If your life was a movie, what would the soundtrack be?

Taking the lead from some of our friends' blogs, Bill and I decided to try this little iPod game. It will give you an idea of the incredibly ecclectic musical taste found in our home. And as others have found out, there is a certain amount of embarrassment that goes with actually admitting this is what's on our iPods.

Here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button

Our iPod-selected songs are:
