Tagged again! Curses!!


IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD YOUR 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 you're cool..

Note to readers: Jack and I both use iTunes, and I'll bet you can tell which songs belong to whom. =)


Opening Credits:
"59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)"—Simon & Garfunkel

Waking Up:
"Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?"—Bryan Adams

First Day At School:
"Woke Up This Morning"—A3 (from The Sopranos soundtrack; Katherine used to listen to this song in college while walking to math class, so I think it's funny that it turned up for school!)

Falling In Love:
"In ruhig fliessender Bewegung," movement III from Sinfonia—Pierre Boulez (New Swingle Singers with Boulez conducting)

Breaking Up:
Movement IV of Piano Quartet no. 2 in G minor—Gabriel Fauré (Ax. Stern, Laredo, and Ma recording)

Prom:
"Kyrie" from Missa Pange Lingua—Josquin (this isn't exactly something to dance to and would make for a very nerdy prom)

Life's OK:
"Bye Bye Bye"—*NSYNC (I believe this was Nicole's "Life's OK" contribution to the Bridesmaid Mix CD)

Mental Breakdown:
"Clint Meets Topov"—No Strings Attached (a bluegrass group from Blacksburg, lots of hammered duclimer and such)

Driving:
"In My Life"—The Beatles

Flashback:
"At the Zoo"—Simon & Garfunkel

Getting Back Together:
"To Make You Feel My Love"—Billy Joel

Wedding:
"The Dangling Conversation"—Simon & Garfunkel

Birth of Child:
"The Sound of Silence"—Simon & Garfunkel (Holy Simon & Garfunkel, Batman!)

Final Battle:
"Sample in a Jar"—Trey Anastasio

Death Scene:
"Baby Grand"—Ray Charles and Billy Joel

Funeral Song:
"Still Crazy After All These Years"—Simon & Garfunkel (I swear, we don't have that much of their stuff; iTunes is just trying to be funny. It is good music, though.)

End Credits:
"Prometheus"—Franz Schubert (HOW ironic... my thesis topic song)


I learned that iTunes skips podcasts when it shuffles. That's good to know for the future. I also learned that we have a weird mix of stuff, but I already knew that. My iPod would be an even weirder mix.

Now tagging Don, Nicole, and Lauren.
