Writer's Block: Your Theme

If your daily life had a theme song, what would it be?

Spoon, "The Way We Get By", from Kill the Moonlight. (Apologies for the poor audio of the embed - Spoon's webpage has better.)





Don't read too much into the literal meaning.

Good choice!

I heard that song on the Stranger Than Fiction soundtrack (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLPUmYiVgbw), but never realised it was by Spoon.
My theme would have to be something stupid and bouncy like What Planet Is This? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zRwRatEa8c).

Quite an interesting choice, yourself!

Yep - Spoon's a pretty good band. Britt Daniel was one of the two people in charge of the soundtrack to that movie, actually.

Yeah I tend to run around a lot and like climbing on things

I like what little i've heard of Spoon so I'll have to check them out.

Kill the Moonlight and Gimme Fiction were the albums from which they drew songs for Stranger Than Fiction, but you can find examples from any of their albums on the band website (linked above). The movie soundtrack is pretty good as well.
