If you life were a movie, what a song that would likely play during a "love at first sight" scene?

Question

If it's hard to choose, then you can pick many or pick the first viable song that pops up in your mind. So many come to mind for me. Photo by "Alexandru Zdrobău" on Unsplash

Not sure about the love at first sight part. But I can relate to the falling deeply part.

For my first major crush, the song was "Never Knew Lonely" by Vince Gill. For the next gal, it was "Some Things Never Change" by Tim Magraw. Though, "There's Only One" by Yankee Grey was a close contender. For the gal after that, her two songs were "Every Other Time" by LFO and "You Got it Bad" by Usher. She was Emily, the ghetto redhead.

After I left high school, most gals that caught my eye didn't get theme songs. Though, one gal I was interested in got "Photograph" by Nickelback. Shortly after that, she proved to be a total bitch, and I dropped her like a hot potato.

The next to get her own song, I won't say her name, for it's cursed. But two song parodies were written for her. The first by Every Ape and His Brother was a Finger Eleven "Paralyzer" parody dubbed "Slaughterized," which compared her to Dahmer. (She REALLY got on my bad side!!!) The next was an N*Sync parody: "Die Die Die!!!", where she picks a fight with the wrong man, turns the town into a war zone, and loses. Those are more hate and anger ballads than love, but scorned and betrayed love, perhaps.

After that was Merre. Her song was "Broken" by Lifehouse. The version off their 2005 album. I played it for her the last time I got to spend any time with her. One year before she died. She finally understood how much I loved her. And felt guilt, because it took her until she was dying to realize what my true intentions were ten years earlier, and how she took me for granted. But she was relieved that I showed no judgement in my voice. Only relief that I got to see her again, even if it were the last time I'd ever get the chance.

All who are unfamiliar with that song, I recommend a listen. The next gal's song was "Will Do" by TV on the Radio. The gal after that, her song was Gwiyomi / Kiyomi. The next three, I couldn't decide a theme for them.

Then came Sunny. Hers was "The Ocean" by Mike Perry. She even used it in an ad for a robot her company was selling. But I should've known that her being in China meant we were doomed. When outside interference heated up, and we were sparsely able to keep in touch anymore, my second theme for her became "Faded" by Alan Walker. That was the "I know things are doomed, but I'm not ready to let her go yet" song.

For my fictional works, I haven't given love themes much thought yet. Though, for Ciem: Inferno, the autumnal atmosphere theme and romantic theme for Candi and Danny's doomed romance is "Aitherios" by Axl Rosenberg. (The action and environmental destruction theme is "Ascendence.")

Soundtracks are tricky. But one pick I haven't deviated from since high school: if "The Gray Champion: Freedom's Apparition" (it'd be like a colonial Massachusetts / modern patriotic version of the first Thor movie) ever got adapted to the silver screen, I'd want the first non-original score song in the end credits to be "Freedom Fighter" by Creed. It fits John Domeck's character perfectly.

I'm almost the polar opposite of the type that falls in love at first sight. I tend to develop the initial attraction beyond the basic caveman "Hubba Bubba" for women through conversations. So it's kind of a tough question for me. If we can just reduce it though to attraction though, like when I'm drunk and single and see a hot girl twerking in front of me at a nightclub, maybe this:

Whitney Houston, Saving All My Love, for my huge girl crush when I was 13. She never knew, I was scared she'd dump me as a friend, and it was just too lovely being with her to risk that. She's married and we're not in touch but I keep myself in the know through other friends. I'm terrible because I keep hoping I'll get news that she's divorced.

"Black Dog" by Led Zeppelin.

This is a lame video with incorrect lyrics but the only one that I could find that was not the shit "remastered" version. (Rule of thumb with music: If it's remastered, it's shit.)

There's this bollywood hindi song called Emotional fool, it's about how the main character is obviously, an emotional fool. That'd pretty much describe my chances at a love life.

Electric love is good, but that was already in the background of a different moment in my life. I think the background music for this moment could be A Thousand Years

This one. Specifically the Dan Band version lol.

I don't believe in love at first sight. Maybe if you have fallen in love without seeing each other like through texts and such, but otherwise I don't think you know enough about the other person to love them. Typically you already love them before seeing them in those situations though.

Guanfei · Answer

This one, because I know she will never love me, and my mind will make sure I'll know and feel bad about it.
