I will, I will, ROCK YOU!

This is becoming a meme, me posting memes.

Post a comment, and I'll reply with your theme song.
I'll even explain why.
If I don't really know you, I'll make up something and expect you to change your life accordingly!

I can't rival John's extension of the idea by telling you why the Shaft Theme Song fits you, but I gotta do something.

I'll also tell you which famous person would play you in a movie of my life!
But no reason.

Ohhh first on line....

Easy, even having never met!
Psychic TV - Godstar (7)
Sounds like firstgen surf-pop, but really has a subversive undercurrent and critique of culture, and given the various connections...may actually seem sinister to some. But really, it's playful.

A younger Kevin Spacey.

Heh

Rush - Red Barcetta.
A song about defiance of authority, freedom and just kinda cutting loose. Some of the best road music around, and only admits partially to how bad-ass it is.

Chuck Norris.

Lloyd Cole - "Downtown" -
It's a growly deep down rumble song, but if you really listen, it's about vulnerability.

Depeche Mode - Pimpf
Dramatic and strong sounding, while lyricless, but it's obviously just a lead-in to something more complex.

Jerry O'Connell.

One Dove - Breakdown. Takes on elements from several genres, in homage and appropriation, remixes them and re-presents them in a light ethereal manner while still retaining vocal strength. The way it stands out from the surrounding tracks seems to not fit at first, until the album is listened to in its entirety.

I know I've mentioned this before, but a "Four Weddings..."-era Kristen Scott Thomas.

Morcheeba - Bullet Proof. While pretty much a chill track, it's not something to put you to sleep, as there's both energy and tension in the mix. A persistent nod to James Bond, too.

Michael Palin.

Thievery Corporation - The Hong Kong Triad. Of course, being TC, it's stylin' and slick, and this particular track seems extra smooth, and implies some undercurrent criminality. :D

Ethan Hawke, really fucking tan.

Forgive me, but what really comes to mind is "Lovecats" by The Cure-
not only because of Damascus, but also because it's playful and silly...but they really, really mean it.

Laura Dern.

Mercury Rev - Opus 40. Easy association, but in particular, it's the centerpiece of an album which I used to listen to all the freakin' time. It's outright spacerock, but still plays with the genre while presenting it to a newer generation of listeners.

Ben Kingsley (much younger, obviously)

Bjork - Cocoon. Delicate song, with little light edges, but it really wants something it doesn't seem to let itself have...I think this is intentional.

Bjork, again.

Urge Overkill - Sister Havana. While they were caught up in the surge in the 90's for "alternative music", they were outright rock music, and underrated for it.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman.
