I have shamelessly stolen this from Liberty who found it on Pinterest – in reality my soundtrack would just be *wimper*gurglegurgle…braaaaaaaaiins *shuffle shuffle* because I suck at running, hiding and fighting so it would be over in about three seconds…

Ah well, iTunes on shuffle and at the ready, here we go:

#1 Wake Me Up When September Ends, Green Day

That works…

#2 Beer or Gasoline, Chris Young

That, however, does not.

#3 Marshmallow Attack! (Frozen OST), Christophe Beck

Appropriately dramatic and sort of chase-y, I’ll take it.

#4 Bye Bye Love, The Everly Brothers

I think my iTunes is cheating. Aside from the ‘She sure looks happy’ lyrics at the start, this works!

#5 Open Your Eyes, Snow Patrol

I can’t decide if this one works or not. The opening line works – ‘All this feels strange and untrue,/And I won’t waste a minute without you.’

#6 The Show, Lenka

‘I’m just a little bit caught in the middle/Life is a maze and love is a riddle/I don’t know where to go I can’t do it alone I’ve tried/And I don’t know why.’  Nice and upbeat and kind of on topic.

#7 The Mighty Quinn, Manfred Mann

Nope, can’t make this one work – it’s just too happy…

#8 Hero, Chad Kroeger (Featuring Josey Scott)

‘I am so high, I can hear heaven./I am so high, I can hear heaven./Oh but heaven, no heaven don’t hear me.’

#9 Heartbeat, Scouting For Girls

I think, iTunes, I’d be skipping more than one. (I told you it was cheating, I didn’t even read the list of what the songs were for until after I did the shuffle and wrote the list…)

#10 Awake and Alive, Skillet

The opening lyrics are appropriate and at least it leaves me with a little sense of hope I guess…

‘I’m at war with the world and they/Try to pull me into the dark/ I struggle to find my faith/ As I’m slippin’ from your arms/It’s getting harder to stay awake/ And my strength is fading fast…’
