pics/small/cc30f03.png). Now the handed-down one has been dropped on the ground one too many times and I needed a new one. Well, almost needed... <.< And the story as to why exactly that pretty, pretty new one is effectively only costing me €40 would be too convoluted and full of my own special logic to tell it here. Not to mention the story that would have made it only €20 but failed due to circumstances outside my control. Thank your deity of choice for that. :p

Did you e-mail it? Hotmail sucks.

Edited for content ACDC.

The intro's titled "O Fortuna."
Indeed it is. A minor oversight while I was posting. I'm a little...disoriented at the moment.

Yeah, it's a big file. Might take a few.

I could post all the lyrics for you, if you like. It's all Latin, though. ;)

Primus' Wynona's big brown beaver pretty much sums up my life.

I dunno how the mods are here , but file sharing / sending Mp3 files is against copyright laws and can be sued by the copyright owner...bit silly to do it on a public forum...
anyway if anyone feels like a mad classical hit get a recording of Shoshtakovich Symphony no 10 ( 2nd movment is a musical portrayal of Stalin...it's pretty hardcore and insane) or Rachmaninov symph no 1 and 2...awesome still loads of fantasic music has come out of russia...

Nice! :cool:
Yeah, we played it in a teacher's room during passing period once back in...March 2005? Something like that. Really creeped people out as they passed through the hall.:cool: :D Then we downloaded the sheet music so I could transcribe into QBasic.

Care to send me the sheet music? I'd love to figure out how to play it on my saxophone.

Metallica - Wherever I May Roam
Evanescence - My Immortal
K's Choice - Believe
Dream Theater - Ytse Jam
Collective Soul - World I Know
SR-71 - In My Mind
3 Doors Down - Here Without You
Las Ketchup - Asereje

There are probably more that would have to be on a soundtrack to my life, but those are the ones that came to mind immediately.

We found it on Google.:p

K's Choice - Believe
Wow, you know K's Choice? I had no idea they were known in the US. But then you've lived all over the place, if I recall correctly.
Do they even still exist? I saw them live ages ago and "Not an addict" still makes it on my "best of" lists every time (I don't really recall any of their other songs, just too long ago).

The Soviet National Anthem

The Communist Internationa'l

and of course JUTE BOX HERO! GOT STARS IN HIS EYES!

I love K's Choice! :) You're right though, they're not very well known here, and most people who have heard of them only know "Not An Addict". I was living in Europe when their second and third albums came out. Their third album, Cocoon Crash, was fairly popular when I was in high school in Belgium (they're a Belgian band, so that might have had something to do with it ;) ).

I haven't heard anything new from them in ages. I wouldn't be surprised if they've broken up, since a friend told me that Sarah Bettens, the lead singer, released a solo album last year.

"I don't want to hear it" - Minor Threat
"And the Same" - Fugazi
"Mediocre Minds" - Bad Religion
"Bored to Death" - Government Issue

"Against the Wind" -- Bob Seger

"Running on Empty" -- Jackson Browne

"Luka" -- Suzanne Vega

"Wasted On the Way" -- Crosby, Stills, and Nash

"Superman" -- Five For Fighting

At the moment, probably "How Soon is Now" by The Smiths.

I was living in Europe when their second and third albums came out. Their third album, Cocoon Crash, was farily popular when I was in high school in Belgium Hmm, now that you mention the name, I'm fairly sure I actually have that CD - buried under a good hour's worth of paperwork to be sorted, so I'm not really going to check right now. But yes, I'm pretty sure. I really should play it again some time. (they're a Belgian band, so that might have had something to do with it ;) ).Might have. :p Yeah, they're probably the biggest thing ever to come out of Belgium besides Pommes Frites. Quite a delicious combination, though.


"Superman" -- Five For Fighting Oooh, wonderful song.

Sonata Arctica - Last Drop Falls
Undertones - Teenage Kicks
Bjork - Hyper-Ballad
Nine Inch Nails - Closer

I'm bored of thinking now. Throw in some more power metal, a little prog, and the odd comedy song, and that should do.

Gollum's Song-Howard Shore and Fran Walsh
My Humps-BEP
Take Me Out- Franz Ferdinand
Hung Up-Madonna
One Way Or Another-Blondie
Very strange combination, isn't it?

A lot of Muse music o_o.

I've been listening to Black Holes and Revelations non-stop for the last couple of days. It's such an amazingly different sound for them. I'm losing my mind here, but in a good way.

1 Love Spreads - The Stone Roses
2. I am the Ressurection - The Stone Roses
3. Interstate Love Song - Stone Temple Pilots
4. Moondance - Van Morrison
5 Si Hei Lwli Mabi ( It's a welsh Lullaby)
6.Rocky road to Dublin ( Rolling Stones and the Chieftans)
got too many fav songs in my life

and, these days, Mad World by Michael Andrews feat. Gary Jules. I'm not really as depressed as to say that the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I ever had :p, but something about the general melancholy and weirdness of that song really strikes a chord at the moment. Also, it's an extraordinarily beautiful song, so it might be just that.Good choice, and agreed.
