so Puu posted
a bunch of Araki-inspired music on her blog, including Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, the Beatles, Outkast, etc, and I'm following suit with part 2? XD; Enjoy.
EDIT: added Manhattan Transfer & Paula Abdul. And more Green Day. Mwahaha.
EDIT 2: added Wilson Phillips, The Cure, Joy Division, and Wham!
All of these songs/artists/albums were referenced in Jojo at some point. Yes, it's scary, huh? And this is nowhere near all of them. For those of you who don't read Jojo, uh, enjoy this extremely random collection of songs! Plz comment if you snag!
*
AC/DC - Big Balls -- everyone's least-favorite homicidal vampire god. I guess. (Maybe you like Santana less?)
*
Aerosmith - Taste of India -- my fav Aerosmith song for my favorite little thug.
*
Bette Midler - Wind Beneath My Wings -- I can't believe she hit on Jotaro. (sorry, did you want "From A Distance"? WELL TOO DAMN BAD)
*
Boys II Men - Motown Philly -- YOU LOVE IT. AND SO DOES ROHAN. UNDERAGED SHOTABAIT FTW.
*
Cheap Trick - I Want You To Want Me (live) -- what, I love this song :(
* The Cure:
Friday I'm In Love and
The Love Cats -- the latter is probably my favorite song by the Cure, and the former is one of their biggest hits.
*
Deep Purple - Highway Star -- this WAS a really cool fight between Rohan, Josuke and Highway Star.
*
Dire Straits - Walk of Life -- ironically both are dead LOLOLOL (actually the song sort of makes me think of Johnny Joestar XD;;; no, really, it does! listen to it!)... btw this is my fav Dire Straits song.
*
Elvis Presley - Jail House Rock -- JAIL HOUSE LOCK ROFFLE WHAT A GREAT PUN
*
Emerson, Lake, & Palmer - Tarkus -- this song is a 20-minute early-synth prog-rock WTF. It's not nearly as gay as the knight named after it.
*
Enigma - Return to Innocence -- I could have been wanky and ripped shit off cross of changes or something but I'm lazy and I really like this song. >_>
*
Foo Fighters - Everlong -- my fav Foo Fighters song. Maybe it doesn't fit FF? dunno.
* Green Day:
Basket Case and
Minority and
Waiting -- I love Green Day. I was gonna upload F.O.D. and some other songs but then I remembered that a minor villain like this does not deserve like 50 songs. XD
*
Halifax - Straight Up -- I wanted to represent Abdul without actually uploading any Paula Abdul songs so this cover is a compromise. MWAHAHAHAHA
*
Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart -- when emo kids dance.
* Paula Abdul:
Straight Up and
Cold Hearted Snake -- ZOMG BITCHES COMPLAINED SO MUCH ABOUT ME ONLY POSTING A COVER, SO FINE, HERE ARE SOME REAL PAULA ABDUL SONGS, YOU GUYS SUCK
* Mrs Robinson:
original by Simon & Garfunkel or
great cover by the Lemonheads -- oh what IT'S A MAN, BABY
*
Manhattan Transfer - Offbeat of Avenues -- sent to me by the adorable
nangke for this post. XD
*
Mariah Carey - Fantasy -- yes, I took on most of the most embarassing characters myself, you guys should be thankful.
*
Metallica - Enter Sandman -- well what do you expect, I only own the Black Album okay.
*
Oasis - Wonderwall -- another artist where I was going to upload more songs but then I remembered the villain is too minor to really deserve it.
*
Pearl Jam - Evenflow -- I suck and am not really into Pearl Jam but I really like this song and "Wish List."
*
REO Speedwagon - Can't Fight This Feeling -- SPEEDWAGON WITHDRAWS COOLLY
*
Ratt - Round & Round -- This fight was so stupid. The best part was how Josuke was all "ZOMG JOTARO RULES!" XD
* Red Hot Chili Peppers:
Give It Away and
Under the Bridge -- Another band where I would have included more songs if I could. XD;;
*
Bill Bruford - Sample and Hold -- for completists... sounds like instrumental elevator music to me. XD; I guess Mr Bruford is A GENIUS OF DRUMMINGS or something? XD;;;;
*
King Crimson - Neurotica -- Not only is it King Crimson, but I've been assured by PEOPLE WHO KNOW that Bill Bruford drums on this track. (Eh.)
*
Smokey Robinson & the Miracles - Baby, Baby Don't Cry -- SMOKEY, OUR SEKRIT BACKUP PLAN IS: WE RUN AWAY
*
Spice Girls - Wannabe -- oh come on, what else was I supposed to post for Trish?
* Stray Cats:
Stray Cat Strut and
Rumble in Brighton -- THESE SONGS DESERVE ALL YOUR LOVE. Okay and Stray Cat can have some too. It IS horribly cute for a dead cat plant thing. >_>
*
Survivor - Eye of the Tiger -- oh come on. XD YOU KNOW YOU WANT IT
*
The Clash - London Calling -- I was gonna post other songs like "Straight to Hell" or "Lost in the Supermarket" or "Rudy Can't Fail" or "Should I Stay or Should I Go" but uh. He WAS a gay 1-fight villain. XD;
*
Underworld - Jumbo -- I love this song T_T
*
Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby (remix) -- LOOK AT LEAST IT IS A REMIX, OKAY?
*
Wham! - Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go -- good to sing at karaoke! Oh, and the voices of the two singers combine like flavors in Italian food or something gay like that. Yeah. >_>
*
Whitesnake - Here I Go Again -- ROFFLE ZOMG GAAAAAAY
*
Wilson Phillips - Hold On -- oh what, Wilson Phillips?!
* Youssou N'Dour:
Seven Seconds (with Nenah Cherry) and
Bamako -- I like the second one more I think. Interesting.
*
ZZ Top - Sharp-Dressed Man -- INCREDIBLY MINOR VILLAIN FINAL ATTACK. Srsly though, every girl IS crazy 'bout a sharp-dressed man when it's Jotaro! :D
It is so awful that we still have only covered like half the music references. Passing the baton to
petronia now. (And I left Talking Heads and Pet Shop Boys just for you, dude! XD)
Later. @_@
