I can't help not to be fascinated while watching a TV talk show about how the producers go about selecting the guests theme song for when the star first walks on stage. Oh sure, some are just a gimme when they play the the current sound track the celebrity is there to promote for the opening of their latest movie. Or when I rock star is featured and they play a song that the singer is famous for, or an upcoming new CD release. I just wonder what they would play as I stepped on stage.
Granted it is highly doubtful I will ever reach such acclaim that I will find how others precieve me and what my own personal theme song would be. Not having any films in the can, and no upcoming tours for this little munkay, I am unsure if I would even qualify under the "Stupid Human Trick" section of the late show. My only shot is if I have some freak accident and survive with a spike through my head. I'd be spending all my time worrying about finding a clean outfit to match the steal metal object protruding from my cranium.
I have seen "What a man, what a man, what a mighty mighty good man", used often for male guests who are accomplished in muli-areas. "We are the champions" by Queen for those of athletic ability. "I'm too sexy, too sexy for my shirt", knows overkill like no other. If I had the talent, I would have to write my own new song. But wait- it might catch on and make me famous, and apear on more talk shows so I would have to keep writing them. Nope too lazy for that.
I have a friend who is light years ahead of me on this idea. Not only does Multi-faceted Heidi have a theme song, but as compiled a soundtrack of her own tumultous life. Everything on it is time relevant to the occurrences she has lived through. She even revises it occasionally. Yeah, she is leagues deeper than me.
Considering my lack of grace, my walk on would be similar to Kramer's flailing entrance into Jerry Steinfields apartment. Residing in Minnesota, I resemble what I imagine Louie Anderson and Loni Andersons love child would look like.(Both MN natives) Impulsive as I am, Blurs "Song #2" would probley be most appropriate for me. You remember that one from the car commercial- big time drum intro-"WEEE-HOOO! I got my head checked. By a jumbo jet. It wasn't easy. But nothing is. WEE-HOO. Yeah yeah". More drums
What would be yours?
