What's your theme song?

Mine changes frequently. Right now it's Love is a Stranger by Eurythmics. Last week it was A Million Miles Away by the Plimsouls.

What's yours? Is it constant, or does yours change?

:hi:

...that sums it up nicely:

I'm not perfect
No I'm not.
I'm not perfect
But I've got what I've got.
I do my very best
Do my very best
Do my very best each day.
But I'm not perfect
And I hope you like me this way.

:D

I think we could all benefit from a theme song like that... :hi:

:evilgrin:



Although, it sometimes changes to "I Fought the Law" or "The Authority Song."

:P Very nice! :hi:

Yes, it's true
I want that apple, just like William Tell
No more floor gazing, no more head down the well
I'm feeling extrovert
I should be shaking the stars instead of hugging the dirt

I swear!
I'm really burning, fit to boil up the sea
Human volcano at a zillion degrees
I'm feeling extrovert
Instead of quiet and shy I'm really dying to flirt

I feel like someone else
Yes I do, yes I do, yes I do
I feel like someone else
I feel new, not so blue
I feel
Extrovert

No hidden message, nothing political
You needn't listen, I just wanted to show
I'm feeling extrovert
I am the lion who's roaring not the mouse that gets hurt

I feel like someone else
Yes I do, yes I do, yes I do
I feel like someone else
I feel new, not so blue
I feel

My trumpet plays for you
I'm gonna blow it now

Extrovert

And I love Extrovert! :hi:

and then you play it to death!!

:rofl:

:hi: And a great theme song to have, too....

:bounce:

:rofl: I love Top Cat... TC!!!

Right now, it's 'Rusty Cage' by Soundgarden

Other themesongs have included "Someone Keeps Moving My Chair" by They Might Be Giants and "Know Your Enemy" by RATM.


Also, everything by the Talking Heads.

Take Me To The River was my theme song a few weeks ago... :P

At least at this moment

One of my favorites! :hi:

Frank said it best.....

:*

pretty much sums it up for just about everyone I suppose.

:hi:

The song that says it all.

:hi:

:hi:

:hi:

I knew there was a reason I liked you, kiddo.....

(I've actually been listening to thier first (only?) album the past few days after work.)

:hi:

...because it's MY theme song! ;)

:hug: :P

Hummer and The Amazing Johnathan have used it as well. Damn good stuff with an addictive groove and expert scratching.

:hi:

Perfect ironic, despondent "What the FUCK is the world trying to do to me NOW??" song. A (presumably young) guy trying his damnedest not to become yet another "cog in the machine"--and he's losing the battle nonetheless.

I decline
To walk the line
They tell me that I'm lazy
Wordly wise
I realize
That everybody's crazy
A woman's voice reminds me
To serve and not to speak
Am I myself or just another freak

Don't you know
There's fire in the hole
And nothing left to burn
I'd like to run out now
There's nowhere left to turn

With a cough
I shake it off
And work around my yellow stripe
Should I hide
And eat my pride
Or wait until it's good and ripe
My life is boiling over
It's happened once before
I wish someone would open up the door

Don't you know
There's fire in the hole
And nothing left to burn
I'd like to run out now
There's nowhere left to turn

:hug: There are a few songs by the Cure that I use for those moods.... but I totally understand.

But those people are wrong, I say! Cynicism can be very deep! :D

:hug:

WEEZER LYRICS

"Perfect Situation"

What's the deal with my brain?
Why am I so obviously insane?
In a perfect situation
I let love down the drain.
There's the pitch, slow and straight.
All I have to do is swing
and I'm a hero, but I'm a zero.

Hungry nights, once again
Now it's getting unbelievable.
'Cause I could not have it better,
But I just can't get no play
From the girls, all around
As they search the night for someone to hold onto.
And I just pass through...

Singing...
Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
Singing...
Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.

Get your hands off the girl,
Can't you see that she belongs to me?
And I don't appreciate this excess company.
Though I can't satisfy all the needs she has
And so she starts to wander...
Can you blame her?

Singing...
Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
Singing...
Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.

Tell me there's a logic out there.
Leading me to better prepare
For the day that something really special might come.
Tell me there's some hope for me.
I don't wanna be lonely
For the rest of my days on the earth.
Oh..!!



Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
Singing...
Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
Singing...
Ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

:hug: ---a great big :hug:. Wow. :(

your a great hugger

:D

not that *I* would choose this for you, but I get the feeling if you had to choose one for yourself it would be "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry."

You are correct.

Difference is, I don't look like Elvis Presley.

Not even like Elvis Costello.

