Essentially it's just like the title says, whats your theme song? What's the song that people could play whenever you walk into the room, and they'll know who you are and what you stand for? If it makes it easier for you to understand(If you don't already that is) think of like, the WWF, those guys all have a theme song of sorts that gets played whenever they walk down.

Now I know it's hard to pick a theme song, so let's flex this just a little bit, and say up to three choices, and you can pick what kind of theme it is. Like, angry theme or the I MEAN BUSINESS theme, Daily theme, and the DAMN I FEEL GOOD theme or even the Sad theme, as one of them if you'd prefer. Pick one, pick three, but don't pick more. Now lets go at it.

For me i'd have to say:

Angry Theme: Trapt - Headstrong
This song almost feels like it was written to be a theme for everybody that's not gonna take anything from anyone. And man, i'm already bullheaded, but when i'm angry it's like I want to take anyone and everyone down so just step off.

Daily Theme: Ozzy Osbourne - Crazy Train
My day to day life is crazy, and so are the people in it. And I can relate to everything in the song, most of the time I can relate to the stuff in this song. I'm just another person going off the rails.

Sad Theme : Sound Garden - Black Hole Sun
I'd like to think this one is self explanatory. I know when i'm in a bad mood, I just want the rain to wash away.

This one time I punched a bear in the forehead TO DEATH! I still have the scars on my chest. I am the manliest man that ever did man.

League: Z3roHawk
Steam: Zero_Hawk
Wii U: Zero_Hawk
FF14 - Goblin - Zero Hawk <Fiend>

Haha, nice topic, ZH .

Sad Theme: Knockin on Heaven's Door- Bob Dylan Version.


Angry Theme: The End. By the Doors. Because I get pissed very slowly, and then it builds to a point where I snap, and do ninja tricks.


As of March 15th, I change my Daily Theme to- Lookin Out My Back Door- Credence Clearwater Revival.

It's just alot of nothing, so what can it mean?

ZH, I love this topic

Basic theme: Eagles - "Take it easy". Actually got that one from a "What should your theme song be?" test on the web XD Nonetheless, I think it suits my everyday approach and mood.

Moody/Sad theme: Tool - "Sober". If ever you hear this song playing out of nowhere, leave or hide yourself. It'll mean I'm not in the mood for anything and my sense of humor will be turned on reverse.

Combat theme: Blind Guardian - "Mirror, mirror". One of my favourite songs by BG, I almost automatically have it in my ears when I fight/duel. Tomorrow bears insanity.

--------------------

"I fell off the mountain of words at around the 10,000ft mark. Tell my family...they owe me money." -Narratorway

"If you retort against this, so help me God I'll shove any part of your anatomy I can find into some other part. Figuratively, of course." - Josh

"We have more, can deliver tuesday." - Del S

Good old CoN

When I got my first credit card I had this day dream of my card being swiped through all sorts of credit er...machines to the music of "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor.

SWIPE/swipe/swipe/SWIPE

swipity/swipity/swipity...

Daydreams aside, I would say that my theme song is "Happiness is a Warm Gun" by The Beatles. Not only does it fit my mood usually but it quite often has the perfect dramatic feel for almost any situation including but not limited to; Room entrances, pacing, dentist visits, family holidays, voting, sex, after meal ciggy and vomiting. Rather all-inclusive, IMO.



--------------------

"You broke my f***ing sitar, mother f***er."
-Anton A. Newcombe

"Yet another 'use your sword to magically deliver death from above' character comes in somewhere between the Living Cabbage and Milkmaid character options." -red_beard_neo

No question. "Higher Ground" - Red Hot Chili Peppers. Since 2003, it's been my official theme song. Whenever the rumbling stumbling bass intro rips it up, it makes you just think "Bobbo..."



--------------------

"When I turn the page
The corner bends into the perfect dog ear
As if the words knew I'd need them again
But at the time, I didn't see it."

~"This Ain't a Surfin' Movie" - Minus the Bear

Stone Roses - Fool's Gold.

