It's time to listen to your motif.If you had to choose only one song to best represent who you are, which would it be? (Kudos if it's non-vocal.)For convenience, see if you can provide an audio link, abridged or whole. I tried to fit the entire track into the following, but due to a shortage in images, I had to truncate it. The "rump playtime" still gets my persona across, nonetheless: http://hundredenuller.googlepages.com |

This song, by my favorite group when I was in college (sorry about the goofy '60s video), represents how I used to be. But these days I think this song (same group) sums me up perfectly.

It depends a lot on my mood, really. Right now, I'd probably plumb for Daniel Powter's Bad Day. I need to sing it out loud - it's ironically a balm on the soul despite its rather melancholic lyrics. | ||||

It's simply impossible to pick one song that represents me. I remember one occasion about 8 years ago when I told a mate of mine that I felt that a certain song represented me, even though I didn't use that word. The song was Penetration, by Breach. If I had to, I suppose I could still say that it represents one side of me, though.
Anyway, here is the Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) music video by Deftones. They've been one of my favorite rock bands for a long time, even though I don't listen to them as frantically as I used to. And here is the The Songs That We Sing video by Charlotte Gainsbourg, whom I've recently discovered, musically speaking. Some of you might recognize her from the movie screen. I saw her in 21 Grams. |

Re: It's time to listen to your motif.
Hmmm... hard to pick just one song to represent me since I'm a million different people from one day to the next.  But I imagine any of these 3 tunes playing in the back as I slink into a smoke filled room:
Selection 1 Selection 2 Selection 3 |

Wow! Compared to that, your changing avatar is nothing. |

Re: It's time to listen to your motif.
Oh! I just remembered one more... Selection 4 (Warning: explicit lyrics)

Ooh, Elaine, I like your first selection! I've slithered into many a [non]smoke-filled room to music like that. And the third one is, of course, perfect for you. | ||||

Elaine, are you being serious or are you throwing a couple of well-aimed turds at my face? I have After Dark and Fuck the Pain Away on my computer and Four Rooms is one of the coolest films I've ever seen! Damn, girl! | ||||
| Elaine |
Pish! You're just saying that to win me over.  Well, whad'ya know... Walker likes him some Peaches.

Well, that particular song kind of stuck with me after I heard it in a movie. |

This song is when I'm sad and think nothing more will be well in the future, but as the other people, it's impossible to find one song to represent me.
http://videos.tf1.fr/video/musique/clips/clips_s/0,,3297561,00.html Although this song can be seen to have political connotatiosn, I don't feel the song and words this way, but about the life of the (a) person. |
