How to kill a drifter: the soundtrack

Imaginary Movie Soundtracks are just that — the soundtracks to movies that doesn’t exist. We pick the songs, write the story, and your mind makes the movie.

Sometimes, a conversation gets your brain stuck on an idea. (Like killing someone. Um, just kidding.) Years back, I heard an argument on 96.5 the Buzz’s The Church of Lazlo about which songs were appropriate for killing a drifter, and which songs were more suited to killing a hooker. The idea of “songs to kill a drifter to” stuck in my head for weeks. Eventually, this list of songs coalesced, forming a story arc.
