It worked pretty well until the wedding, but then, I used the psychedelic and '60s oldies radio stations rather than the music on my Winamp playlist, so some of them aren't even things that I would normally listen to.

Hmmm. That is probably the worst soundtracked "movie" of all time. None of that matched up except possibly the Beck tune as the final battle. And far too much 80's party music!
