How it works:
- Open your library (iTunes, winamp, media player, iPod)
- Put it on shuffle
- Press play
- For every section, type the song that’s playing
- Next section — press the next button
- Don’t lie and try to pretend you’re cool
Okay, here is the sound track for my life as determined by the iTunes God of Shuffle:
Opening credits:
- Eyes on the Prize by Bruce Springsteen, We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions (Okay, that one's kind of a cool match.)
Waking up:
- Run On by Moby (Oh, well, they can't all be good matches.)
First day at school:
- Viva Las Vegas by ZZ Top (That one gave me a chuckle.)
Falling in love:
- That’s What They Always Say by Chris Rea (Things that make you go, Hmmmm...)
Breaking up:
- Wonder by Natalie Merchant (ditto)
Prom:
- Want To Be With You by the Moody Blues (Okay, that's a good one; I was pretty wildly in love with my prom date.)
Life’s okay:
- Tennessee Stud by Doc Watson (Huh?)
Mental breakdown:
- I Never Loved A Man (The Way I Loved You) by The Commitments (Um, none of my mental breakdowns involved a man -- I can break down all by my own self, thankyouverymuch)
Driving:
- Riki Tiki Tavi by Donovan (Again, huh?)
Flashback:
- Seeker by The Who (Whatever)
Getting back together:
- That’ll Be the Day by Buddy Holly (That's a good one!)
Wedding:
- Nothing Seems to Matter by Bonnie Raitt (Um, no, this one is totally in left field. I guess that's what they mean by random.)
Birth of child:
- Any Colour You Like by Pink Floyd (LOL!)
Final battle:
- Silver Thunderbird by Marc Cohen (Whatever.)
Death scene:
- Carry On, Wayward Son by Kansas (Okay.)
End credits:
- San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers in Your Hair) by Scott McKenzie (WTF?)
