if your life was a movie, what would the soundtrack be?
so, here's how it works:

1. open your music 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. be honest, even if you're embarassed to have the song or it doesn't fit

This is pretty cool, shows others the songs you have in your library (sometimes really wierd ones) and also, if you have a large library, will introduce you to a new song you havent listened to. I know i have about 10,000 of them (no joke). Alright. I started, the rest of you go.
