I could live with a lot of these picks, especially the Robbie Williams "Beyond the Sea."
What a wonderful mix! I love all these songs. Hall & Oates rock and I loved that song being in 500 Days of Summer.
Hey Buttercup - I bet you'd enjoy them all!
Colleen - Thanks. I didn't have to go far, most of the songs I love happen to be in movies too.
Lots of upbeat, pick-me-up songs on this CD. Let's face it, that's probably the way to go and you might be the only survivor after a year or two while the rest of us jumped off a cliff ahah
I got way too much Smash Mouth back then. I can't listen to them anymore without being annoyed just a little bit. Maybe if they didn't overplay them, the story would be different.
Otherwise, I think I can get behind your list.
Castor - what can I say, that's who I am, and definitely the music I can listen to forever! I have thought of a few more, but they all fit right into the same genre.
David - I'm with you on Smashmouth in general - way overplayed (like Lady Antebellum today perhaps, that song's driving me NUTS). But I still really like this song.
Really, you could almost include the whole soundtrack for "Ten Things I Hate About You," which is one of my favorite movie soundtracks. I still can't hear "Stuck in the Middle with You" on the radio without cringing because of the torture scene in "Reservoir Dogs."
Mock mock mock mock mock. ;) You know how, in your profile, the first thing you say is "I am an optimist?" Well, in case anyone didn't see that, this list would be the prime bit of evidence. Wow, these are some chipper songs! Not bad, per se, but if they're all I have on my desert island, the happiness will either be infectious and make me overjoyed...or possibly drive me to murder/suicide. I can't decide which.
Meredith - I think I included the wrong 10 Things song - the Heath Ledger song is better.
Fletch - Yup, these are my kind of songs. I didn't have to look too far to pick 'em either. I'd have the right music to dance to, so I'd be all set. I could run away from you when the music drove you crazy.
