Waking Up: Slow The Flow - Ugly Duckling
Falling in Love: Secret Smile - Semisonic
Fight Scene: Sabotage - Beastie Boys
Breaking Up: Song For The Dumped - Ben Folds Five
Getting Back Together: Brighter Than Sunshine - Aqualung
Life's OK: Me, Myself and I - De La Soul
Mental Breakdown: Terrorital Pissings - Nirvana
Partying: Right Here Right Now - Fatboy Slim
Long Night Alone: Why Does My Heart Feel So Sad - Moby
Final Battle: Fight The Power - Public Enemy
Death Scene: Floaty - Foo Fighters

Opening Credits:Roadrunner--modern lovers
Waking Up: blue condition--cream
Falling in Love: Mahgeeta--My Morning Jacket
Fight Scene: Narc (remix version)--Interpol
Breaking Up: Since I've Been Loving You--Led Zep
Getting Back Together: These Days-Nico
Life's OK: Elevator Music--Beck
Mental Breakdown:Third movement of Barber's cello concerto (if i had a second one, it'd be girl anachronism by the dresden dolls)
Partying: Get off of my cloud--the stones
Long Night Alone: ballad of a thin man--bob dylan
Final Battle: House of the Rising Sun--The Animals
Death Scene: Across the Universe--the Beatles (someone used that already but whatever...)
End Credits: I'm Waiting For The Man--Velvet Underground
* Sex Scene:Spoonful--Howlin' Wolf (or maybe the cream cover?)
A moment of clarity would be the twin guitar climax of Pink Floyd's Echoes. If I had a rampage, it'd be to Streetlight Manifesto's Here's To Life. Also I think Layla and London Calling would be in there somewhere, as well as something by aa kismet and the styrenes. |

As a writer/editor, my rule is: If there ain't a word for it, make one up! And you should know that, being a participant in the fwfr game "Jargling"! It's a thesauratic (yes, I made that up) hoot!

Tough one, at first I went for obvious tracks that talked or rather sung you through the scene, so Nilsson's "Gotta Get Up" for Waking Up, Napoleon XIV's "They're Coming To Take Me Away" for Mental Breakdown etc.
I then thought, be less literal and go for mood tracks and ended up copying existing soundtracks and over using certain groups.
So finally decided on a mix of mood and literal tracks, old and new. known and unknown
Opening Credits: The Light Of Experience - Gheorghe Zamfir
Waking Up: Bad To The Bone - George Thorogood
Falling in Love: Wicked Game - Chris Isaac
Fight Scene: Rock And Roll - Led Zep
Breaking Up: Go - Gigliola Cinquetti
Getting Back Together: You Shook Me All Night Long - AC DC
Life's OK: Don't Worry, Be Happy - Bobby McFerrin
Mental Breakdown: Ego, The Living Planet - Monster Magnet
Partying: Ballroom Blitz - The Sweet
Long Night Alone: Me, Myself, I - Joan Armatrading
Final Battle: Melt - Monster Magnet
Death Scene: If You Go Away - Shirley Bassey
End Credits: Everybody Knows - Leonard Cohen
Also, before the Final Battle, I'd have
Calm Before The Storm: Laguna Sunrise - Black Sabbath
Damn, that was fun. Nice one Mampers  |

Truly excellent selection, Wheelz! I know what you mean about "completely different list" tomorrow," but that's what makes it fun. Right off the top of your head can inspire some great combos!
In particular, I love "Back Door" for "Life's OK" and "I Can't Make You Love Me" for "Long Night Alone." That second would also make a fantastic "Breaking Up" classic!
Big fun! Keep it goin', kids! More, more, more!!!!!
Thanks for the compliment redPen!
If you liked those, I urge you to seek out any of the songs on my list you aren't already familiar with; I stuck a few pretty obscure selections in there (Elvis Brothers, Beat Farmers). I haven't had lots of time to do so, but I plan to find the selections of others that I don't know... Can't wait to find out what a song called "Cut Your Hair" sounds like!
What a great way to discover some new music!!
Well Cut Your Hair is a classic early American indie song, which smacks of slackerness (dont know if that was a word). It was done by a band called Pavement. I thought it was perfect for the beginning of my movie, that I wanted to use it in my student movie about two slackers, but alas I never got around of making that movie.
Here is a link to a music video they did.
