A Long, Long Time Ago... Somebody created a thread in which somebody must make a play list of their music collection and set it to random and each song that came up would be the song that goes with an event in the movie version of that person's life story.

For example; Track 1 = The day you were born.

Other tracks would include your first day of school, first love, wedding until the final track; your Death Scene.

I'm not really expecting anybody to find the thread in question (I couldn't, using the search tool) but in the slim chance that somebody does or maybe even knows of some site which contains the rules I'd be really greatful :D

These are cool threads, but in reality everyone posts their tracks, but never really listens to anyone elses list

Well I don't think I listened to anybody elses' list but thats not why I'm asking, I just wanted to show somebody who likes games like this.

But this thread does stick out more in my memory than many games of this type does, I guess I really enjoyed it. Not only does it provide the oppertunity to nose into somebody elses music collection (and possibly gain some insight into the kind of person they are) but some of the results were really funny when read.

I particularly enjoyed creating mine but I gave up 2 thirds of the way through; by chance every song I picked was one that particularly seemed to fit the scene it was to be associated with until I reached a song I didn't even know was on my hard drive and particularly disliked. I deleted it, clicked next and the whole thing went wrong :(
