Before I get started on this I'm going to guess the results are going to be disproportionaltly heavy (even for me) on Church/Church related projects; Gersey; and Catherine Wheel/Rob Dickinson as I've been a real slacker and haven't ripped much else to my itunes (and what's really scary is I've only ripped a small percentage of my Church and Church related material to itunes, and it still makes up a huge portion of what I have on there ). It's will be interesting to see how it turns out.


1. Opening Credits: All In Good Faith -- Noctorum

2. Waking Up: Look To The Sun -- Gersey

3. First Day At School: Cotton Wool -- Lamb

4.Falling In Love: Flower To Hide -- Catherine Wheel

9. Mental Breakdown: Already Yesterday -- The Church

10. Driving: Dropping Names -- The Church

11. Flashback: New Math -- Tom Lehrer (this one is a flashback for me -- I listened to this album when I was just a little tyke )

12. Getting back together: Time Is Imaginary -- Marty Willson-Piper (live)

13. Losing your virginity: No Love -- Gersey ohmy: that title was dead on )

14. Wedding: A Means To An End -- Steve Kilbey (that's accurate -- a means to an end is all it would be)

15. Birth of Child : Fall In Love -- Steve Kilbey

16. Final Battle: Unified Field -- The Church

17. Funeral Song: Transmigration -- Isidore (mighty appropriate )

18. End Credits: Crank -- Catherine Wheel


I was right: 11 Church/Church related tunes; 3 from Catherine Wheel; and 2 from Gersey.