Because I'm the only one who loves that song. And I get a chill every time I hear:

"The pack on my back is achin'
The straps seem to cut me like a knife"

It's so difficult living with friends and working one day a week until university (where I'll work less)...

Scepticism, that dry rot of the intellect, had not left one entire idea in his mind.

Me on the Starcraft.

Sad theme - Bye Bye Miss American Pie

Anything that doesn't involve being awesome - Relax

Regular theme - Any variation of the Star Fox theme song

--------------------

We, who cannot see into tomorrow, have no way of knowing... But... But... If you don't find dreams yourself... if you don't capture your ambitions... happiness won't just come to you.

sad theme- Rythym of Immortality (FF9)
regular theme- Get Out Of My Yard (paul gilbert)
angry theme- The Divine Spirit Of Language (star ocean 3)

God... picking themes is hard... decided to have a crack at it ANYWAY.

Most Suitable Theme - Hasty Boom Alert // μ-ziq
Angry/Scared Theme - Approaching Menace // μ-ziq
Sad/Worried Theme - Mulholland Drive/Love Theme // Angelo Badalamenti

Okay so these are hardly themes for myself (Regular is though), they are associated to the emotion.

My main theme would be "More than Useless" by RelientK.


--------------------

Status:
FF6 -- Finished! Yeah!
FF7 -- Finished (easily, and without KOtR)
FF8 -- End of Disc 3
Secret of Evermore--Leveling up for Salabog

"Go sit over there. Put your seatbelt on."--Squall

I like Patrick Wolf's 'Accident & Emergency' as a sort of everyday theme. It's a very happy-go-lucky, almost naively upbeat song, and it's just great fun. It never ceases to make my ass jiggle. And really, jiggling asses is what I'm all about.

I guess if I wanted a serious theme, I'd opt for Radiohead's 'Let Down.' I don't know why, but I always put it on when I'm all drunk and sentimental (ironically, it contains the line 'Don't get sentimental, it always ends up drivel') and it never ceases to just make me really, really happy.

If anything, because of all the memories tied in with it, it'd have to be Iron Maiden's "Brave New World."

For the sake of the whole "cool" factor, I'd also put Van Halen's "Humans Being" as a runner up.

--------------------

"Judge not a man by his thoughts and words, but by
the quality and quantity of liquor in his possession
and the likelyhood of him sharing."

Regular- "Be" by Common
Angry/Pump Up- "Triumph" by Wu-Tang. We used to listen to this before cross country races in high school. The back of our shirts my senior year said "Run for your brother, kid, run for your team" (lyrics from the song.)
Sad- "Me Against the World" by Tupac
Philisophical- "Respiration" by Black Star

Hip-Hop QOTW:

"Yeah, where I'ma start it at, look I'ma part of that
Downtown Philly where it's realer than a heart attack
It wasn't really that ill until the start of crack
Now it's a body caught every night on the Almanac"

"Game Theory"
The Roots

Daily theme: Running on Ice-Billy Joel. I'm not gonna go into detail.

Combat Theme-any of the Battlefield game series load music (they're all basically the same)

Sad Theme? That's a poser. I don't have one, really, I make it a rule to keep myself happy, but how about "Behind Blue Eyes" by The Who, only change it to brown eyes, 'cause it'd be more accurate.

--------------------

Come with me so I can show you how to live
Burning the candle at both ends
I’m gripping at the walls around me
Don’t complicate it
I’m addicted to this life
I’ll be your token of attention
All my lies come down to this
-Orgy, "Beautiful Disgrace"

Angry theme - "Blinded by fear" by At the Gates
Angry theme 2 - "Kill With Power" by Arch Enemy

Sad Theme - I don't remember who sang this song, you people probably will, but it goes... "ALL BY MYSELF"
Sad theme 2 - Id's theme song from Xenogears, sad and angry, falls into both. The way it sounds, the feeling!

My Life theme song - "I'M A MANIAC, MANIAC!!" hehe

"...quite possibly the greatest game ever made"

Daily theme- "In the Flesh" Pink Floyd. This has been one of my favorite songs for a long time.

