Meh. I'm starting to get cautiously optimistic about 'Blackberries' again ... four hours a day this last week ... but it's going to be seriously touch and go. XD
( Read more... )
"Immovan - Puttin' On the Ritz" XD "Schiri - Cursum Perficio" nice. "Lorranon - Kryptonite" muahahahahahahahaha!
thank you so much! that's fabulous! now i must find the ones of these i haven't heard. ^_^ it makes me feel like i have insight on how you connect to your charries now ^_^
'More Than You Are' for Schiri is my favourite of his three. ;)
Were you neurotic as a child? Did they come around and watch your style? Did you have plans to be a star? Did you have plans to become more than you are? ...
*cackle, cackle*
I can send you some of those songs if you likey :D just warn me what your taste in music is, or I might send you something you hate!
Character-song association! I love doing that! ^-^ Er, not that I know more than a few of those particular songs. I love seeing the lists too, even if they're songs I don't know and this completely useless save for the random knowledge to remember. ^-~
*chuckles* When I was an idiot somewhereteen-old (not that I've changed *overly* much) I used to make 'soundtracks'. It's how I got into the habit of writing to music. I should dig up the instrumental pieces and add those to the list. Er, after I find the original lists (yes, plural), anyway.
Look what you did! I have Vonre's in my head very annoyed at me for not writing, and now I want to dig up old lists and see whether they've changed as the characters did...
I tend to associate songs without thinking about it ... particularly if one's playing while I'm writing something at the time. Nutcase :D
My taste in music is simply bizarre. There is no rhyme or reason. I doubt anyone's going to know -all- of these (or even most :P).
Ooh, yes, do post some lists of associationy thingies ... it'll be a nice intro for reading all your stuff! And don't blame me, blame Anne ... she wrote a post about all the things she associates with her Lionchild (like hemlock trees ... ooh :D).
I've gotten pretty good at picking songs to fit what I'm supposed to write over the years. ^-^ And yes, playing songs over and over while you write things makes them stick to the scenes/stories. Usually it's not a problem to not connect them to characters unless the characters are really obnoxious. *eyes Vonre carefully*
*chuckles* But bizarre taste is often the most interesting kind. What's your definition of bizarre anyway? ^-^
Hrm... Already did. Will check whether you can actually see it in a moment... It was fun. Except for the fact where Telyn refused to assign herself a song and Vonre insisted on sappy love-songs that do not relate to him as person!
Well, it's not so much that I like bizarre songs ... more that there's no rule for predicting whether or not I'll like a song. I like little bits and pieces of everything (classical, new age, folk music, jazz, rap, instrumental, techno, hard rock, thrash metal, alternative ...) but I can't say that I like this or that genre. Eh.
Goodness, you were brave ... I wouldn't let any of my lot actually -choose- their own songs! Much easier (and less painful) to do it for them. XD
Now I'm big and important, one angry dwarf, and 200 solemn faces are you If you really want to see me, check the papers and the TV - Look who's telling who what to do Kiss my ass Goodbye
... er, yes, not really in the -spirit- of Alkior, per se, but I'm sure you can see why I got the link going in my head XD
Aha, which Savage Garden in particular does Joltir prefer? Or is it just a general thing? Can't say I've heard Northumbrian Piping, I'm afraid ...
Definitely the oldest association there, too ... and I can remember singing along to it with my sister when we were little kiddies with cassette tapes XD

I'm far, far slower at gaining character/song associations, *shrugs* maybe some year I'll actually land one for Geren! =P

The '1 Angry Dwarf' song is far too aggro to be Alkior's personality, but I guess my idiot brain just latched on and went 'hur, dwarf'. ;) Firmly.
