Out of all the music you had ever heard, it may have been daunting to choose what you believed to be the most appropriate sondtrack for your life. I wonder if you ever considered the theme from the film, 2001: A Space Odyessey?

And, thanks for sharing the video you've made - what a very nice way to put to music events from your children's lives (and hey, I recognize that first song!!). @Rummuser - Excellent choice - I just watched a video of it, and am reminded of what those words mean, thank you for sharing that here! @Mitch - Steal away, this has been a ton of fun hearing what people have chosen!! And, thinking on a Sunday afternoon....yeah, I'm for skipping that too! @Meleah - I did enjoy very much Meleah, thanks again for sharing these here - you've really put a lot of thought and time into these - and I believe they speak volumes for the passion you have in you. @Kelly - I love that song -- "What a Wonderful World". The "Stand by Me" rendition I really liked because of the artists singing it -- U2 and Bruce Springsteen - a couple of my favorites. So, I checked out your (very extensive) list of music of your life! Wow - you've really got quite a list! And...we do have many of the same tastes - U2, Queen, Beatles, The Doors, KISS -- to name a few. Many excellent songs - and several new to me songs (especially the Australian-based bands). Anyway, Kelly, I think we could hang together and enjoy the same music very easily! @Tammy – I love your addition – “You’ve Got a Friend” – that song says a lot – and does describe you very well Tammy!

"What a wonderful world always makes me cry", I love it so much. And "Stand By Me" is an awesome song. I have many songs which define events and periods of my life. When I hear these songs I am immediately transported back in time and often when I think of the past or someone I once knew, a song will be associated with that person or that time.

I don't know that it's odd, but this is an interesting thought you've had about how the words to music affect us. And it really shows the deep meaning music can have for us. Thanks for sharing this here MizFit. @Evita - Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed them Evita! Yes, music is powerful and can be also a very spiritual medium to "connect" us. Thanks for sharing that thought. And, if you do come up with a soundtrack that fits your life, please do share Evita! @Monica - The "Stand by Me" song was the first one that came to mind for me. I love that song too, especially the version above by U2 and Bruce Springsteen. Bursting into song and dance Monica - sounds like an awesome idea - but why do I feel like I would hold back from doing this? Fear? Probably so - fear of not looking "normal" - and goes to show that I need to work on this... Mood - yes that does really play into the choices we make - thanks for sharing three of yours here. From your choices, I really get the belief you do live your life on your terms - and if that's right, that's an awesome thing... @MizFit – The rest IS still unwritten… I don’t know that it’s odd, but this is an interesting thought you’ve had about how the words to music affect us.

I love "Stand by Me." I've always been a fan of the "theme song" concept, probably because I'm an unabashedly big fan of musicals (I also think it'd be cool if people spontaneously burst into song and dance). My "theme song" really depends on my mood. The ones that spring to mind at the moment are... EyeTV - "Just The Way It Is" Tears For Fears - "Mad World" James Taylor - "Fire and Rain" <abbr><em>monica´s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SmarterFitterBlog/~3/437904527/" rel="nofollow">Thursday Food Diary: Bircher, Beer and a Bonus Recipe</a></em></abbr> Great idea, great songs.
