That's awesome.

Most of my stuff would be instrumental, though. Words confuse me.

CHEATER!:mad:

;)

Seriously, though, I'd like to see what choices you make for stuff like "fight scene" and "first date" and "love scene" and "mental breakdown" and "learning a lesson" - not that I mind seeing seven different variations on "get zooted."

[CaptinPickAxe]

You must understand, as a producer of Hip Hop, getting lifted is on my schedule several times a day. :D thank Dave Chappelle for helping me fullfill the stereotype.

Anxiety: "Waiting Room" Fugazi

[Vash]

I'll have to pull my CDs out of my truck, take a listen to 'em again.
That way I can give a fair representation of the peep who is Vash.

I hear people talking all day, every day. I like the quiet when I can get it.

[Chang Style Novice]

Cool - I'm just saying this is supposed to be your whole life, not just one day. That's why it has the whole "love story" segment (First date, Falling in love Love scene, Fight scene, Breaking up, Getting back together, Secret love), as well as death scene and opening and closing credits. You're varying the concept.

Which is OK.

But still cheating.:p

... have to think about the others. Consulting with Quentin Tarantino would be a must; I don't know about his directin' skills, but he sure as heck knows how to throw a soundtrack.
Oh, and can I have Mira Sorvino or Jennifer Connelly cast as a leading lady? :p

(I could have listed some musicians from my country, but I'm guessing you've never ever heard of them.)
