Rules:

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....
OPENING CREDITS
Gunyo-eh Bihaenggi, by The Witches (upbeat, but chill, Korean ska-- I can totally see this being good opening music for my kind of movie)
WAKING UP
Problems Posing as Solutions, by McClusky (well, that is waking up in a nutshell)
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
The Apostle in Triumph, by Opeth (okay… apparently I was a creepier kid than I'd thought)
FALLING IN LOVE
World War None, by Frank Sinatra (yeeeeah. when I woo I don't mess around-- weapons-grade crooning)
FIGHT SONG
Maiden in the Mor, by Qntal ("She's just standing there, in that pretty white dress. How much of a threat could she be?" Slow-motion slayage ensues)
BREAKING UP
Cuculetsu, by Bumcello vs Taraf De Haidouks (techno remix of gypsy chanting? yup, that sounds like most of my breakups)
PROM
Man with no Country, by Flogging Molly (asrhosyn_du said, we threw a nerd party in lieu of our prom, and it was awesome. Still, Flogging Molly++)
LIFE
Of Science, from Strauss' Also Sphrach Zarathust (it's not the bit from 2001, but still… SCIENCE! I approve).
MENTAL BREAKDOWN
Kohoutek, by R.E.M. (wow, I have the wussiest breakdowns… I guess with some artsy camera angles…. I'm thinking cepia)
DRIVING
Perfume, by Sparks (wish it had been "Let The Monkey Drive", but hey, I likes me some Sparks)
FLASHBACK
Two Babies in the Dark, by Bad Religion (yeeps…. my childhood was not that traumatic)
WEDDING
Humpty Dumpty, by Aimee Mann (I'm just going to assume that this one applies to the wedding I already had...)
BIRTH OF CHILD
From Safety to Where?, by Joy Division (if Joy Division playing at your birth isn't an ill portent, I don't know what is. Still, creepily appropriate titles ftw)
FINAL BATTLE
Alpha Centauri, by Hallucinogen (Ok, I can get behind this. Epic Matrix-esque techno battle!)
DEATH SCENE
Overture in C in Memorariam, by Arthur Sullivan (Well played, shuffle)
FUNERAL SONG
Smokey's Theme, by Dr. Steel (Seriously, listen. Don't think I wouldn't use this at my funeral. There would be costumed henchpeople involved.)
END CREDITS
Glass, by Joy Division (hmm… 12k+ tracks in my collection, which includes one Joy Division album. I take back the nice things I said about shuffle)

Date: 2011-07-09 06:03 pm (UTC)"Athene," Hercules and Love Affair (okay, that's just obscenely appropriate)
WAKING UP
"Ghazal (Love Song)," Tangerine Dream (kind of? maybe? more likely to make me fall back asleep)
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
"Gottinne minne," Qntal (apparently I go to St. Luminous Mission High)
FALLING IN LOVE
"All That You'll Be," Emma Bunton (okay, MAJOR WIN FOR SHUFFLE!)
FIGHT SONG
"Love Voodoo," Duran Duran (... No Just No)
BREAKING UP
"St. Stephen," Grateful Dead (I can actually kind of see this, over a "what we're doing next" montage)
PROM
"Kiew Mission," Tangerine Dream (Jesus, I really did go to St. Luminous)
LIFE
"Foggy Dew," Wild Mountain Thyme (at first I thought this was horribly inappropriate, but the more I think about it as a metaphor ... but this should have been the next song)
MENTAL BREAKDOWN
"Fallen Ascent," Final Fantasy IV: Echoes of Betrayal, Light of Redemption (a slow, brooding, menacing track with unsettling background noises -- yeah shuffle!)
DRIVING
"Temptation," Joan Armatrading (lyrics not relevant, but boy is this a driving-away-hopefully 80's-montage song!)
FLASHBACK
"Some Enchanted Evening," Frank Sinatra (oh for @$@! sake)
WEDDING
"Lifting Shadows of a Dream," Dream Theater (... no comment)
BIRTH OF CHILD
"Get 'Em Out By Friday," Genesis (so my kid will be ... short?)
FINAL BATTLE
"Pencil Rain," They Might Be Giants (ironic slow motion fighting!)
DEATH SCENE
"Party Pit," The Hold Steady (that's not so terribly inappropriate for the hipster romantic comedy this is turning out to be)
FUNERAL SONG
"That's My Impression," Pet Shop Boys (this works WELL lyrically if I'm not the main character, but the sound ... just no)
END CREDITS
"Here Comes the Flood," Peter Gabriel (C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER! There goes our ironic-attitude-about-life's-vicissitudes cred!)
You asked for it
