Your life is a movie, or sitcom, or cartoon; however you view it. What is your theme song? If you really had an audience, what theme song would play each day as you rise? Ready, set, go…

I don’t know for sure, but I think of this.
This question has been asked many different ways here on Fluther, and throughout the years, my answer is always this.
@dxs , strange for a theme song. I haven’t heard that in a long time.
@Lawn geez, that is going waaayyyy back. Iggy Pop. Haven’t heard that name spoken in a lifetime.
@Winter_Pariah , that is one I’ve never heard.
Cool songs each and all.
I feel like this is an extremely hard question for me to answer, since different phases of life can bring different feelings, but recently at least, it’d be this one (which a friend actually introduced to me as a my theme song): Cheerleader by St. Vincent.
@Here2_4 Your link made me genuinely laugh. :D
Time, by Pink Flloyd.
Specially the 1st half:
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it’s sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you’re older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.
[edit]
@BlackSwanEffect One of the greatest voices in all of rock n roll silenced way too early.
@Hypocrisy_Central Agreed. Respect for your choice also – High Hopes is possibly my favourite song of all, with Time not far behind.
I don’t have one because I feel that would be pretentious.
Don’t know if I think of this as my personal theme song, but for some reason I’ve always had a special with this Bob Seager song, Roll Me Away.
make that “special connection”
If there’s my anthem, I bet it can change really fast, and for now, maybe “some nights”.
@wsxwh111 Can you provide a link for that “some nights”?
“Truckin’” by the Grateful Dead.
” Lately it occurs to me what a long, strange trip it’s been.”
Also, “Brown Eyed Girl” by Van the Man.
