One thing I like to do is take a number of (presumably) unrelated pop songs and put them together to form a coherent story.
For example:
*Jesse's Girl by Rick Springfield
*The Weakness in Me by Joan Armatrading
*My Best Friend's Girl by The Cars
Guy has best friend, and girlfriend. Guy's friend goes after girlfriend. Girlfriend falls for friend, leaves guy for friend. Guy laments.
Another:
*Breaking the Girl by The Red Hot Chili Peppers
*Under My Thumb by The Rolling Stones
*Free Girl Now by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Emotionally stunted man breaks down his formerly vibrant girlfriend. Guy rejoices at her newly submissive attitude. Girl comes to her senses, leaves stupid jerk, and her friends rejoice.
Does anyone else do this? Try it, it's kinda fun. (Makes for cool mix tapes, too.)
