From theme song to soundtrack

The theme song discussion from earlier this week prompted lots of office discussion. What's your theme song? Do you have different songs for different days? Can one song really define a person? Do you agree with another person's assessment of their theme song? Is a person's song choice rooted in their high school years or does it define them now? The discussion was too lengthy to post here but we did come up with some theme songs for a few co-workers. (Ride of the Valkyries to describe a particularly fierce individual; Jai Ho for another.) It was also agreed that a soundtrack is more appropriate than one song to describe a person. A soundtrack encompasses the emotion of different days, different moods, different times and themes in a person's life. Plus ... after all, doesn't everyone deserve their very own soundtrack?!

So there it is. Take a look at my iPod and you'll now see "Jess' Soundtrack" right there with all the other playlists. Woo hoo! It has lots of songs (lots!) and I'm starting to whittle them down to a respectable, oh, 20 to 25. Here are a few snippets compliments of LaLa:
