So, I have this thing, where I have a word doc full of songs that remind me of moments in my fandom of choice, pairings, or just character songs. Yes, I have a shitload for DC, mainly from when I made that Robins FST. I have a really good lot of Doctor Who that I never got through completely, some Sherlock, some misc., and now everything is turning Dragon Age. XD SO, I'm gonna share some of my favorites from each? Sort of.
Man, I have so many. Where to start? Somewhere fun, I think. And I'll try to keep this to 10-15 songs. ...really.
Owen/Kara (DC Comics): This song works spectacularly for them. She was a bit of a superbitch to him, but it got better. <3
Keeps Gettin' Better (Christina Aguilera)So baby yes I know what I am
and no I don't give a damn
and you'll be loving it
Some days I'm a super bitch
Up to my old tricks
but it wont last forever
Next day I'm your super girl
Out to save the world
and it keeps getting better
Hal Jordan: For the random! And with the red headed bitch being Guy? Lol, I don't even know. It just struck me funny, and I lol every time I listen to this song now. I guess high school means the GLC? I don't even. >>;; Crack song, wheeee!
If You C Jordan (Something Corporate)If you see Jordan, if you see Jordan,
He makes me sick, he makes me sick
High school's over, high school's over
and you still won't quit.
Fuck you Jordan, fuck you Jordan,
You make me sick, you make me sick
High school's over, high school's over
I don't care if you dye your hair,
You'll always be a little redhead bitch
Lian Harper (DC Comics): Liiiiiian. She's gonna grow up, dammit. Fuck you, DC.
When I Grow Up (The Pussycat Dolls)When I grow up
I wanna be famous
I wanna be a star
I wanna be in movies
When I grow up
I wanna see the world
Drive nice cars
I wanna have groupies
When I grow up
Be on TV
People know me
Be on magazines
When I grow up
Fresh and clean
Number one chick when I step out on the scene
Roy/Dinah (DC Comics): And by mother, I mean Ollie. Hahaha. Ohdear. This is one of my almost guilty ships. I blame that Arsenal mini. >.>;;
Does Your Mother Know? (Mamma Mia)Take it easy
Try to cool it boy
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?
I can see
What you want
But you seem pretty young
To be searching for that kind of fun
So maybe I'm not the one
Now, you're so cute
I like your style
And I know what you mean
When you give me a flash of that smile
But boy you're only a child
Teen Titans (DC Comics, Cassie as Leader): Yeeeeeeeah, that era was, well. Well. Let's not speak of it much again, 'kay? :/
All My Best Friends Are Metalheads (Less Than Jake)You think its strange, that there's a way
of how you looked, and how you act, and how you think
pretend they're not the same as you.
Do you know about her strength in convictions
or how she puts all her faith in religion.
Did we take the time to really discover,
how little we know about each other.
Keep us from saying anything.
Can't separate from everything.
And all this really means is
you're one in a crowd
and you're paranoid of every sound.
You're not the friend
you won't miss anyhow.
Gambit (X-Men): Okay, this was a random whim, since I don't know Gambit all that well, but... Poker Face! >.>;;
Poker Face (Lady Gaga)I wanna hold em' like they do in Texas please
Fold em' let em' hit me raise it baby stay with me (I love it)
Luck and intuition play the cards with Spades to start
And after he's been hooked I'll play the one that's on his heart
Axel/Roxas (Kingdom Hearts II): So much wibble, every time I hear this song, no lie. I hope they still get a happy ending, somehow. Oh, Axel.
Iris (Goo Goo Dolls)And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cuz I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cuz sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
TARDIS/Doctor (Doctor Who): It's practically canon, especially after The Doctor's Wife. That made me have so many feels, especially with saying hello instead of goodbye.
Hello (Martin Solveig & Dragonette)It's alright I'm getting dizzy just enjoy the party
It's ok with me if you don't have that much to say
Hey
Kinda like this thing but there's something you should know
I just came to say hello
Hello
Hey
Hey
I could stick around and get along with you
Hello
Doctor/Rose/Jack (Doctor Who): Oh, my babies. They were so happy, once. Then it all went to hell. And that's what fanfics and a less emo Ten is for. >>;;
Before the Worst (The Script)If the clouds don't clear
Then we'll rise above it, we'll rise above it
Heavens gate is so near
Come walk with me through
Just like we used to, just like we used to
Lets take it back
Before it all went wrong
Before the worst, before we met
Before our hearts decide
It's time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Lets try to take it back
Before it all went wrong
Doctor/Jack/Martha (Doctor Who): Essentially, the last three episodes of series 3, really. Run from the Master, Martha! D: In my version, she got threesome sex, at least.
