If someone were to make a movie about me, for whatever reason, I would want the following songs on the soundtrack. They're not necessarily my favourite songs in the whole world, but they're songs that I feel accurately represent me. Some of them wouldn't really work as a soundtrack as such, but never mind that - this little exercise is more about trying to represent myself with a small selection of songs.
Without further ado:
1. Supertramp – The Logical Song
This song is pretty much my theme song.
2. Pet Shop Boys – It's a Sin
3. Scooter – How Much Is The Fish
This song makes no sense, but it makes me happy and all pumped up. Plus, it's been following me since I was pretty small.
4. The Beatles – Fool On The Hill
5. The Beatles – Nowhere Man
It might be a bit redundant to include both this song and Fool On The Hill, but they are actually quite different songs. Both this and Fool On The Hill have been following me for quite some time.
6. The Seat Belts – Real Folk Blues
The theme song of a love story.
7. Bob Dylan – Positively 4th Street
The theme song of another love story.
8. The Beatles - Here Comes The Sun
The theme song of yet another love story. I'll leave it up to you to figure out which is which.
8. Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory – Pure Imagination
9. Aladdin – Friend Like Me
I know, I'm totally full of myself.
10. Gorillaz – Some Kind of Nature
11. Gorillaz – Revolving Doors
...Gorillaz song lyrics as a rule make no sense, so I'm not really sure if these songs say anything really applicable or meaningful, but I like the Gorillaz and their melodies, if nothing else, need to be on the soundtrack.
12. Dr. Steel – We Decide
Wouldn't at all work as a soundtrack for anything, I think, but I like the message.
13. Queen – Bohemian Rhapsody
14. Per Gessle – Farväl Angelina
I know the original is in English and by Bob Dylan, but I really like the Swedish version. Also, I feel like there maybe should be at least one song on this list in my actual native language.

By empirical investigation it has been concluded that any movie about a Swede should contain "Jag går och fiskar" as part of the soundtrack, as it is the only song in Swedish that all Swedes know :P
You make a good point.
I would kill whoever tries to put that song on the soundtrack of my life. Okay, seriously, not kill because that would put me in prison, but I would do anything within my power and below the legal radar to ruin that person's life in every possible way.
We can put it at the very end of the credits, so that no one ever notices it :P
..Are you saying more people know "Jag går och fiskar" than "Sommartider"?
Because I doubt that.
