The Kither, The Rocker, The FREAK!

A look inside the screwed up, but always entertaining life of Andi M.

Hello good people of the internet and KITH community,

School has started back for all the good people of Savannah and yes, once more life blows. Not really looking forward to the school year, just looking forward to fact that I won't be going back after this year!
In other things to occupy my time, I've done something I've wanted to do for a long time. Create a soundtrack!
Now, a long time ago, I wrote this movie script (which thankfully, is known of by many and read by a few) and I had a soundtrack for that, but I lost it and it wasn't all the great anyway. My second attempt at it is for this wrestling fantic stoyline type thing that me and my friend Anita have been writing for a little over four years. I got the bright I idea while writing a story part and listening to the radio. As I was writing and listening, I realized how greatly the song went along with the scene I was writing. IT WAS BRILLIANT and it didn't talk long to come up with some great music for this thing either. I changed a lot of the tracks a million times and changed the track list more times than I care to remember, but in the end, everything came out great. Now, I've got to admit, a few of these songs have been or currently are on hit soundtracks. Perfect example, "Vindicated" by Dashboard Confessional which was one of the first songs on the soundtrack...and the song that gave me this great idea. Great song, but it's on the Spiderman 2 soundtrack. But, you know what, I think it sounds better on mine! ;) I've got 15 songs in all. Some of them need explaining as to why I picked them, but most of them have the feeling and vibe of the story in them which is intense and dramatic mixed with comedic moments and touching ones. Let's just say that if you had never even really read any of the storyline, and just knew about the characters, you could figure it all out by the end of the CD. It's that good and I usually don't brag. I wanted themes for my two main characters, which is Anita's character, Eris, and my character, Karree (if you read it right, you'll realize I got it from Digimon). I haven't been in touch with Anita for some time now so, I only picked a theme for Karree which I think I did a pretty good job of wrapping up her personality in the song I picked. I guess Eris will have hers in Volume 2. In anycase, the moment you've all been waiting for, the TRACKLIST!

1. Hoobastank- "Out Of Control"
2. Liz Phair- "Why Can't I"
3. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs- "Maps"
4. Powerman 5000- "Nobody's Real"
5. Evanescence- "Going Under"
6. 311- "Love Song"
7. The White Stripes- "Aluminum"
8. Junior Senior- "Shake Your Cocomuts"
9. Dashboard Confessional- "Vindicated"
10. Craig N orthey- "Slow Motion"
11. Liz Phair- "Extraordinary" (Karree's Theme)
12. Andrew W.K.- "She is Beautiful"
13. Staind- "Epiphany"
14. The B-52s- "Love Shack"
15. Story Of the Year- "Anthem of Out Dying Day"

As you can see, the soundtrack is pretty intense, just like the storyline is. Also, if you'll notice, Liz Phair is the only artist that appears twice. She truly does have a song for everything, and I didn't want to use two song, but when it came down to it, I couldn't use anyone else to express what I wanted to thru song.

Well, that all for now. If anyone wants to know more about the storyline, email me and I will try to explain it in 2500 words or less. My email is andi_kith@yahoo.com.

Later Dayz!
Andi
