<p>My ex introduced me to this concept a few months ago. What's the one song that most embodies your values, goals, or personality?</p>
<p>Mine is Marche</a> Slave by Tchaikovsky, but it used to be the</a> overture to The Magic Flute. It's the story of the downtrodden rising up against their oppressors and becoming a glorious nation. It tells my story - how I rose from an instrument of the system to a warrior of a cause worth fighting for. At this point in my life, I'm at 8:36.</p>
<p>My ex has been through a lot of hardship. His (very appropriate) theme song is "I</a> Can Go The Distance" from the movie Hercules. He knows that whatever happens to him, he will be strong.</p>
<p>I guess you just listen to a bunch of music until you find a piece that really resonates with you? I dunno. To be honest, Marche Slave doesn’t really fit me that well either.</p>
<p>If all functions can be approximated by a sequence of polynomials, I bet all personalities can be arbitrarily approximated by a sequence of theme songs :D</p>
<p>Srsly though, sometime during this past week, I realized I’ve come to a post-art stage in my life. I still listen to music, but with a different understanding of my relation to that music.</p>
