Why?

The reason for this blog is to keep track of my ideas I have in the shower, since my dry erase board fell and all the markings were washed away in the tub.

everyone else is doing it

*Opening Credits: “How Many More Times” by Led Zeppelin (starting it off with some class, some swing, and a really long ass set of credits:8:27)

*First Day At School: “Derelict” by Beck (I was tripping balls on my first day of school)

*Falling In Love: “Fascination Street” by The Cure (Dark/obsessive lyrics, heavy/raw music, sounds like my early love life)

*Breakin Up: “Break & Enter” by The Prodigy (longest break up ever: 8:23 – really happy when it was over, the relationship and the song)

*Prom: “Walk Away” by Franz Ferdinand (walk away?!, what a shitty title for a prom song)

*Sex scene: “4 Degrees” by Tool (guess since my prom date walked away, I hooked up with a goth chick and she was into some kinky stuff)

*Life's Ok: “God’s Away On Business” by Tom Waits (this is my life is okay song!?! This movie is not heading towards a happy ending)

*Mental Breakdown: “Devil’s Haircut” by Beck (hmm, during a mental breakdown I get a haircut…I think I saw this the first time in “Taxi Driver”)

*Driving: “Stop, Stop, Stop” by The Hollies (this song is actually about a stripper, not a car, but it does built a certain degree of intensity mid movie))

*Flashback: “I’m The Man Who Loves You” by Wilco (good title for a flashback song, though it is a pretty sedated song for this list)

*Getting Back Together: “Boy Named Sue” by Johnny Cash (apparently I had a falling out with my father that was simply alluded to, but never fully expressed until this moment in the movie)

*Birth of Child: “The New Romance” by Pretty Girls Make Graves (okay…kinda fits. Oh yeah, and I must have had a hell of a lot of sex before she got pregnant in the basement, rooftop, etc.)

*Wedding Scene: “Furious Angels” by Rob Dougan (wow, this is going to be a great marriage)

*Final Battle: “El Phantasmo And The Chicken-Run Blast-O-Rama” by White Zombie (oh hell yes.)

*Death Scene: “The Private Psychedelic Reel” by The Chemical Brothers (a really interesting and pretty great death scene song, oh yeah, and its only 9:28. I didn’t go out without a long drawn out narrative recapping the movie)

*Funeral Scene: “Seed” by Paloalto (Straight out of the O.C. my loved ones come to mourn my passing…I got this album from Tim for my sister, I swear to god…)

*End Credits: “Sweat” by Tool (My movie ends the way my soundtrack scripted it: Raw, Heavy, Pissed)
