Music and shipping! Two of my favorite things.
1. Write down 20 of your favourite pairings
2. Put your media player on shuffle. The number of the song corresponds to the number of the pairings.
3. Quote a part of the song that you think has any similarity with the story of the couple.
4. Comment.
Remus/Sirius (Harry Potter)
Imitosis - Andrew Bird
In this nature show that rages every day
It was then he heard his intuition say
We are all basically alone
And despite what all his studies have shown
What is mistaken for closeness is just a case of mitosis
I imagine this must have been something along the lines of what Remus was feeling after he thought Sirius had betrayed James and Lily and killed Peter.
Kurama/Hiei (Yuu Yuu Hakusho)
Wild Thing - Jimi Hendrix
Wild thing, I think you move me
But I wanna know for sure
Come on and sock it to me one more time
This is really self-explanatory, you guys.
Kurama/Kuronue (Yuu Yuu Hakusho)
Let It Be - The Beatles
And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Obligatory Kurama angsting over Kuronue's death. I like a lot of sad pairings!
Genkai/Toguro (Yuu Yuu Hakusho)
Suck My Kiss - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Look at me, can't you see
All I really wanna be
Is free from a world that hurts me
I need relief
This was weird to think of, mostly because I associate this song with Comedian/Silk Spectre I from Watchmen and equating those two pairings in my mind was... yeah. But it actually worked out.
Desmond/Penny (Lost)
Bad Romance - Lady Gaga
I want your drama, the touch of your hand
I want your leather-studded kiss in the sand
I want your love
Because we all know that drama follows Desmond everywhere. Also, "leather-studded kiss in the sand" is one of my favorite lines from any song ever. So yeah. (Honestly I don't think this song would have fit much better with about six other pairings on this list haha.)
Desmond/Charlie (Lost)
Pray For Me - Sixx AM
Pray for me, cause I don't wanna
Pray for me, if you love me
Cross your heart and hope that I won't die before the best day of my life
LOL CHARLIE GETS THE SONG ABOUT THE HEROIN JUNKIE. This very appropriate.
House/Wilson (House)
You May Be Right - Billy Joel
You were lonely for a man
I said take me as I am
Cause you might enjoy some madness for a change
Actually I technically got "I Am The Walrus," but there was no way I could ever make that work. Again, pretty self-explanatory. We all know that Wilson loves House for his craziness, not despite it.
Ozymandias/The Comedian (Watchmen)
Sunday Bloody Sunday - U2
And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die
I see both of these two as so absorbed in their separate views of the world that they've managed to completely dissociate themselves from it.
Tamaki/Kyouya (Ouran)
20th Century Boy - Placebo
I move like a cat, talk like a rat, sting like a bee
Babe I'm gonna be your man
And it's plain to see you were meant for me
These are both two very contradictory characters. Which is why they go so well together, of course.
Hikaru/Kaoru (Ouran)
Blinded By The Light - Bruce Springsteen
Blinded by the light
Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun
Oh, but mama, that's where the fun is
Honestly, I don't think this song fits the best either. But the twins do have a tendency to push things beyond the commonly accepted boundaries of decency. And you do have to wonder what their parents think about their... relationship.
Finn/Kurt (Glee)
Jesus of Suburbia - Green Day
It says home is where your heart is
But what a shame
Cause everyone's heart
Doesn't beat the same
Mmm, unrequited love. (DON'T JUDGE ME FOR HAVING THIS SONG GUYS. PLEASE.)
Brittany/Santana (Glee)
Shine On You Crazy Diamond - Pink Floyd
Remember when you were young, you shone in the sun
Shine on you crazy diamond
Now there's a look in your eyes like black holes in the sky
I am of the belief that Santana was that girl who was really sweet and then turned into a bitch somewhere between like... third grade and high school.
Puck/Quinn (Glee)
Sebastian - Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel
Work out a rhyme, toss me the time
Lay me- you're mine
And we all know, oh yeah!
I still don't understand why I like this pairing so much hahaha.
RDJudesie (RPF)
And he carries the reminders
Of every glove that laid him down
Or cut him til he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains
Okay so this is more in reference to Robert and all the shit he's been through yet he still manages to be awesome. Idgaf.
Jet/Zuko (Avatar)
The Locomotion - The Beach Boys
Do it nice and easy now, and don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
Come on baby, do the locomotion with me
This was a funny one. It works though, in a weird way, especially the second line there- Jet and Zuko don't go together at all, but there's a LOT of passion there.
Azula/Ty Lee (Avatar)
Bitches - Mindless Self-Indulgence
This is how it should be done
This is how it should be done
This style, style, style, done
Pow motherfucker, pow
Bitches love me
Azula gets mad bitches. And she also has style. These are the things I know.
Hisoka/Gon (Hunter x Hunter)
All This Fashion - Say Anything
Oh I'll be around
When all this name dropping brings you down
To pick your pretty heart right off the ground
Hisoka will ALWAYS be around. There's really nothing else I have to say about that.
Roy/Ed (Fullmetal Alchemist)
Ain't No Easy Way - Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
And the last kiss had a foolish cause
Now your tired eyes can only haunt
There ain't no easy way, no there ain't no easy way out
The whole song is pretty much the same five lines over and over again, so I didn't have much material to work with. But I imagine Roy would be all obsessively self-loathing over it.
Greed/Envy (Fullmetal Alchemist)
We Can Work It Out - The Beatles
Think of what you're saying
You can get it wrong and still you think that it's all right
Think of what I'm saying
We can work it out and get it straight, or say good night
This song is so completely inappropriate for these two that it's actually not even funny. Except it totally is.
Matt/Mello (Death Note)
Pretty Handsome Awkward - The Used
Embrace the burn, you bleed
Just like you puke while running a mile
Hey, are you okay?
You look pretty low, very handsome awkward
Idek. But Mello is all about embracing the burn. And he can be awkwardly handsome. I guess? YEAH.
