Do You Have a Theme For Yourself?

RacRules: Hey, that song fits me a bit too!

I’ve got a few songs that fit me

One of the Boys by Katy Perry
Feels Like Today by Rascal Flatts
Haters by Hilary Duff (fits me now more than ever since I’m now really ticked off by haters)

I probably have more that I just can’t remember fit me. I’ll probably add them on when I remember.

Ha! Now this is an interesting question. To answer it, ever since I first saw The Lion King as a kid (which was back in 1994), I knew that my theme song was, “I Just Can’t Wait to be King”. It still is, although, to be completely honest, I’m only 34% sure as to why this is… (Yeah, I just picked a number percentage-wise. The point is that it’s a small number…)

I think I can another song for my personal theme: Just Close Your Eyes, by Story of the Year.

I changed (:.

Now I feel it’s more I’m Still Here, from Treasure Planet. It’s kind of confusing not being popular, but not a total geek, not being ugly, but still isn’t singled out a pretty, not being a total jerk, but not a total nice girl either. It’s hard to find your place, and people seem to just pass by you.

Rac_Rules: You too? :smiley: I know, it’s like, who doesn’t feel a connection to that song the moment it starts playing in Treasure Planet? I think everyone feels like Jim’s theme is also their theme in a way.

Okay, so now I just recently saw Bridge to Terabithia- terrific film, no kidding (although the trailer kinda was misleading for those who want the plot…oh, man, I’ve strayed off-topic again!). Anyway, I would consider one of my new themes to be Keep Your Mind Wide Open, because I am usually more active in imagination than my friends- usually.

My theme song would have to be “Peices” by Sum 41. I’m a really independent person.

“I’m just trying to let you know
that I’m better off on my own.”

O.K., now mine is “So Long and Thanks for All the Fish” from the movie “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.” The song was an attempt to warn us of Earth’s impending doom which the singers had known of for a very long time. They had given us many warnings which were misinterpreted as attempts to punch footballs or whistle for snacks. They finally decided to leave Earth by their own means. Their final message goes like this:

So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear______
You may not share our intellect
Which might explain your disrespect
For all the natural wonders that grow_ a-round you_
So long so long and thanks
For all the fish (pause)
The world’s about to be destroyed
There’s no point getting all annoyed
Lie back and let the planet dissolve_ a-round you_
Despite those nets of tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots
And your preg-nant wo-men
So long so long
So long so long so long
So long so long
So long so long so long
So long so long and thanks
For all the fish______ (pause)
(Slow) If I had just one last wish
(Slow) I would like a tasty fish
(Slow) I we could just change one thing
(Slow) We would all have lungs to sing
(Slow) Come_______ one and all
(Slow) Man______ and mammal
(Slow) Side______ by side__ in___
(Slow) Life’s____ great____ gene____ pool_______
(Long pause)
Ooh____ ooh____
Ahh___ ahh___ AHH____ AHH__
SO LONG SO LONG
SO LONG SO LONG SO LONG
SO LONG SO LONG
SO LONG SO LONG SO LONG
SO LONG SO LONG AND THANKS
FOR ALL THE FISH__________________________

Klendathu Drop is awesome.

Mine… I don’t know. It could be Journey to the Island by J.W.

Hmm…well, this is an interesting thread…there are so many songs that I feel could serve as a theme song but I guess I’ll only name a few…

Crawl Back In by Dead by Sunrise
I feel this song describes myself and how I’m looking at my life in general, living in a world that expects me to conform by its rules when in reality I would rather conform to my own…it’s like the song says, “I don’t want to be like them…I wanna crawl back in.”

Never Enough by Five Finger Death Punch
Another fine example of feeling like the world wants to control me when in reality I don’t want to be controlled although it’s a song that describes me when I’m really just mad at the world…“It’s always do this, do that, anything they want to, I don’t want to live that way, every chance they get they’re always pushing me away…” Sometimes with school and work, I just feel that sometimes what I do, it’s never enough for I’ll be what I want to be, not what anyone wants me to be…

Psycho by Puddle of Mudd
This song describes me at times when things that I know is partially my fault happens, a song that does remind me that even I can be guilty of stuff too and that I am not perfect, that maybe sometimes the real psycho through it all is myself…

Monster (growl version) by Skillet
I just started listening to this band and I’m actually starting to like them…this song is probably the perfect theme song for the fact is that my life is not an open book, no one knows everything about myself and why I do the things I do, even I don’t always understand everything I do myself…sometimes that secret side of myself, certain parts of my personality can be kind of like it’s own monster as like the song says “its hidin in the dark, its teeth are razor sharp, there’s no escape for me, it wants my soul, it wants my heart, no one can hear me scream, maybe its just a dream or maybe its inside of me, stop this monster…” Lol, then again, I’m sure that all of us have some kind of monster inside of all of us, some just hide it better than others…

That’s about all that I can think of for now…

I certainly do have a theme song. It’s called "It’s Raining Men by The Weather Girls. Yes, that can be taken a number of ways.

But a more appropriate and serious one is probably Europa by Santana. There are no lyrics, only a guitarist playing a song that’s simple, yet beautiful and mysterious. I think of life as being like that. Or how it should be anyway.
