Sometimes you hear a song and say to yourself, "That's my theme song?" You can have more than one.
What is yours? My new one is John Gorka's Always with the refrain "I'll always be lonely." The "Kennedys "Life is Large." works too. Nobody ever said that theme songs or people have to be consistant. I gotta bunch, my main 2 being Robert Palmer's "Hyperactive" ;)� and the Nields' "Easy People." :):):) "I Will Always Be Lonely" was the one John Gorka song I kept for my FRFF 2003 compilation.� It just resonates.
I've had a lot of theme songs - the most recent ones being "Expectations" by Stephen Fearing and "Water Moves Me" by Katherine Wheatley. But ever since I heard it for the first time, my newest one is "That'd Be Alright" by Alan Jackson. :)
I don't know if it really suits me now, but for quite a while I really connected with "Caroline Dreams" by The Nields.� I've spent too much time being depressed and feeling like I'm just sleeping through my life. And as a happy newlywed type person, I gotta go with "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds. It appeals to the sappy part of me that I don't like to admit that I have.

Although that was back in college and a while after. Now I need a new one. Quarterlife crisis almost subsiding...I think I might go with Tom Petty's "The Waiting". On a side note, in all my relationships I've never had an "our song" with anyone. But my boy and I have George Harrisons "I Got My Mind Set On You". If we marry it'll be in interesting first song to try to dance to... You could always hire a band to play that song at a slow tempo. Of course, I'll always think of it as "This Song is Just 6 Words Long" Funny...I mention this to a non-fruhead about And She Was being my song back in college and he says "So you identify with getting high behind the YooHoo factory?" Wha???? Apparently this was their inspriration for the song???? I'm�going to have scars�from this I can tell!
i thought it was about some hippie chick they knew in baltimore...

Mine would be Talking Heads "Psycho Killer" cuz the bassline makes me nuts, or maybe Devo's "Jocko Homo". Or maybe Tea Party's cover of "Paint it Black" Bah, I can't choose! No, it would definitely be "If I were a Rich Man" from Fiddler on the Roof. Definitely

"whore" by kittie "I'm not an angry girl" -Ani nightrider theme "fuck you and your cat" -Goldfinger "its not a habit its cool I feel alive if you don't have it you're on the other side. I'm not an adict maybe thats a lie" -don't remember the name of the artist. my co-workers call my music choices "slit your wrists music" and I'd have to agree.
"its not a habit its cool I feel alive if you don't have it you're on the other side. I'm not an adict maybe thats a lie" -don't remember the name of the artist.
it's k's choice. WONDERFUL band from belgium. It would be interesting to compare answers from 1,5,10,15, 20 and up years ago. My answers depend on how I interpret the question: How I try to live my life: James Taylor- "Shower the people you love with love" How I feel my work life is going right now: Jim Croce- "Workin' at the Carwash Blues"� How I feel as I write this: Beatles- "I'm only Sleeping" How I feel most of the time: Stevie Ray Vaughan- "Walkin' the Tightrope"

Dar Williams comes to mind - particularly You're aging well and After All. Here are another 2 theme songs: Jen Cass - Daedalus Where are the people that I willingly call friends Iris Dement�- My Life When I look at this world, I feel so small. But I gave joy to my mother. My life, it's half the way travelled, Oh yeah. Looking at these songs it really doesn't come as a surprise that I've turned into this super folkie ...

i have no freakin' idea what my theme tune would be. i've yet to find a song that i really can relate to. :P though if i had to choose, it would be something by BNL probably. like 'enid' or 'brian wilson'. yup. :)

In high school, it was Radiohead's "Creep," but probably Dar Williams, "Spring Street" now. Sometimes Ryan Adams, "Come Pick Me Up."

I dont really think i HAVE a personal theme song... thats rather lame,if you ask me [its lame that i dont have one,i mean^_^;;] I'd say maybe... As far as how i try to live my life,this is what i like to say to people:::"Which Way Are You Goin' " by Jim Croce How i really DO live my life: Someone Elses Star - Bryan White How I'd like to be living my life: "God Gave me You" - Bryan White [again.. i know] and my personal motto i stole from Jonathan Larson^_^ "No Day But Today" as well as "Let he among us without sin be the first to condemn! La Vie Boheme!!!"
there's a great episode of newsradio where jimmy james runs for president and he uses "life's been good" as his campaign song.