Angry theme- "Better living through chemistry" Queens of the Stone Age. I like this one because it's calm but angry at the same time.

Sad theme- "3 Libras" A Perfect Circle. Just a plain sad song.

"We're not tools of the government or anyone else. Fighting... fighting was the only thing I was ever good at, but at least I always fought for what I believed in." - Frank Yeager (a.k.a. Grey Fox)

Geez, I don't know. I particularly like Bon Jovi's "Have a nice day". That's just the one that comes to mind first. Now it's going to be bugging me to see if I can find a better one all night.

Awesome topic, bro! My regular theme song would be Lynyrd Skynyrd's Freebird!! 'Cuz not only is it my favorite song, but I yell "Freebird" whenever I hear it, I strut 'n' dance to it during the intro and the long instrumental endin', I love the South (and wish to move there in the future), and the lyrics fit my life like a glove. Plus, if I had my choice, I'd have that as my wedding song so I could call that 'my/our song' and be totally legit.

Ozzy Osbourne's Crazy Train would be my daily theme song due to how I live on a daily basis.

Some might consider Freebird a sad song, but my sad theme would probably be The Beatles' Across the Universe.

"Thought I was dead, eh? Not until I fulfill my dream!"

Angry Theme- "Bad Habit" By the Offspring.
Everytime i hear this song when im angry, i feel like driving my car into someones face!
Everyday Theme- "Times they are a changen" Bob Dylan
Yea, cause times are constantly changing, so its only suitable.
Sad Theme-"...But home is nowhere" AFI
If you've ever listened to the whole song then youd understand.
And MY THEME SONG would be "In Reverie" By Saves the Day.

You Can't Escape...
Nowhere to run...
Nowhere to hide...

I think questions like this are interesting, but I always have a hard time with them. I don't want to pick something that makes me sound pretentious, and I guess I'm not really clear on how to pick something, anyway.

Right now, though, the answer that pops into my head is "Jack and Diane" by John Cougar Mellencamp. I guess it just seems appropriate, the way the words are depressing but the tune is still upbeat.

--------------------

Veni, vidi, dormivi.

Angry theme: Dig by Mudvayne

General theme: Intro to Smoke on the Water






...thats all i can think of for the moment. More to come!

Edit

Friends strongly dissagreed with my previous choise for general theme

"Life: The deepest cut that wilt not heal. Fore it bleeds on and on as if an eternity. An endless river of blood in which death is thyne only escape. And as the tainted years pass, that escape muddles us with temptation."

Daily theme: Beach visions - The cynic project.

Angry theme: Fee Fi Fo - The Cranberries.

"You know that feeling you get when you're on a merry go 'round, and you want to jump off to make the spinning stop, but you know it'll suck when you land? I feel like that all the time"- Keno

Me on the Starcraft.

Quote

Because I'm the only one who loves that song.

Haha, no, Fools Gold rocks many a righteous casbah, bro.

My theme song's "Alive" by Pearl Jam. It's about trials, everyday crap, trauma, and through it all, a guy comes out better and still kickin'. "Faithless" by Social Distortion is in the same redemptive vein, particularly the lyrics: "Don't let your walls down / You might fall in love." For my creepy/nerdy side, maybe...Folk Implosion's "Natural One." It's just a sleazy, caution-to-the-wind song...but it's got a rollickin' bassline that's too awesome.

--------------------

It's gonna be a glorious day
I feel my luck can change

Almost any song by weezer.

Probably Everlong by the foofighters

last but not least. Lotion by the deftones

--------------------

This is my story...

I will never be a memory

Hmm, interesting topic.

Angry song: One-Winged Angel (the orchestral version). Makes me think of donning a black cape and a huge sword and running about setting fire to people... A good runner-up would be Bodies by Drowning Pool. Nice use of screaming.

Happy song: Love Song by Korn. The chorus is fun to sing along to!

General theme tune: Hammer to Fall, by Queen. It's like my life motto really - everything's just an overture to the end.
