Soundtrack My Life! (a meme)

Inspired by [livejournal.com profile] villainny, made up by [livejournal.com profile] schiarire, hosted here.

If you were soundtracking my life, what kind of musical accompaniment would you suggest?

To request a soundtrack: comment below with your name, under the appropriate heading, and then link to your comment in your LJ so that your friends can come and suggest things. (Please PUT YOUR LJ NAME AS THE SUBJECT OF YOUR COMMENT, for ease of browsing the meme.)

To suggest songs: find people you know and give them your suggestions! Links to uploaded tracks are welcome but not compulsory.

Feel free to be as structured as you please: suggest the credits song, the Epic Love Story song, or the song for that uplifting moment at the film's emotional climax. Or just throw in anything that you think suits that person's life.

PIMP FAR, PIMP WIDE.

DISCLAIMER: Too much musical training + synaesthesia means a lot of my choices make no sense. (I am going to end up writing this everywhere.)

"Grow Up And Blow Away" (you know the one) makes me think of you even without the story; I think I thought of you a little before it! It makes good montage music.

"Calendar Girl," by Stars.

"La Valse d'Amelie," from the movie of the same name, the Yann Tiersen instrumental.

"Tremendous Brunettes," by Mike Doughty.

I have been waiting and waiting for you to comment because you're pretty much the ONLY person that I had a song all lined up for, and that song is Paul Anka's cover of 'Wonderwall'. Also: 'Ridiculous Thoughts' by The Cranberries, and 'She Called Up' by Crowded House.

I have soundtracked us so many times that I don't know what to say here anymore! I suspect your soundtrack would have a lot of Amelie and the occasional Mika number, but here:

Say Yes, the soundtrack edition (http://www.box.net/shared/6x6zmxmgw4).
