    Let's see if I can make sense out of all of them.

    Opening: Wonderboy - Tenacious D (Hell yeah!)
    Birth: Here It Goes Again - OK Go (The song is about a hangover after a one night stand, so... um...)
    First Day of School: What would Brian Boitano Do? - DVDA (Well, to survive school, I'll make a plan and I'll follow through, I guess)
    Falling in love: Times are Changing - Bob Dylan (Probably hinting towards puberty, I dunno)
    Fight scene: Boss of Me - They Might Be Giants (VERY appropriate)
    Breaking up: I Feel Fantastic - Jonathan Coulton (I guess she was holding me back?)
    Prom: Monkey Island Theme Song - Michael Land (It was adventurous, maybe?)
    Life: Also Sprach Zarathustra - Strauss (Maybe I evolved into a better person?)
    Mental Breakdown: Flash Gordon Theme Song - Queen (hallucinations?)
    Driving: This Year - Mountain Goats (This seems appropriate, actually)
    Flashback: Different Town - SB & TMBG (Everything was different, apparently)
    Wedding: Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny - Lemon Demon (That's one heck of a wedding!)
    Birth of child: White and Nerdy - Weird Al (Like father like son?)
    Final Battle: Istanbul - TMBG (I dunno, I can't make any connection here)
    Death scene: Killer Queen - Queen (That damn prostitute killed me!)
    Funeral: Beautiful Day - U2 (Bono hates me?)
    End credits: Never Gonna Give You Up - Rick Astley (Roll'd the credits? heh)

    Other than Wonderboy, this does not resemble my actual life (I hope not).

    Entirely made up of Van Halen and AC/DC music.

    Wow, this is one cool game, I must try it. Ok, here goes.
    Opening: Someone Put Your Hand Out by Michael Jackson
    Birth: Vanilla Twilight by Owl City (um, ok...)
    First Day of School: Love You Madly by CAKE (While it is kind of a love song, I can definitely imagine walking into school with this music blaring)
    Falling in love: The Largo LaGrande Theme - Monkey Island 2 Soundtrack (Well, I do like the upbeat Jazz feel to it, so I guess it fits :p )
    Fight scene: Got to Move by CAKE (If it was in slow-motion, sure :p )
    Breaking up: Sergeamt Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band by The Beatles (I guess I was pretty happy to be rid of her :p )
    Prom: Teenage Pregnancy by CAKE (God, I lol'd when I heard that, cause goodness knows what goes on at those things :p )
    Life: Crescendolls by Daft Punk (yeah, I s'pose that works)
    Mental Breakdown: You Are Not Alone by Michael Jackson (PERFECT!)
    Driving: Phatt Island - Monkey Island 2 Soundtrack (It is kinda bluesy, and I like that, so for me it fits)
    Flashback: Commissioning a Symphony in C by CAKE (that works pretty well, not great for a flashback, but it works)
    Wedding: Something About Us by Daft Punk (It's...weird)
    Birth of child: Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds by The Beatles (I think that works really well)
    Final Battle: Fall Again by Michael Jackson (YES! It has an epicness about it, like I'm slowly building myself up for a big battle)
    Death scene: Lady In Red - Altiyan Childs cover (It's sad sounding enough I guess, but I'm not a lady :p I could be singing to a loved one as I die or something though :p )
    Funeral: Wanna Be Starting Something (Ok, WTF is this, maybe my friends are out for blood for my murder? Idk, the title suggests that whoever killed me started a war)
    End credits: A Dimension of Pain - Monkey Island 2 Soundtrack (Now that's just silly)
  • edited October 2012
    Opening scene: ZZ Top - La Grange (Oh lord how unfitting for any part of my life)

    Birth: Mumford and Sons - Thistle and Weeds (Hoping this mess of unfitting music keeps up. I'm serious)

    First day of school: Queen - It's Late (You're just a bit early there, Queen...)

    Falling in love: Yakkity Sax (I AM SERIOUSLY LOVING THIS!)

    Fight song: The Secret of Monkey Island (Some director out there somewhere could make this work)

    Breaking up: Meco - Star Wars Cantina Band (Because upbeat music I could dance to if I could dance is very sad)

    Prom: Iron Horse - Ride the Lightning (If they were going to play Bluegrass Metallica at my prom I would have went)

    Life: Barenaked Ladies - It's Only Me (The Wizard of Magicland) (Wow, this almost fits, but still manages to be wrong)

    Mental breakdown: Jason Mraz - Curbside Prophet (You know, iTunes... this would have been a perfect time for I'm Going Slightly Mad, but oh well)

    Driving: Bad Company - She Brings Me Love (I've never heard this song. Why is it in my music library)

    Flashback: Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Blinded By The Light (Maybe if it were to as a little child in a car with my mom, but who'd watch that flashback?)

    Wedding: Foreigner - Hot Blooded

    Birth of child: Victor Borge - A Mozart Opera

    Final battle: Weird Al - White and Nerdy (And the streak of unfitting ends)

    Death scene: Thomas Dolby - Airwaves (I... I honestly can't tell)

    Funeral: Thomas Dolby - Return to Oceanea (I do not need more than one remix of Oceanea playing at my funeral.)

    End credits: Iron Horse - One (Oh yes please. Leave them confused)
