If you had theme music...
If life truly mimicked Art, instead of the poor standard of the other way round and when a friend, enemy or elder said something awesome and nature sang in tune music befitting their personality what would yours be? Naturally you could use any real songs, any soundtracks of movies and video games or anything you've written yourself. It would help if it had a youtube link though.
(A good reference system for the lazy? Here.) Mine? Or... Yours? |

I would have Joe Hisaishi, Tan Dun, Vincent Persichetti, Ennio Morricone, and Daft Punk all actively compose music to my life.

WoF: That first one just sounds like the theme song to Cheers. You're not hiding a secret case of alcoholism from us, are you?
|
Killer Queen
What? |
Lindsey Buckingham's Time Bomb Town
Only released on the Back to the Future soundtrack. I'll bet nobody actually remembers where this song was played in the movie. Yes..... I've got some strange information I keep it to myself I've got a bad complication I can't think of nothing else There must be about a million Single ways to go down 'Cause I'm a lonely stranger In this Time Bomb Town. This is NOT the Back to the Future theme song, nor is it Huey Lewis. WAY too cliche. |
Something both creepy and feminine...like me!
|
If I had theme music it would probably be White Cliffs of Dover or Under Pressure.

I would give my fucking wife to have this play whenever I go to work and back. |

I call it. Yes, I do. |
Some of you have two entries... so okay. I wasn't going to but put this one on my resume as well.
I've selected Mr. Mister's Broken Wings. This song fits me in so many more ways than I can even begin to detail; but highlighting the points of exactly what I identify with in this song/video I think will make it more relevant. Baby, Don't Understand Why we can't just hold on To Each Other's Hands Take These Broken Wings And Learn to Fly Again... Learn to Live So Free When we Hear The Voices Sing The Book of Love will open up And Let us in... The lyrics declare that this is clearly a love song, and I am a terrible romantic at heart... but the video tells a parallel tale and makes the longing for "love" much more distant than the tale that is being told through metaphor. The two primary metaphoric elements in the story are the Ford Thunderbird and The Hawk. Everything he is doing in the video spells me out to a tee- trying to get out and away in an attempt to leave convention and society behind (and in both our cases using an old car for our escape) In his abandonment no matter where he goes he is watched by The Hawk; the one who can 'fly naturally' (ie without 'Broken Wings') and accompanies him, watching him and his journey... but staying at a relative safe distance as not to intrude nor interfere in what he does; YET, he knows the hawk is there. Seemingly, no matter how far he goes in an attempt to 'get away' he encounters elements of society (the oil derrick) and also realizes his apparent helplessness at what the oil derrick symbolizes- it's the component of what fuels him and something that can never be escaped nor left behind. SO many times I, myself, would throw away the maps and all caution to the wind and attempt to "find myself"... only ending up right where I started... by trying to escape the conventional yet through using conventional methods. Right up at the end, he's out of water, and the hood's up on the Thunderbird supposedly far removed from anyplace; solitary, with only his Broken Wings (the Thunderbird) and The Hawk (his Guide); to which he is giving only passing acknowledgment to, watching the events unfold. It could be argued as to what the Hawk actually symbolizes given 'coloration' of individual interpretation and prior systems of 'belief', but I see the Hawk as 'The Guide,' not stepping in to interfere but working behind the scenes in his own 'mystical' ways; making a an ultimate point out of the turn of all events in the end; the point being, he IS fine and life will go on... perhaps with more gained insight. I won't pick my interpretation apart really any more than I have already because it should be evident through the way I've made the 'interpretation' how I relate. Just enjoy the video Dammit. ;) |
This speaks for itself. I need to download the Neverhood OST again |
mine would be, of course, 'ive got a brand new combine harvester' bollocks.
also the theme tune to steptoe & son for when i walk. |
I fucking love Steptoe and Son. Harry H. Corbett was great.
|
i walk like the bastard! it aint funny!
almost got a job selling scrap as well, i mean come on! thats not coincidence! anyway, is he dead now? i think the actor who played his son is still alive. |
He was the son. I think Wilfred What's-His-Name (who was in an "On the Buses" film) is dead, though.

Mime would be misery business by Paramore.
