If a movie were made about your life...?

Question

If a movie were made about your life, what would the theme song be, and why?

Answer 1

The "Kill Bill Volume 1" theme that plays as Lucy Liu comes out with her posse. Why? Because I would walk in slow motion just to have people stop and stare as the music plays - LOL.

Answer 2

I'd like to have Beethoven playing, but with a rock/metal theme. Kinda like Trans Siberian Orchestra's "Beethoven's Last Night"... but without the Broadway singing.

As to why, that's the hard part. I sorta feel more in tune with Beethoven and his creativity than other artists. The way he'd do, and redo, and how it wouldn't all come spilling out at once, I don't see the man stuck in the stone, art isn't just an intellectual puzzle... It isn't all about emotion, yet that's what captures people right off. And the anger and work... lots of anger and work.

And of course the rock/metal would be almost a distortion of his work, but also a conversation with it. It isn't just lifted up off the pages, but understood in a different way. I think all art is about communication. Of course I've never heard it Jazzed up, and maybe that would work a bit better.

Answer 3

The leading man would be my one and only, Joejorob. I was told by another Y!A contact that this is what a book on the story of my life should look like (below). I think she is insightful in this. :) I think you should write about your life. You seem to enjoy where you live and I know you've told me you live rurally, but I imagine you living in a cabin in Alaska! I think you should put the story somewhere around the beginning of the century. I know you have a husband and love him a lot (from what I remember of your answers to my couples questions...) Maybe you can make it about a woman who is independent and on her own (hunts and plows, all that good stuff) and how this strong guy comes along and they fall in love despite each others toughness. I can't stand love stories, but I 'feel' this for you! It doesn't need to be sappy, it can be real literary. (Think, ISLAND OF THE BLUE DOLPHINS, meets COLD MOUNTAIN... kind of deal....)

Answer 4

The Dance by Garth Brooks. The song speaks to the joys and sorrows of life. Can't have one without the other at various times in life.

Answer 5

I Did It My Way.

I have always danced to the beat of a different drummer and did things my way. I have had a great life. I followed my dreams where ever they have taken me.

I can honestly say, that I have enjoyed myself. I have visited many different countries. I have met people from many lands. I have friends from every cross section of life and I am only beginning.

Love is a journey. Live it to the fullest.

Teddy Baer Hugs and Magical Wishes to you and yours. May your lives be filled with Teddy Baer Hugs and Magical Moments.

Answer 6

I theme song would be the entrance song of the undertaker. Why? You'll just have to see the movie.

Answer 7

Let go by Frou Frou
This song represents almost everything that is going on in my life at this present time. The song is basically saying instead of drowning in your sorrows let go of all your problems and move forward with life, follow your dreams.

Answer 8

Zippidy Do Da because I came from a dysfunctional family, overcame a lot of adversity, raised a wonderful, self assured child, married a man I respect, have a wonderful, small circle of friends, and find some delight in each and every day.

Answer 9

Irene Wilde - I'm a tad sore about issues, be in places that others don't see - they are un-interesting to the masses yet to me they are the world - my world and those that make me feel most comfortable - It's like almost never being there - we all have dreams, those dreams are human at least. It is fantasy but a strength also - I know I couldn't be like that, yet life seems to be like that anyway...
