This is old stuff, but it still says it for me.

Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity

Oh yeah what were living in (let me tell ya)
It a wonder man can eat at all
When things are big
That should be small
Who can tell what magic spells well be doing for us.
And Im giving all my love to this world
Only to be told
I cant see, I cant breathe
No more will we be
And nothings gonna change the way we live
Cos we can always take and never give
And now that things are changing for the worse,
See, its a crazy world were living in
And I just cant see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these

Futures made of virtual insanity
Now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting of our new technology
Oh now theres no sound for we all live underground

And Im thinking in what a mess were in
Hard to know when to begin
If I could slip the sicly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother can choose the color of her child
Thats not natures way
Well thats what they said yesterday
Theres nothing left to do but pray
I think its time I found a new religion
Waoh its so insane to synthesize another strain
Theres something in these futures that we have to be told.

Futures made of virtual insanity
Now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting of our new technology

Oh now theres no sound for we all live underground
Now theres no sound if we all live underground
And now its virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, theres nothing so bad, I know yeah
Instrumental break
Oh, this virtual insanity, were living in,
Has got to change, yeah
Things will never be the same
And I cant go on
While were living in oh, oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world has got to change
Cos I just, I just cant keep going on, it was virtual,
Virtual insanity that were living in, that were living in
That virtual insanity is what it is

Futures made of virtual insanity
Now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting of our new technology
Oh theres no sound for we all live underground

Living - virtual insanity
Living - virtual insanity
Living - virtual insanity
Living - virtual insanity

Virtual insanity is what were living in
Rust never Sleeps.
Nothing is what Rocks Dream of.

Brynja: Careful with That Axe, Eugene
I very much like this music for her. Youtube should turn up Pink Floyd playing it, if you think you might like to hear it.

With a change in her out look, Morgan needs a change of song. So…
Samael: Shining Kingdom
I see this as a song about someone who has been looking for something and eventually looked inside themselves for answers.

And Grovel… I was listening to some random music on the way to work last week and something came up that made me think YES! This is what I want for Grovel.
The theme to Enter The Dragon! Oh yes! Grovel could so be Bruce Lee and you know it. All that funk and jive and kung-fu. Grovel may have to multi class….
Grovel puts the P in swimming pool.

Hmmmmm.... mind you, not that Tinker could carry tune in a bucket with a lid nailed down on it, but... heh. I'd say she had a couple songs, really....

October Project -- Paths Of Desire

I have traveled the paths of desire
gathering flowers and carrying fire
Raising a grave to the reasons behind me
Looking for strength as you live to remind me
I'm drawn to you
I'm caught in you

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
The path to the web becomes deeper and wider
I dream of the silk that is tangled inside you
And know that I want to be somewhere beside you
I'm drawn to you
I'm caught in you

In your eyes, All of the promises. All the lies
Will you keep all the promises In your eyes?

I am crossing the bridges of sorrow
Empty with yearning and full of tomorrow
The river is high and the bridges are burning
I know I've been hurt but I keep on returning
I'm drawn to you
I'm caught in you

In your eyes, All of the promises. All the lies
Will you keep all the promises In your eyes?

I have traveled the paths of desire
following smoke and remembering fire
The night is falling, the path is receding
I don't need to see it to know where it's leading

In your eyes, All of the promises. All the lies
Will you keep all the promises In your eyes?




The Indigo Girls -- Hand Me Downs

Ive taken so many down
Ive helped them all to dismount
Ive followed so many down
I take their hand me downs

All with hope, All with hope
That emptiness brings fullness
And loss of love brings wholeness
All with hope, All with hope
That emptiness brings fullness
And loss of love brings wholeness
To us all

Everything that I believe, Crawls from underneath the streets
Everything I truly love, Comes from somewhere far above
Everything that I believe Is wrong with you is wrong with me
Everything I truly love, I love in you and I love in me

So give me hope, Give me hope
That emptiness brings fullness
And loss of love brings wholeness
To us all

You swear you cant swim the river,But I saw you running to jump in
I swore Id never be your sinner, Til I held your sin
Hand me downs

Now you ask me why Im here
The same as you, Im scared - its fear
Ive become the beggar now, And youve become the saint somehow
Twist the words and place the blame, And tell me now arent we the same
Tripping in our yellow feet, Checking underneath our sheets

For some hope, Give me hope
That emptiness brings fullness
And loss of love brings wholeness
Give me hope, Give me hope
That emptiness brings fullness
And loss of love brings wholeness
To us all

The full song from Gildan's Sig quote. Fits him pretty well, even though it is (gasp!) a country song. Forgive me.

