Hmmm...I've thought about this question myself recently...lessee...3 options:

Miles Davis--Spanish Key: Very pimpin'...off the 2nd disc of Bitches Brew.

The Reverend Horton Heat--Big Sky/Baddest of the Bad: Owww...yeah!

Moby--James Bond Theme (Moby's Re-version): Suave and modern...just like me.

I got some more stuff up on there too. Just go to 'advanced search' and run that user ID, everything I've posted will come up.

Today, mine's "Pick up the Pieces" by Average White Band. I am so groovy, it hurts. No, really. Owch.

Beestie · 10-28-2003, 12:51 PM

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm ... so many .. how about...

Al Stewart - On The Border

Used to be George ThoroughlyGood's Bad to the Bone till that damn Al Bundy ruined it. Damn him - damn him to hell!

      In terms of straight music, as Perth stipulated I'd say Iron Maiden's Strange World. To go the other way, and just use lyrics, I'd go with Monty Python's the Bright Side of Life. For a little of both I like Twisted Sister's Stay Hungry.
      Damn... I'm old.

perth · 10-28-2003, 03:12 PM

Lets clarify.

I didn't really mean straight music. I meant "what tune would you want to play every time you walked into a room?". This could be any song, and I guess to an extent, lyrics. You could say:

The lyrics of Monty Python's "The Bright Side of Life" put to the tune of Twisted Sister's "Stay Hungry".

I have half-jokingly answered "The music from the underground levels of Super Mario Brothers" on occasion. So it really doesn't have to be a mainstream song or even a song really. Today I would say my theme song should be "The sound of hard drives clicking before permanent failure".

perth · 10-28-2003, 03:12 PM

I probably ruined my beautiful thread with the post above. Fuck.

10-28-2003, 03:54 PM

I love the sound when Mario goes underground, and was extremely pleased when I first heard it in Super Mario Sunshine.

breakingnews · 10-28-2003, 04:00 PM

It's short, but Moby's "Rushing" is always a really relaxing tune for times when I'm not quite depressed, but in a period of self-pity.

I've been sitting on this for a while, because I never really considered having a theme song. I tried taking one of those online tests to "find your own theme song" and my result was Abba's "Dancing Queen" which I found frightening. I mean, come ON. Abba? You guys know me ... the sound of me killing Abba with a full auto AK-47 with a drum magazine, now THERE'S my theme song.

I was really thinking of something more like the Theme from Twin Peaks. (The owls are not what they seem).

Or ... Laurie Anderson's "Big Science".

Undertoad · 10-29-2003, 07:31 AM

The reason "Dancing Queen" would be included is because of the fine movie "Muriel's Wedding" which featured it as the main character's theme song.
