Later Brink!

The National Geographic Special themesong. Why? Well, its what I do...

Though sometimes, I'll be walking down the street, minding my own business, and I can swear I hear the strains of Carmina burana by Carl Orff.....

<STRONG>Brink, I'd say Bach's Toccata would be a good theme song for you! </STRONG>

*LOL* - Good choice
I'd love to make that one in to a techno version - but I'm not good enough (yet )

Wich movement - I best like O Fortuna

Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. Mostly the 1st and 3rd movements, I don't like the 2nd movement much

Are you sure it hasn't been done? I bet somebody has butchered it before...

Proberly - haven't bother looking for it
Just thought it could be cool when I like both kinds of music

As is likely the case with many people, my theme song tends to vary with my mood and general situation.
Currently I would say that I identify quite closely with the song "Elsewhere" by Sara McLachlan (from her "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy" album)

Well for some reason The Spam Song by Monty Python comes to mind right now. Though there are some days when I Be An Retarded by They Might Be Giants seems more appropriate. Seriously, if I had to pick a single song that I enjoy and that sums up my personality fairly well I’d have to go with Close Your Eyes (Buffy and Angel Love Theme) by Christophe Beck (though I was tempted a number of pieces written by James Horner, Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, Nobuo Uematsu, Hans Zimmer, and the afore mentioned Christophe Beck).

Bob the builder

I dunno, for me, maybe "Dare to be Stupid" by, unfortuneatly, Weird Al.

Actual, more like American Pyscho, by Treble Charger, just replace American with Canadian, (or lumberjack ) and it should be good!

Or to go to it's peak, perhaps "Basket Case" By Green day.. All those suit me well...

No, seriously, my choice would be the main theme of Shostakovitch 10th symphony. Maybe most of you haven't even heard it? </STRONG>

Yep. Mine? Maybe Malipiero's Rispetti e Strambotti (his first string quartet). Either that, or Wilson Pickett's Mustang Sally ("Gonna slow you' Mustang, doooown...")

LOL, not when I try and play it I can do the first movement, no problem. The last movement is a little trickier...

you try to play it I merely listen and occasionally hum along (maybe a whistle to )

I used to be able to make a pretty good attempt too, I am out of practice though (no piano at uni )... I can get through it. Strangely enough, the parts that sound the most difficult, I can do. weird.

I actually tried to learn the piano once. I was quite good actually (at the basics ) I once played the cello which seemed to put me in good stead. But all of these things require practice, and i didn't ahve the time

@Sleep I started learning piano when I was about 5. And I have played tenor horn since I was about 10. And I took Music at GCSE and A level.

@Georgi-Wow (I believe this word says it all )
