Soundtrack to My Life

Your Life: The Soundtrack

Okay, been tagged by Ess. Surprisingly, this has been a dream come true-REALLY! I've always wanted to be the person who decides the soundtrack for a film (even if the only time it's happened was a group interview project where we made good use of Justin Adams' 'Desert Road' and Thievery Corporation's 'Khalghi Stomp' for the end credits! ) I wonder if there's a career in that...hmmm..I mean I have the qualifications. Come see my iTunes.
