To clarify: do we choose what song we want for each category, or is it the song that happens to be playing at that moment?

The song that happens to play. That's why you put your playlist on 'shuffle'. ^.^

Hit 'Em High - B-Real, Busta Rhymes, Coolio

...and yes, that is from the Space Jam soundtrack. XD


First Date:

"Track 16" from Cowboy Bepop soundtrack

I am... too lazy to type in the names for that poor CD, apparently. O_o


Falling In Love:

"I Just Can't Wait To Be King" - Lion King soundtrack

Hehee, what a funny song! XD


Love Scene:

"I'd Do Anything" - Simple Plan

Oh dear...

Haha, I'm a crazy cat lover, apparently? :P


Life's Okay:

"Bolero"

It's some weird classical song... don't worry.


Mental Breakdown:

"Soft" by The Swing Sessions... though I seriously doubt that's the artist, because it doesn't make sense. But itunes can be stupid with obscure music, lol. Anyway, according to this, I will have a jamming mental breakdown. ;)


Driving:

"Maggie May" by Rod Stewart.

Oy... good driving music!


Learning A Lesson:

"Set Adrift on Memory Bliss" by the Backstreet Boys.

Well... I guess memories implies learning through a lesson? O_o

Well, I did download their album because it reminded me of my parents and my earlier days...

Perfect flashback scene! Oooooo... The Beatles in white suits walking down a staircase? Yum!


Happy Dance:

"When You Were Young" by Astrid Swan from Fletchings! :D

Not really a happy dance though...

But... who can regret Chopin???


Long Night Alone:

"Wheels in Motion" from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory soundtrack.

Lots of soundtracks tonight. O_o


Final Battle:

"Wild Asses" from The Carnival of Animals by Camille Saint-Saëns.

I... um... wonder what my epic battle will be...?


Death Scene:

"Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" by The Temptations.

Oh, come ON. I'm not Sadie! :P


Closing Credits:

"12 Inches of Snow" by Snow.

I... think this is a free itunes download that I will probably delete, lol. It's... yeah. XD



Mmmm... maybe I'll try again? :P