Not Gonna Get Us (T.A.T.U.)Starting from here, let's make a promise
You and me, let's just be honest
We're gonna run, nothing can stop us
Even the night that falls all around us
Soon there will be laughter and voices
Beyond the clouds over the mountains
We'll run away on roads that are empty
Lights from the airfield shining upon you
Nothing can stop us, not now, I love you
They're not gonna get us,
they're not gonna get us
Nothing can stop us, not now, I love you
They're not gonna get us,
they're not gonna get us
They're not gonna get us
Amy/Rory/Eleven (Doctor Who): Yeah. Well, it's true? If they never met the Doctor, they'd both probably be half as real.
If I Never Knew You (Jon Secada & Shanice)(female solo)
If I never knew you, I'd be safe but half as real
Never knowing I could feel a love so strong and true
I'm so grateful to you, I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever, if I never knew you.
(male solo)
I thought our love would be so beautiful
(female solo)
Somehow we make the whole world right
(duet)
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
All they leave are worthless whispers in the night
But still my heart is saying we were right.
DoctorDonnaFriends (Doctor Who): Yeah. Donna was a good other half to Ten, and he broke when she had to forget, and she moved on. So many sad feels all around.
Breakeven (The Script)What am I supposed to do when the best part of me was always you,
And what am I supposed to say when I'm all choked up and you're ok
I'm falling to pieces, yeah,
I'm falling to pieces
They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
'Cause she's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when a heart breaks no it don't breakeven even... no
Owen/Jack (Torchwood): The Script are my default for DW/TW songs. Shut up. This one just fits so much. Poor broken babies. :/
Deadman Walking (The Script)We're in the same room just one million miles away
With all these books around but we ain't go two words to say
Am I a dead man now, left living with the shame?
I'm...
Already broken, already gone
Already know you're moving on
I'm a breathing, talking
Dead man, walking
Already see it, in your face
Already someone, in my place
I'm a breathing, talking
Dead man, walking
Sherlock/John (Sherlock): Yeah, I'm going there. The Reichenbach Fall. All canon fans know Sherlock will be back, so. Yeah. The babies. So many hurts are coming.
Closer To The Edge (30 Seconds To Mars)This never ending story
Paid for with pride and fate
We all fall short of glory
Lost in our fate
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No I'm not saying I'm sorry
One day maybe we'll meet again
No no no no
[x2]
No no no no
I will never forget
No no
I will never regret
No no
I will live my life
Dragon Age II Party Members: Yeah, this is the song from the credits of Origins, but it fits DA2 so, so much better. The soldier is Aveline; the civilian (and prophet, if you're feeling it) is Varric; the martyr is Anders (if you let him); the victim can be Fenris (and later the victor, if he gets his way in Alone); the liar is Isabela; the honest is Sebastian (or so he thinks, and probably the messiah to boot, but the honest can also be Bethany); the leader, of course, is Hawke; and the pariah is Merrill. Look at that. XD
This Is War (30 Seconds To Mars)To the soldier, the civilian,
The martyr, the victim,
This is war.
It's the moment of truth, and the moment to lie,
The moment to live and the moment to die,
The moment to fight, the moment to fight
To fight, to fight, to fight!
To the right, To the left
We will fight to the death!
To the edge of the earth
It's a brave new world
From the last to the first
To the right, To the left
We will fight to the death!
To the edge of the earth
It's a brave new world
It's a brave new world!
A warning to the prophet,
The liar, the honest,
This is war.
To the leader, the pariah,
The victor, the messiah,
This is war.
Dragon Age: Origins (Magi Origins, but other Origins work): Always darkest before the dawn is an apt summary of Origins, most of the time. And how many demons do you run into during the game? Ghouls too. *shudder* But the Warden keeps going, no matter the path taken.
Shake It Out (Florence + the Machine)Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues strong
It's always darkest before the dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around
Our love is questioned, such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues strong
But it's always darkest before the dawn
...
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
And given half the chance would I take any of it back
It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone
It's always darkest before the dawn
Oh whoa, oh whoa...
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
Fenris/Hawke (Dragon Age II): And I leave you with some lol, because it is sorely needed after some of those sad feels. You know, since he ditches your ass after sex because Fen-Fen had a freak out. ...man, I'm glad I don't have a full developed Fenris muse; he'd throttle me for this, if I did. X
Drive By (Train)Oh but that one night
Was more than just right
I didn't leave you 'cause I was all through
Oh I was overwhelmed and frankly scared as hell
Because I really fell for you
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
