I did a search on this and didn’t find anything. My apologies if it’s been done before.
Anyhow, the question is:
What’s the theme song for your life?
To be fair, I’ll tell you mine:
“I Saved the World Today”… Eurythmics. I know it’s corny, but it fits. Also, I think it’s a nice song.
Lately, it’s been The Bad Plus version of “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.”
Mr. Wonderful by Smile.dk.
The Merry-go-round Broke Down?
“Pure and Easy” (the original PT version)
Hah. That’s good. The Looney Tunes song. Leave it to a member of the Straight Dope Message Board to know that one! 
“Dreams” by the Rippingtons.
Its such a neat song for me to daydream about kiteflying!
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
Mine is either “Tubthumping” by Chumbawumba (“I get knocked down/but I get up again/and they’re never going to bring me down”) or “Demolition Man” by the Police.
Alabama Song by Weil/Brecht (but the Doors’ Version of course, otherwise this one from an Israeli woman who seems to be dressed as Gaiman’s Death).
Ladyfingers by Luscious Jackson.
“Twigs And Seeds” by Jesse Winchester.
Loser by Beck?
I’ll try to think of a better one…maybe one that reflects some better self esteem.
Brendon Small
“Still Crazy After All These Years” by Paul Simon.
Come to the barbecue and sit by my side
We couldn’t choose a better night if we tried
Can’t you imagine what a thrill it will be
Pickin’ a chicken with me
It’s so romantic, the moon up above
Is extra bright on a night such as this,
Pullin’ a wishbone with someone you love
Is almost certain to end with a kiss
It’s also got a cool lot of up-beat doobie-doobies.
(this is the only place in the world where I could admit this.)
Just My Imagination
Lately it’s “Curriculum Vitae” the Alps
I can’t find the lyrics anywhere online, but they go like this:
Don’t go to work today
it’s overrated
don’t throw your precious days away
they can’t be backdated
You’re working all the hours God sends
for someone you don’t like
You know where you can stick your curriculum vitae
All the hours God sends
I’d sooner be with you…
There are a couple of "you"s I know that I’d rather be around lately, but I do so hate working for my boss.
I was the designated driver for an Atlanta pub crawl a few weeks ago, and had that song stuck in my head all night.
Lately I’ve been humming this old French sailing song. I guess I have a pathetic craving for adventure.
When the screen fades to black and the closing credits of the movie of my life start to roll, one of two songs will be playing:
“I’m Still Standing” by Elton John, or
“Midnight Blue” by Lou Gramm.
“Desperado” by the Eagles, paticularly the reprise:
The Queen of Diamonds let you down, she was just an empty fable.
The Queen of Hearts you claim you never met.
Your twisted fate has found you out and it’s finally turned the table.
They stole your dreams and paid you with regret.
