Your Life's Movie's Music

[Tyler]

Okay, I was listening to tunes the other day and I started thinking what the music would be like in a movie made about my life. For each section, here's what I can picture accompanying my movie:

Opening Scene;
Ain't That A Kick in the Head - Dean Martin

Early Scenes;
That'll Be the Day - Buddy Holly
The Best is Yet to Come - Frank Sinatra
Roadhouse Blues - The Doors

Middle Scenes;
If I Should Fall From Grace - The Pogues
Keep Fishing - Weezer
Old Time Rock and Roll - Bob Seger
Born on the Bayou - CCR
King of the Road - Dean Martin
Mambo Italiana - Dean Martin
Somebody to Love - Jefferson Airplane
Feelin' Groovy - Simon and Garfunkel

Ending Scenes;
The Pusher - Steppenwolf
Angie - Rolling Stones
A Day in the Life - Beatles
Fool on the Hill - Beatles

Final Scene;
I Have but One Heart - Dean Marting

Closing Credits;
Buddy Holly - Weezer


Of course, I imagine any movie about my life would be directed by Quentin Tarantino and Martin Scorsese, star Kevin Spacey, Ed Norton, Robert Deniro and Joe Pesci. Might get a tad expensive - but I'm worth it damn it!

So what's yours? I tried to use as little Beatles/Stones music as I could, but I had to throw in a couple!

It all depends on how to shoot the film; the above "Comedy" soundtrack is for the lighthearted, two-star, $20m offbeat comedy starring actors from bad television sketch shows.

More lists later; this could be done with individual bands as well: Belle & Sebastian, Styx, or Floater at first thought. Peter Gabriel, maybe, as well.

I'll give some thoughts to the "family drama" and the "tragedy" version of the movies; I'll deal with the action film only later if people still care.

thanx,
Tiassa

My film would be a rather obscure work of a paranoid art; somewhat like Lars Von Triesen's Dancer in the Dark. Of course, that means I would assume a role similar to Bjork....and that is a good thing.
