let it roll right off your shoulders
It's a beautiful day here in the sunny Northern Rivers region, and I am sitting inside sneezing sullenly all over my laptop in the hope that I can finish this stupid EBM assignment before my immune system completely gives out.
It's also a beautiful day to be in Sydney for Supanova, I'm sure. SIGH.

Ooh, a question for you all: are there any songs that spark particular emotions in you because of their use in TV shows or movies? I can only think of a couple of examples off the top of my head: Michelle Branch's 'Goodbye To You' (heartbreaking) and Dire Straits' 'Brothers in Arms' (bittersweetamazing) because of their use in Buffy and West Wing respectively, and I rewatched Meet the Robinsons last night (IT GETS BETTER EVERY TIME I WATCH IT. MAGICALLY. BEST ANIMATED FILM TO EVER EXIST Y/N?) and thus have Rob Thomas' 'Little Wonders' on repeat as the ultimate inspirational work-hard-and-follow-your-dreams song.
(I would show you the Little Wonders scene but it's epically spoilery for the film and if you haven't seen Meet the Robinsons (I am not judging.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ryokophoenix had to talk about it nonstop for months before I watched it. but you SHOULD WATCH IT.) then you really, really don't want to be spoilered.)
Tell me your songs with media-generated emotional associations! Bonus points for YouTube evidence.

Also, "I Will Follow You Into the Dark" was on a lot of R/S fanmixes back when HP was going on, so 75% of my emotional reaction to that song stems from its relationship to the pairing.
