4. Falling In Love: “Living In The Past”, Jethro Tull. Okay, I don’t get this one.

Oh, come on. You don’t have to have even heard of Freud to know what this is saying.

Here I go:

1. Opening Credits: “Mr. Wendal”, Arrested Development

2. Childhood: “Sir Duke”, Stevie Wonder. Well, I was a child when this song came out…

3. First Day Of School: “Son Of A Preacher Man”, Dusty Springfield. Far from it. Certainly didn’t apply to my first teacher, as she was a woman.

4. Falling In Love: “Living In The Past”, Jethro Tull. Okay, I don’t get this one.

5. Breaking Up: “Hungry Heart”, Bruce Springsteen. Bullseye.

6. Falling In Love Again: “Teacher”, Jethro Tull. What’s with Tull and love on this list?

7. Breaking Up Again: “Money”, The Flying Lizards. Told ya those women were golddiggers….

8. Prom: “Blue Jean”, David Bowie. Didn’t go to prom, so this one’s a wild card.

9. Birth Of A Child: “Hoedown”, Emerson, Lake, & Palmer. Well, it’s appropriately celebratory, I suppose.

10. Life Sucks: “I Want You To Want Me”, Cheap Trick. Been there.

11. Life’s Okay: “Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite”, The Beatles. Life is a circus.

12. Mental Breakdown: “Once In A Lifetime”, Talking Heads. This is not my beautiful house. This is not my beautiful wife.

13. Driving Theme: “The Warrior”, Scandal featuring Patty Smyth. Hmm. Okay.

14. Flashback: “Groove Is In The Heart”, Dee-Lite. Oh, yeah. Senior year of high school, then freshman year dorm parties.

15. High School Reunion: “Lonesome Tonight”, New Order. Didn’t go because I was 2,500 miles away starting the beta release of Life 2.0. Heard it was a shitty reunion anyway.

16. Commitment Ceremony: “F**k Tha Police”, N.W.A. Well, I would play hip-hop at my wedding, were I to have one…

17. Middle Age: “Changes”, David Bowie. Double bullseye.

18. Last Years: “Your Boy’s Alive”, Ivor Novell/Patrick Doyle (Gosford Park soundtrack). Quite a shock that would be in my last years…

19. Funeral Song: “Lullaby”, Shawn Mullins. Everything’s gonna be all right…

20. End Credits: “Lovely Rita”, The Beatles. They were my first love in rock ‘n’ roll, so it’s appropriate to end my movie with them.

[...] You all aren’t sick of random playlists yet, are you? Because I made the unforgiveable mistake of doing the FRT this week without reading Ms. Lauren first — and man am I regretting it, because she has a fantastic FRT meme up. So I’m gonna borrow it. Apologies for inundating you with my crappy taste in music. This is just too fun to pass up (plus I’ve been studying all day, and if this isn’t a great distraction then I don’t know what is). [...]