Good As I Once Was, by Toby Keith:

She said, "I've seen you in here before."
I said, "I've been here a time or two."
She said, "Hello, my name is Bobby Jo
meet my twin sister Betty Lou
And we're both feeling kinda wild tonight
And you're the only cowboy in this place
And if you're up for a rodeo
I'll put a big Texas smile on your face."
I said, "Girls,"

[Chorus]
I aint as good as I once was
I got a few years on me now
But there was a time, back in my prime
When I could really lay it down
And if you need some love tonight
Then I might have just enough
I ain't as good as I once was
But I'm as good once, as I ever was

I still hang out with my best friend Dave
I've known him since we were kids at school
last night he had a few shots
Got in a tight spot, hustlin' a game of pool
With a couple of redneck boys
One great big bad biker man
I heard David yell across the room
"Hey buddy, how 'bout a helping hand?"
I said, "Dave,"

[Chorus]
I aint as good as I once was
My, how the years have flown
But there was a time, back in my prime
When I could really hold my own
But if you wanna fight tonight
Guess those boys dont look all that tough
I aint as good as I once was
But I'm as good once, as I ever was

I used to be hell on wheels
Back when I was a younger man
Now my body says, "You can't do this, boy"
But my pride says, "Oh, yes you can!"

I ain't as good as I once was
That's just the cold hard truth
I still throw a few back, talk a little smack
When I'm feelin bullet proof
So don't double dog dare me now
'Cause I'd have to call your bluff

I ain't as good as I once was
But i'm as good once, as I ever was
May not be good as I once was
But i'm as good once, as I ever was
Gildan: "I'm not as good as I once was, but i'm as good once as I ever was."

"I'm stubborn as those garbage bags that time cannot decay; I'm junk, but I'm still holding up this little wild bouquet." -Leonard Cohen, "Democracy"

I have two songs to add for Aria and Luke.

"Happiness" from the movie "Scrooge"

They say happiness is a thing you can't see
A thing you can't touch
I disagree
Happiness is standing beside me
I can see him
He can see me
Happiness is whatever you want it to be
Happiness is a high hill
Will I find it?
Yes, I will
Happiness is a tall tree
Can I climb it?
Watch and see
They say happiness is the folly of fools
Pity poor me
One of the fools
Happiness is smiling upon me
Walking my way
Sharing my day
Happiness is whatever you want it to be
Happiness is a bright star
Are we happy?
Yes, we are
Happiness is a clear sky
Give me wings and let me fly
Let me fly
For happiness is whatever you want it to be
Yes, happiness is whatever you want it to be

Here is one for Brynja and Alexis.
I AMOK - Diary of Dreams
I put so much faith into you
I trusted everybody except myself

Tales of your behaviour
Like paper in a book
You try to be my saviour
How come you can not see the truth?

I Am-oK, if I Am-oK, you see...
I Am-oK, if I’m-oK
I put so much faith into you
I trusted everybody except myself

Don't se such a stranger -
I Am-oK, But you're in danger
I walked for years to get this far
I have to tell you once again...

I Am-oK, if I Am-oK, you see...
I Am-oK, if I’m-oK
I put so much faith into you
I trusted everybody except myself

You say my dreams have all turned grey
How ignorant of you to say
You claim that you can feel my pain
Insane of you to stay

I Am-oK, if I Am-oK, you see...
I Am-oK, if I’m-oK

Another Lexy theme song, adapted slightly from the original "I'm Just A Girl Who Cain't Say No", from the musical "Oklahoma". :)

I'm Just A Guy Who Can't Say No:

It ain't so much a question of not knowing what to do,
I've known what's right and wrong since I was ten.
I've heard a lot of stories and I reckon they are true
About how guys are put upon by men.
I know I mustn't fall into the pit,
But when I'm with a feller...I forget!

I'm just a guy who can't say no,
I'm in a terrible fix!
I always say "come on, le's go"
Just when I oughtta say nix!
When a person tries to kiss a guy,
I know he oughtta give his face a smack.
But as soon as someone kisses me,
I somehow, sorta, wanta kiss him back!
I'm just a fool when lights are low,
I can't be prissy and quaint.
I ain't the type that can faint. ((sung with a straight face...))
How can I be what I ain't?
I can't say no!

What you going to do when a feller gets flirty, and starts to talk...purty?
What you going to do?
S'posin' that he says that your lips are like cherries, or roses, or berries?
What you going to do?
S'posin' that he says that you're sweeter than cream,
And he's gotta have cream or die?
What you going to do when he talks that way?
Spit in his eye?

I'm just a guy who can't say no,
Can't seem to say it at all.
I hate to disappoint a beau
When he is paying a call.
For awhile I act refined and cool
Sitting on the velveteen settee,
Then I think of that old golden rule
And do for him what he would do for me!
I can't resist a romeo in a sombrero and chaps,
Soon as I sit on their laps
Something inside of me snaps!
I can't say no!

I'm just a guy who can't say no,
Kissin's my favourite food.
With or without the mistletoe
I'm in a holiday mood.
Other guys are coy and hard to catch,
But other guys ain't havin' any fun.
Every time I lose a wrestling match,
I have a funny feeling that I won!
Though I can feel the undertow
I never make a complaint
Till it's too late for restraint,
Then when I want to I caint!
I can't say no!

