- Opening Credits: Beastie Boys – Ch-Check It Out (Successfully establishes the fact that the life story of MDJ Superstar is bad-ass and most definitely not pansy-assed at all!)
- Waking Up: Explosions In The Sky – Look Into The Air (I have never even heard this song at all, and cannot fathom what it’s doing on my iTunes…)
- The Big Move: Paramore – Crushcrushcrush (This is the part of the movie where you start having nagging doubts about MDJ’s sexuality…)
- Falling in Love: Devendra Banhart – Lazy Butterfly (Eminently acceptable…)
- First Kiss: Ladytron – Black Plastic (The scene: A drunken tangle of limbs in the backseat of a ’67 Chevy parked behind 7-11)
- Fight Scene: Belle & Sebastian – Act of the Apostle II (This is obviously a very long, slow, boring fight scene consisting solely of one well-placed 2×4 shot to MDJ Superstar’s very large nutsack, followed by his slow-motion collapse onto the floor)
- Breaking Up: Lamb – Cotton Wool (Liek, OMFGZ! This is the first song that really works for me!)
- Getting Back Together: Everything But The Girl – Love Is Strange (And HERE is when the movie reveals it’s shocking plot twist – MDJ Superstar is GAY!!!)
- Secret Love: Beck – Loser (Argh. This hurts because it’s true!!!)
- Life’s Okay: Thievery Corporation – Samba Tranquille (Because anything set to Thievery Corp becomes okay!)
- Mental Breakdown: Avenue Q – Special (Great. I had no idea I would have Lucy The Slut serenading my first schizophrenic attack…)
- Out Being Crazy With Friends: The Gorillaz – Don’t Get Lost In Heaven (Our definition here of “out being crazy” is sneaking in an extra serving of juice at the Big Gulp station at 7-11 while nobody is looking)
- Driving: Live – Selling The Drama (And my maximum speed apparently never exceeds 30kph in this movie of my life…)
-
Flashback: Wicked – What Is This Feeling? (Learning for today – MDJ, you have entirely too much Broadway on your iTunes! Grow a pair, man!)
-
Happy Dance: Honeymoon – Phoenix (I will not argue with this)
-
Regretting: Eurythmics – There Must Be An Angel Playing With My Heart (At this moment, I am regretting having the gosh-darned Eurythmics on my playlist…)
-
Spending a Night Alone: Jeff Buckley – Haven’t You (AMAZING.)
-
Death Scene: Feist – Past In Present (Who wouldn’t want to have Feist singing to you as you die, preferably clad in a blue plaid miniskirt and no underwear?)
-
End Credits: Imogen Heap – The Moment I Said It (And here, we obviously end on a low note.)
