Me: The Soundtrack

[apolla]

Because some of the best memes are nicked from joycecohen and because it was forty years ago today that the Beatles taught the US to play.



This list is based heavily on the playlist on the media player I'm listening to now. It does not include everything I love and is also a very loose description, sometimes based in titles and sometimes in lyrical or thematic content. Basically: don't take this half as seriously as I am!

Opening credits: Tomorrow Never Knows - The Beatles OR The Rocker - Thin Lizzy.
Waking up: I'm Only Sleeping - The Beatles
Average day: Watching the Wheels - John Lennon
First date: Out On The Tiles - Led Zeppelin
Falling in love: Ain't That A Kick In the Head- Dean Martin
Love scene: Makin' Whoopee - Peggy Lee or Frank Sinatra. Surely!
Fight scene: Another One Bites the Dust- Queen
Breaking up: One For My Baby - Frank Sinatra OR With Love - Thin Lizzy OR It's Over - Roy Orbison.
Getting back together: Wait - The Beatles
Secret love: I've Got You Under My Skin - Frank Sinatra.
Life's okay: The Song Remains the Same - Led Zeppelin
Mental breakdown: Tales of Brave Ulysses - Cream
Driving: The Boys Are Back In Town - Thin Lizzy
Learning a lesson: These Are The Days Of Our Lives - Queen
Deep thought: Wild is the Wind - David Bowie
Flashback: California Dreamin - The Mamas and the Papas. Or my own version ;)
Partying: Golden Years - David Bowie
Happy dance: I Believe In A Thing Called Love - The Darkness
Regretting: Willow Weep For Me - Frank Sinatra. Some of the choices here are so based on the fact I'm listening to Only The Lonely by Sinatra right now.
Long night alone: Dream - Dean Martin or Frank Sinatra, they both do it well. Although I think my soundtrack would have to err on the side of bellissimo Dino.
Death scene: Art of Dying or All Things Must Pass, both George Harrison.
Closing credits: Sally Simpson - The Who

Bear in mind I'll probably change my mind on all of these a trillion times. I can't just have one answer.
