It's meme time!
I've been meaning to do this one. Most recent that reminded me was Cori.
Choose one stanza from a song that best suits your characters!
Orlando
I want to have the same last dream again
The one where I wake up, and I'm alive
Just as the four walls close me within
My eyes are opened up with pure sunlight
I'm the first to know, my dearest friends
Even if your hope has burned with time
Anything that's dead shall be regrown
And your vicious pain, your warning sign
you will be fine
-"The Adventure," Angels and Airwaves
This song is so perfect for Orlando that it's hard to believe it wasn't written for him.
Kyon
I'm so cool, too bad I'm a loser
I'm so smart, too bad I can't get anything figured out
I'm so brave, too bad I'm a baby
I'm so fly, that's probably why it feels just like I'm falling for the first time
-"Falling for the First Time," Barenaked Ladies
BnL suit Kyon so well.
Bourne
I had to close down everything
I had to close down my mind
Too many things to cover me
Too much can make me blind
I've seen so much in so many places
So many heartaches, so many faces
So many dirty things
You couldn't believe
-"Extreme Ways," Moby
Like I could choose anything else.
Fakir
Come now my sweet little breathing boy
I'm listening hard to your heart
It's as strong as a lion's boy
Let's leave here and make a new start
I remember once you said lying in this bed
The past is dead
Every day is a one act play
Without an ending
Without an ending
-"Stella's Tarantella," Over the Rhine
I want to do a Tutu amv to this.
Wilson
Doctor Robert, you're a new and better man
He helps you to understand
He does ev'rything he can, Doctor Robert
-"Doctor Robert," The Beatles
It's too perfect.
Sunshine
Give me strength to find
The road that's lost in me
Give me time to heal
And build myself a dream
Give me eyes to see
The world surrounding me
Give me strength
To be only me
-"Give me Strength," Over the Rhine
The lyrics to this song fit Sunshine wonderfully. However, the tune doesn't have the right color for her, which is why it's not on the fst I'm making. I thought I'd include it here instead.
Door
Broken windows and empty hallways
A pale dead moon in the sky streaked with gray
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
-"I Think it's Going to Rain Today," Randy Newman
Randy Newman works very well with Neverwhere.
Tanyuu
We've got these chains that hang around our necks
People want to strangle us with them before we take our first breath
Afraid of change, afraid of staying the same
When temptation calls, we just look away
-"What a Good Boy," Barenaked Ladies
This song also has the distinction of being used in an episode of Homicide.
Lyra
And I'll be everything
That I want to be
I am confidence in insecurity
I am the voice yet waiting to be heard
I'll shoot the shot bang
That you'll hear 'round the world
And I'm a one girl revolution
-"One Girl Revolution," Superchic(k)
It speaks the truth.
And of course Beast comes with his own soundtrack. :P
