Life Music

Sometimes, I wish that I had a constant soundtrack for my life. That, whenever something big happened, or just when I was walking down the street, there was the perfect song playing in my head, without the help of an i-Pod. If anything, they hinder my life soundtrack because the shuffle mode can't be relied upon to choose the right song for the moment. I know that I'm not the only one who's experienced a truly amazing moment just in time to hear "Baby Got Back."

What I need is a personal assistant who has a database of awesome songs; like the guys (or girls) who choose what song to play at a certain part of a movie (is there an official title for that?) to follow me as I go about my day and just know what song to play when.

Anyway, I heard a song recently that I would definitely play in my life soundtrack a few times a week, when I feel like nothing makes much sense, and the world seems so big, uncertain, and scary. This song would play after reading the first page of the newspaper, or watching the news, and then going outside for a walk to clear your head of the dark things. Cue song...now.
