SOUNDTRACK MEME



This is a BIT more goofy than the usual memes on this journal, BUT! I actually always find it SUPER HELPFUL when posting to have character/situation songs in mind, be it to set a mood, to make a scene work, or just to get me writing. Music has helped define some games for me! Finally, it's a fun way to discover new bands.

SO! Here's how it works

> Post with your character
> Other people comment with songs that remind them of that character (links to places you can listen = preferable. justification = optional)
> ???
> Profit!

I'm also going to put a GENERAL GAMES SONGS post at the top for posts that in general fit Save the Earth as a whole. Woooooo!

Show Me How to Live - Audioslave

"In the early dawn,
Moving right along,
I couldn't buy an eyeful of sleep
And in the aching night,
Under satellite,
I was not received
With the stolen parts
A telephone in my heart
Someone get me a priest
To put my mind to bed
This ringing in my head -
Is this a cure, or is this a disease?

Nail in my hand from my creator
You gave me life - now show me how to live!"

Starts With One - The Shiny Toy Guns

"Starts with one, I can't feel
It's all in your mind, anyway
I can't heal
Make me feel this way
Now there's two, I can't see
I've never felt this way
I can't feel
Anything anyway

Let's show them the only way
Let's show them our hearts"

Worker Bees - Billy Talent
For the invaders and the death of Paul Ben.

"A pollination coming from the west
And in a flash, we will invade your nest
Supply of honey flowing bottomless
Play by our rules, or you'll be powerless

And we'll march along with our blindfolds on
And we'll ride the rails with our pistols drawn
Can the lord above forgive what we've done?
Can we fight to save our souls?"

... I don't know that STG song :O Do they have a new album??? :: races to go find out ::

[scramasax]

It's actually from their very first as far as I know, the same album as Le Disko! Either way, it probably wouldn't be one of the easily-just-known ones.

[professorwolf]

Huh. I have that album. Now I have to go look for that song cuz the lyrics are not ringing familiar to me :|

Fun fact: I used to go to church with the drummer of STG :D

IT IS SO NOT ON THIS ALBUM I HAVE D= I AM SAD. ... oh wait. There is is. Looking at the wrong album ftw? :: facepalms ::

[scramasax]

At least it's sorted out. XD It's still certainly my favorite of theirs.

And oh ha! Did you realize that a while after, or was that how you first heard of them?
