You expect something better?

Third reiteration of this meme this year:


Open your music player (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, etc). Y'know, if you want to.
Put it on shuffle. Or not. It's up to you. I did.
Press play. It helps. Really.
For every question type the song that's playing. Don't include songs that don't really exist.
When you go to a new question press the next button. This also helps. Really.

Opening Credits: Final Fantasy VI -- Ending Theme

Apparently I wake up in a happy world where everything is resolved.

Waking Up: Final Fantasy VII -- Forested Temple

No comment.

Falling in Love: The Beatles -- Yesterday

No fucking comment.

Fight Scene: The Beatles -- What Goes On

Torn apart, treated unkind, I pick a fight. I guess.

Breaking Up: Symphony X -- The Walls of Babylon

Betrayal. Etc.

Getting Back Together: Lunar Silver Story -- Magical Weapon Nash

How thoroughly inappropriate. Apparently I become a badass mage to get back together.

Secret Love: Rush -- Out of the Cradle

Self-indulgence into a surge of energy on the journey. Heh, right.

Life's Okay: Witch Hunter Robin OSS -- Discord

Life being okay is now life being pensive.

Mental Breakdown: Rocky Horror Picture Show -- Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me

Ok. This is just ridiculous.

Driving Flashback: Rush -- Ghost of A Chance

Driving down the freeway, reflecting, speculating. What is there, what should be, what was, what can be.

I don't believe in destiny
Or the guiding hand of fate
I don't believe in forever
Or love as a mystical state
I don't believe in the stars or the planets
Or angels watching from above
But I believe there's a ghost of a chance
We can find someone to love
And make it last...

Partying: Soundgarden -- The Day I Tried To Live

Getting blasted out of my head trying to have fun, and...yeeeeah.

Happy Dance: The Four Tops -- Keeper of the Castle

...well, it's funky.

Regretting: Wendy Carlos -- Titan

Out in weird space and floating along.

Long Night Alone: Jack Bruce -- Can You Follow?

Hey, can you follow
Now that the trace is fainter in the sand
Try turning your face to the wall

Can you still read me
Now that the chase is wilder in your hand
Try losing your place in the sun

All the praises of the dream
Turned to tangles in the trees
All yesterday's fine chariots
Turned to buses in the street

Can you still hear me
Now that the songs are moving into night
Try sleeping with the dancers in your room

Final Battle: Iron Maiden -- Moonchild

No comment, but suitably orchestrated and bombastic.

Death Scene: Jack Bruce -- Smiles and Grins

Bluesy instrumental. Swordfights. Gunfights. Falling down at the end.

Credits: The Beatles -- Real Love

A sappy recording off a long-dead man.

Which more often than not makes me cry.

Cue telecine. Roll credits.
