It's been a thing for a while and now that I'm back I think I'll start it up again.

Anyhow if you don't know what this is it is self explanatory. You simply pick a song that you like, that match's your character....or not.(A while ago someone was making a soundtrack for althlanas and I thought it would be a good idea to make one for myself.) So with that said let it begin!

For me I pick: The Good left Undone by Rise Against.

I had a thread like this a while ago, but it wasn't just one song, it was an entire soundtrack to fit your character. But here goes:

Elijah: "Ah Ha" - Butthole Surfers
Madison: "Knights of Cydonia" - Muse

I'm not sure about the others, but for my personal theme right now is...

Kom, Susser Todd - from Neon Genesis Evangelion

It just feels so right...

Xos - Silence and motion, by Nobuo Uematsu

Aiko - Dancing Calbrena, Nobuo Uematsu

Destrudo - Id's Theme, by Yasunori Mitsuda

Valanthe - Spirit Dance, Elvendrums

I wanted to make a soundtrack once, but it just ended up being songs from the same album, so I decided against it =P

Lillian: Strange and Beautiful, by Aqualung
Sati: Danse Macabre, by Camille Saint-Saëns
Sapna: Gamma Goblins, by Infected Mushrooms

Yeah, a pretty disparate repertoire, but it works, so I'm not complaining <3

"TNT" by ACDC

I have two for Kaia, actually. The first is "Signs of the Zodiac" by Rasputina, which doesn't really fit her much (it's far too dark), but I'm always playing it when I role-play with her for some odd reason. The second fits beautifully, and has the right feel for her. It's "Mummer's Dance" by Loreena McKennit. It's much more "earthy".

Yea I'm gonna write all of these down and Then post up a list to form a soundtrack although its gonna be about everyone's character.

PS: Nice song choice everyone.

Flogging Molly: Fuck You I'm Drunk

Too much rock and Japanese here. Take your books out because I'm bringing the class.

October, composed by Eric Whitacre, performed by the Columbus State University Wind Ensemble, and conducted by Robert Rumbelow.

Check it out on iTunes.

Echoes - Yuki Kajiura

Shell
08-15-07, 10:40 AM
The closest thing I can come up with to a theme song for Shell is "Bad Reputation" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. If anyone can think of anything better, let me know.

Thanks, Amaril. When I went to look your songs up, I found a the perfect song for this character.

Sick Sad Little World - By Incubus.

Koran
08-17-07, 01:14 AM
I think it said theme 'song' not songs...@_@ lol Whatever floats le boat.

For Koran...

Moonlight Sonata - Beethoven

Or...

Let The Bodies Hit The Floor - Drowning Pool

Why that first one? Because that's the only song which I can write to, while writing for him. =) Besides, I like that number. Why the second one? Cause it's so true.

For Tiberius...

Right Place, Wrong Time - Dr. John

For Eireann...

Wearwolves of London - Warren Zoven

Or...

Ashes - Pepper

For Komostatuo...

I Am The Highway - Chris Cornell (or whomever plays that song. I'm not entirely trusting of what my iTunes says.)

Dissinger
08-17-07, 01:59 AM
Living in Sin - Godsmack

Karuka

Am I Not Pretty Enough -- Kasey Chambers

I Am The Highway - Chris Cornell (or whomever plays that song. I'm not entirely trusting of what my iTunes says.)Half right. Chris Cornell is the lead singer of Audioslave, which made that song. He was also involved in Soundgarden and Temple of the Dog. All great bands. I haven't listened to them in a long time *goes to... buy... them off the internet*

I can't really point out a specific song for my characters, though I do tend to listen to a lot of Mudvayne, Mushroomhead, Godhead, 10 years, and 12 stones. If I had to stab a specific song out of the crowd with a pitchfork...

Maybe "Happy?" by Mudvayne... or "Santa Monica" by Theory of a Deadman.

Though I could probably kiss (But won't) the people who said Loreena (Mummers' Dance and Mystic's Dream kick ass) and Within Temptation (What've you done now, and Running up that Hill rule).

The Exies, ugly kicks ass too... Whoever said that (Too lazy to scroll up and look) gets +5 cool points.

Edit: Dissinger gets cool points too. Godsmack kicks ass. <3 Immune, off the original album.

Stand My Ground by Within Temptation is awesome...and probably fits all of my characters, in one way or other.

Good to see another fan on the forum. :)

Watermark by the Weakerthans.

It's a bit soft for a theme song for an Althanas character (or for me to listen to for that matter), but there is nothing better than the line "we're lonely and uptight, and found some lovely ways to disappoint" for Jame.

Unfortunately, Caden and Rowan are both new versions of supporting characters, so they haven't got much in the way of their own themesongs yet. For what it's worth, both've latched onto E Nomine (Mitternacht for Rowan's little zombie jaunt in Scara Brae, Deine Welt and Schwarze Sonne for Caden's involvement in the FQ).

Shell
11-19-07, 11:55 AM
The closest thing I can come up with to a theme song for Shell is "Bad Reputation" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. If anyone can think of anything better, let me know.

I found it!!!! the song that fits this character perfectly.

I love these things....Sanoë always has a million songs to go along with her, though, because I've been writing her for so long, it seems.

Sanoë - "Everything Happens To Me," by Billie Holiday, "Warning," by Angela Aki, and "Sideways," by Citizen Cope. "Cold Hard Bitch" by Jet could also work here, but that's a tad cliche. :)

Hana - "Chrysalis," by Corinne Bailey Rae, and "Cantico," by Andrea Bocelli

Rabhya - "Killer Queen," by Queen, and "Maneater," by Nelly Furtado

Evelyn - "Grace Kelly," by Mika
