The rules:
1. Put your music player of choice on shuffle
2. Scene one = first song played, scene two = second, etc.
3. No cheating/skipping
4. Pass it on
For kicks, I will also grade iTunes for the appropriateness of the song:
Opening Credits: Steven Curtis Chapman - For the Sake of the Call (Nice song, but judging by the later choices, the movie isn't about this. C)
Waking Up: Ailsean - Knights Come Marching Home (What it sounds like. Cutely appropriate. B+)
An Ordinary Day: Hitoshi Sakimoto - Battleship [Gradius V] (Err, what? Exactly what kind of day do you consider "ordinary"? F, unless I have a really action-packed job, which I don't.)
Falling in Love: Josh Groban - Si Volvieras A Mi (Ah, now that's MUCH better. A+)
The Rumble: JAXX - a!bol hardcore (Very techno, but it works. Pace is a little slow, though; I think the choreography will be a little obvious in this fight. B+)
The Break-up: Yasunori Mitsuda - Forest of the Black Moon [Xenogears] (Nothing sad about this song, though it's got a bit of "I'm confused and lost". C-)
Getting Back Together: Jennifer Knapp - Into You ("I want to know you better than I do"? Good choice. A)
Life's Okay: Weird Al Yankovic - Headline News (What the...? You were doing so well, then you give me Al?! C)
The Mental Breakdown: Ryo Yonemitsu - Murder D [World Heroes 2 Image] (Discordant and chaotic, if slightly too fast-paced. B+)
Cruising: Bill Brown - Hall of Mists [Lineage II] (Cruising where? Lothlorien? D+)
The Flashback: Dennis Bradford and Mami Horie - When Tomorrow Comes (Nice! Even the title works. A)
The Frat Party: Yasunori Mitsuda - People Seized With Life [Chrono Cross] (...despite the name, this is a slow and depressing piece. Dullest party ever. F)
Everybody Dance Now: Frank Klepacki - Command and Conquer (Hmm... Yeah, you can mosh to this. B)
Regretting: Shiro Mamaguchi and Nobuo Uematsu - Gekimetsu Gourai [Ah My Goddess] (Fast-paced again... apparently someone's regretting the fact that they've been spotted by the bad guys. D)
The Long Night Alone: U2 - When Love Comes to Town (iTunes is being iRonic again. Way too positive. F)
A Death: Noriyuki Asakura - Shishio Makoto no Kumiyoku [Rurouni Kenshin] (Apparently died in a swordfight. B)
End Credits: The Waiting - Hands in the Air (Yeah, nicely conclusive. This was the last song on the CD for a reason. A)
