Post The soundtrack of your biography

Inspired in darklinensuit post about performers for your movie, list ten songs for the soundtrack of your movie version biography. Mine would be:

It never rains in Southern California (for my childhood)
Twilight - ELO (for the early 80s)
Bohemian Rhapsody (early 80s)
Eye in the Sky (mid 80s)
La Incondicional - Luis Miguel (for the late 80s)
Tusk (my memories circa 1990)
A Little Respect (early 90s)
La Bilirrubina - Juan Luis Guerra (early 90s too)
Silver Springs (circa 1997)
Pina Colada song (2001)

I think these songs would have to be included in my bio:

Ordinary World-Duran Duran
Storms-FM
Fixing a Hole-Beatles
Beautiful Night-Paul McCartney
No More Lonely Nights-Paul McCartney
Bitch-Meredith Brooks
Two of Us-Beatles
Perhaps a tune from Smoky Mountain Christmas-my all-time favorite movie lol..

These are just some songs that have been a part of my life in one way or another...I'm sure there are more..but I'm lazy and don't want to think of them at this moment

Mr. E's Beautiful Blues (the Eels) -- for my childhood among the carnival outlaws

I Want Out of the Circus (Cracker) -- for my running away from the circus at the age of 10

Never Going Back Again (FM) -- for that three-year gig as a gas station attendant and moonlighting as street corner acapella singer

Graceland (Paul Simon) -- Hello, Memphis

Get Off This (Cracker) -- For that brief early-20s slacker period

Surrender the Rain (Lindsey) -- for my "lost summer" in the Caribbean followed by my stint in Budapest wishing I were in Prague

Hey Bulldog (Beatles) -- for miscellaneous scenes as appropriate

Love Is Amazing (traditional) -- well, you know...

Not that Funny (FM) -- for my years as a newspaperman

Everything (me) -- because, in the end, it all comes back to love and home.

Journey~"Stone In Love" or "Escape" (reminds me of one of the best parts of my childhood~~Running on my rollerskates and my love of music)
Fleetwood Mac~"Say You Love Me" or "Dreams" (Being driven to school and singing along to these songs because my mom was, little did I know at six and seven years old that this band would have a future impact on me)
Queen~Another "One Bites The Dust" (Playing this song for band on my flute back in 1981, I ran out and got the Greatest Hits album and saw the movie Flash Gordon on cable are all memories of things I liked then and even now)
Van Halen~"Hot Summer Nights" (Summertime at a Van Halen concert with someone I loved at the time)
Lindsey Buckingham~"Holiday Road" (1983 Dick Clark's American Bandstand featured the music video and I was watching this on my brand new Black and white TV as I was without TV for 2 years!!)
Jann Arden~"Insensitive" ( Reminds me of many karoake nights I participated in and this was my song. It took on later meaning when I liked someone who did not return my feelings.)
Fleetwood Mac~"Hold Me" ( A reintroduction to the band via a neighbor and MTV- a music video that changed my life! Thought that Lindsey was one hot looking dude and thought the band was pretty frickin' cool!)
Big Country~"In A Big Country" ( driving around with my mom and her boyfriend at the time and his two kids, looking for sites to take scenery pictures)
Patty Griffiin~"Christina" (my friend Angie bought the album Flaming Red and played the song for me, I thought it was Ok until I started listening to a tape she made for me later on. I love the discovery of something new!)
