Soundtrack of Our Lives

[Andy Frankham]

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:

1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...

Woo! I love all that stuff from 91/92...it's what first got me into dance music. I've probably got more mainstream tastes than you though. My favourite is "Feel So Real" by Dream Frequency.