Lexy re Gilles:

"Forever Autumn"

The summer sun is fading as the year grows old
And darker days are drawing near
The winter winds will be much colder
Now you're not here

I watch the birds fly south across the Autumn sky
And one by one they disappear
I wish that I was flying with them
Now you're not here

Like the sun through the trees you came to love me
Like a leaf on the breeze you blew away

Through Autumn's golden gown we used to kick our way
You always loved this time of year
Those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now
Cause you're not here

A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
As if to hide a lonely tear
My life will be forever Autumn
Cause you're not here

So!

Im on the bus listening to my mp3 player and a song comes up that strikes me as just perfect for Malik. I’ve had a hard time thinking of one for him, as I don’t think of Malik musically, but here it is

Cradle of Filth: Thank God for the Suffering

It’s a long song so I wont quote all the lyrics, but here is a sample:
They warred with life itself
And in those frozen moments won
From grief that creeps to wreathe the sun
In drapes inwove with deathshead wing
I thank God for the suffering

And I thank God for the suffering
As I still burn
For Her return
I would make my peace with everything
OK, so Malik doesn’t pine away for some lost love… but I still like it and it implies how much he hates all your characters :P

So, in the van this morning I heard this song and it seemed to fit Lexy re Scel. I found out it's by Adam Lambert (who is probably super famous but I'd never heard of him) and it's called "If I Had You":

So I got my boots on, got the right 'mount of leather
And I'm doing me up with a black color liner
And I'm workin' my strut but I know it don't matter
All we need in this world is some love
There's a thin line 'tween the dark side and the light side baby tonight
It's a struggle gotta rumble trying to find it

But if I had you, that would be the only thing I'd ever need
Yeah if I had you, then money fame and fortune never could compete
If I had you, life would be a party it'd be ecstasy
Yeah, if I had you
You-y-y-y-y-you
You-y-y-y-y-you
You-y-y-y-y-you
If I had you

From New York to LA getting high rock n' rollin
Get a room trash it up 'til it's ten in the morning
Girls in stripper heels, boys rolling in Maseratis
What they need in this world is some love
There's a thin line tween a wild time and a flat line baby tonight
It's a struggle, gotta rumble tryin' to find it

But if I had you, that would be the only thing I'd ever need
Yeah if I had you, then money fame and fortune never could compete
If I had you, life would be a party it'd be ecstasy
Yeah, if I had you
You-y-y-y-y-you
You-y-y-y-y-you
You-y-y-y-y-you
If I had you

The flashing of the lights
It might feel so good
But I've got you stuck on my mind, yeah!
The fashion and the stage
It might get me high
But it don't mean a thing tonight

That would be the only thing I'd ever need
Yeah, if I had you, the money fame and fortune never could compete
If I had you, life would be a party it'd be ecstasy
Yeah, if I had you
You-y-y-y-y-you
You-y-y-y-y-you
You-y-y-y-y-you
If I had you

That would be the only thing I'd ever need
Yeah, if I had you, then money fame and fortune never could compete (never could compete with you)
If I had you, life would be a party it'd be ecstasy (it'd be ecstasy with you)
Yeah, if I had you
You-y-y-y-y-you
You-y-y-y-y-you
You-y-y-y-y-you
If I had you, you, you
(fade ending)

Okay, so then when I get home I'm checking out other stuff from this same guy and the first song I listen to (which I had heard before but hadn't really paid attention to the words) seems to fit Scel re Lexy! :) It's called "What Do You Want From Me?":

Hey, slow it down whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Yeah I’m afraid whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?

There might have been a time
When I would give myself away
Oh, once upon a time I didn’t give a damn
But now, here we are so whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me

Just don’t give up I’m workin it out
Please don’t give in, I won’t let you down
It messed me up, need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey, whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?

Yeah, it’s plain to see
That baby you’re beautiful
And it’s nothing wrong with you
It’s me, I’m a freak, yeah
But thanks for lovin’ me
Cause you’re doing it perfectly

Yeah, there might have been a time
When I would let you step away
I wouldn’t even try
But I think you could save my life

Just don’t give up I’m workin’ it out
Please don’t give in, I won’t let you down
It messed me up, need a second to breathe
Just keep comin around

Hey, whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?

Just don’t give up on me
I won’t let you down
No, I won’t let you down

And so just don’t give up, I’m workin it out
Please don’t give in, I won’t let you down
It messed me up, Need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey, whataya want from me?

*gentle bumps*

Ok so... I'm not good at finding music themes. I can think of songs that go well with specific aspects/events/moods of my PCs, but a general theme? Not so much.

However. For some reason, I don't really know why, I think of Yana whenever I hear this piece. =)