:(

Meh. I've... learned to live with my condition.

Ooh-OO-OO-OO!"

:woohoo:

by tears for fears, but I enjoy the Michael Andrews version, a lot more.

Today it's Counting Crows "American Girls."

but mine changes!

:hug: :hug: :hug: x 1,000

I'm a Barbie Girl, In the Barbie World
Life in plastic...it's fantastic
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere
Imagination, Life is your creation
C'mon Barbie, let's go party...




As a middle-aged semi-respected gay man...it fits me to a tee! :)

:yoiks:

mood...but put that little ditty on-- and I'm a happy camper.

It is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo inane it's faaabu-frikking-lucious

"Goodbye to You" by Scandal. I'm not sad anymore, I'm just really pissed off :)

RIP Desmond.

A couple weeks ago it was "Devil's Dance Floor" by Flogging Molly, and before that it was "O Fortuna" by Carl Orff. I haven't found the next one yet.

Now your messing with... a SON OF A BITCH nowyourmessingwithasonofabitch
Now your messing with... a SON OF A BITCH nowyourmessingwithasonofabitch

A very happy, upbeat song. :sarcasm:

*****
Some say the end is near.
Some say well see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will.
I sure could use a vacation from this

Bull-shit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks here in this hopeless fucking hole we call L.A.
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any fucking time. any fucking day.
Learn to swim, Ill see you down in arizona bay.

Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car.
Its a bull-shit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks here in this hopeless fucking hole we call L.A.
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any fucking time. any fucking day.
Learn to swim, Ill see you down in arizona bay.

Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

And Some say the end is near.
Some say well see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will cuz
I sure could use a vacation from this

Silly shit, stupid shit, Silly shit

One great big festering neon distraction,
Ive a suggestion to keep you all occupied.

Learn to swim.

Moms gonna fix it all soon.
Moms comin round to put it back the way it ought to be.

Learn to swim.

Fuck L. Ron Hubbard and
Fuck all his clones.
Fuck all those gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes.

Learn to swim.

Fuck retro anything.
Fuck your tattoos.
Fuck all you junkies and
Fuck your short memory.

Learn to swim.

Fuck smiley glad-hands
With hidden agendas.
Fuck these dysfunctional,
Insecure actresses.

Learn to swim.

Cuz I'm praying for rain
I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way.
I wanna watch it all go down.
Mom please flush it all away.
I wanna watch it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.

Time to bring it down again.
Dont just call me pessimist.
Try and read between the lines.
I cant imagine why you wouldnt
Welcome any change, my friend.

I wanna see it all come down.
Get down. Suck it down. Flush it down.

That's always been one of my favorite lines from any song.

Fits LA (several other cities too) to a T.

it's been "Unwritten" by Natasha Beddingfield. But sometimes it's "I Go To Extremes" by Billy Joel.

...Bitch by Meredith Brooks

'...I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way...'

Rah-dooh dah doot'n day-aw!

"I'd Better Be Quiet Now" by Elliot Smith and "50 Foot Queenie" by PJ Harvey.

Dissonance is the theme of the evening, and spreads out behind me.

Woooooooooo...

:woohoo:

Gets me in the mood for work at the bar. B-)

From the Eternal Arcadia OST!!

Yutaka Minobe & Takayuki Maeda : Bombardment

so why don't you kill me?

:hug: You are so NOT a loser.... Pick another theme song! :loveya:

...Kiss :*

;)

:* :loveya:

:hi:

:hug:

:loveya:

(Been my theme for awhile now...) :)

I don't get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls
Brought me here

And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday
And I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

What if I'd been born fifty years before you
In a house on a street where you lived?
Maybe I'd be outside as you passed on your bike
Would I know?

And in a white sea of eyes
I see one pair that I recognize
And I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you

Next door there's an old man who lived to his nineties
And one day passed away in his sleep
And his wife; she stayed for a couple of days
And passed away

I'm sorry, I know that's a strange way to tell you that I know we belong
That I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

the past few weeks it's been 'I know You're Out There Somewhere' by Moody Blues

Hello.
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?

Come on, now.
I hear youre feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.

Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I cant explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

Ok.
Just a little pinprick.
Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up?
I do believe its working. good.
Thatll keep you going for the show.
Come on its time to go.

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

today....

Sometimes it's the Beatles' Eight Days a Week

Sometimes it's Beethoven's Ode to Joy

Sometimes it's the ominous Darth Vader theme from Star Wars

Sometimes it's The Grateful Dead's Ripple




I've outgrown my Ennui.......

:evilgrin:

My theme song since '84
