Project update:
So far, I have about 14 of the songs everyone has listed. Getting the right order together is a bit difficult, but, so far it sounds good.
Tarq: you need to email me at officergleason@gmail.com any metal songs. p2p sucks for metal.
Because of the preponderance of couples in this guild (Which is gross considering the family "basis" of the guild) the project is morphing into volume one and volume two. From these soundtracks, I'll have a better idea of stage 2.
Keep the songs (either about your character, your characters relationship, or yourself) coming.
Cheers

It might be some time before I can email em to you, what with my computer being in the shop. Maybe I can upload them onto this laptop from the portable HD.

I'm having trouble coming up with a good one for Geny. What out there describes a ditzy, clumsy, tempermental, accidental tease of a librarian with a heart of gold, and eye for fashion, and a severe case of pyromania when pressed?

I've always thought Matchbox 20's 'Unwell' fit Thantrus a lot, especially these lyrics:
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell I know, right now you can't tell But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see A different side of me I know right now you don't care But soon enough you're gonna think of me And how I used to be

This song isn't quite yet for Brayden, but if things continue to develop as they have in the past couple days with a certain someone who will remain unnamed for now, this song could very well be from his point of view soon.
"Anywhere" by Evanescence
Dear my love, haven't you wanted to be with me And dear my love, haven't you longed to be free I can't keep pretending that I don't even know you And at sweet night, you are my own Take my hand
[CHORUS:] We're leaving here tonight There's no need to tell anyone They'd only hold us down So by the morning light We'll be half way to anywhere Where love is more than just your name
I have dreamt of a place for you and I No one knows who we are there All I want is to give my life only to you I've dreamt so long I cannot dream anymore Let's run away, I'll take you there
We're leaving here tonight There's no need to tell anyone They'd only hold us down So by the mornings light We'll be half way to anywhere Where no one needs a reason
Forget this life Come with me Don't look back you're safe now Unlock your heart Drop your guard No one's left to stop you
Forget this life Come with me Don't look back you're safe now Unlock your heart Drop your guard No one's left to stop you now
[Chorus]

How did I not think of this for the Riders?
"Brothers in Arms" - Dire Straits
These mist covered mountains Are a home now for me But my home is the lowlands And always will be Some day you'll return to Your valleys and your farms And you'll no longer burn To be brothers in arms
Through these fields of destruction Baptism of fire I've watched all your suffering As the battles raged higher And though they did hurt me so bad In the fear and alarm You did not desert me My brothers in arms
There's so many different worlds So many different suns And we have just one world But we live in different ones
Now the sun's gone to hell And the moon's riding high Let me bid you farewell Every man has to die But it's written in the starlight And every line on your palm We're fools to make war On our brothers in arms

I first heard this song back about the time "The Dispossessed" was wrapping up, and after a couple of listens, when I figured out the lyrics, I just said to myself, "Self, this is Ceil thinking about herself and Tarquin. Gotta be."
Alison Krauss & Union Station, "Crazy Faith"
I lit my love and watched it burn Asking nothing in return Except the lessons I will learn By holding crazy faith
I've been touched by that bright fire Down to the root of my desire While the smoke it rises higher On crazy faith
You're not asking if I love this man I know you don't, you don't believe you can Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan It's crazy I know But my faith says so It tells me
Am I a fool for hanging on? Would I be a fool to be long gone? When is daylight going to dawn On my crazy faith?
The questions will not let me sleep Answers buried way too deep At the bottom of a lover's leap Made by crazy faith
You're not asking if I love this man I know you don't, you don't believe you can Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan It's crazy I know, but my faith says so It tells me
Love your losing, lose your love Let the hawk fly from the glove Then do not search the skies above Search your crazy faith
Love is lightning, love is ice It only strikes the lucky twice Once, so you will know the price And once for crazy faith
You're not asking if I love this man I know you don't, you don't believe you can Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan It's crazy I know, But my faith says so

For all the "What if" tales... a song for those left behind by the deaths.
"I Will Follow You Into The Dark" by Death Cab for Cutie
Love of mine some day you will die But I'll be close behind I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white Just our hands clasped so tight Waiting for the hint of a spark If Heaven and Hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark
In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black And I held my tongue as she told me "Son fear is the heart of love" So I never went back
If Heaven and Hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark
You and me have seen everything to see From Bangkok to Calgary And the soles of your shoes are all worn down The time for sleep is now It's nothing to cry about Cause we'll hold each other soon The blackest of rooms
If Heaven and Hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark Then I'll follow you into the dark

I swear I am still working on this.
I need people to send me screenies.
I also need my DSL back with a vengeance.

Oh, now this is what I get for not paying closer attention to the boards in the last while. I miss good threads like this one. I'm really not sure what would fit Mohris because he hasn't quite developed his personality fully. If you're looking to include him, I might need some help on this one...but the first one that came to mind would probably be something like "La Grange", by ZZ Top. And why isn't Tarquin associated with "Ace of Spades" by Motorhead? Forshame! I also found a song that you might like - it's drawn more from the "Another Day, Another Death" future storyline, but it might fit in just the same. Try "Good Times Gone" by Nickelback: Lost it on the chesterfield Or maybe on a gambling wheel Lost in it a diamond mine It's dark as hell and hard to find Well you can climb to the top of the highest tree You can look around but you still won't see What I'm looking for Where the good times gone Where the good times gone All that stupid fun and all that shit we've done Where the good times gone Well I still don't know Out in the back in the old corn field Underneath the tractor wheel Thought I'd dig 'till I found it first Broke my back and died of thirst Well you can bribe the devil, you can pray to God You can sell off everything you've got And you still won't know Where the good times gone Where the good times gone All that stupid fun and all the shit we've done Where the good times gone And you still don't know Saw it on the silver screen Preacher says "don't know what it means" Last page ad in a comic book Bought me a map, told me where to look It ain't carved of stone or made of wood And if you pay for it then it ain't no good And you still won't know Where the good times gone Where the good times gone All that stupid fun and all the shit we've done Where the good times gone

This song was on my playlist when I started putting her personality together.
**
She don't need anybody to tell her she's pretty She's heard it every single day of her life He's got to wonder what she sees in him when theres so many others Standing in line She gives herself to him, but he's still on the outside. She's alone in this world She's nobody's girl She's nobody's girl She shows up at his doorstep in the middle of the night Then she disappears for weeks at a time Just enough to keep him wanting more But never is he satisfied And he's left to pick up the pieces Wondering what does he do this for She's off in her own little world She's nobody's girl She's nobody's girl He said, Before I met her, I didn't love nothing. I could take it or leave it, That was okay, but, she brings out a want in me, of things I didn't even Know that I need. She does anything she wants, anytime she wants to. With anyone, you know, she wants it all. Still she gets all upset over the least little thing When you hurt her, it makes you feel so small. And she's a walking contradiction, but I ache for her inside. She's fragile like a string of pearls, She's nobody's girl. She's nobody's girl. She's nobody's girl.
- Bonnie Raitt

Enya - Wild Child Lyrics
Ever close your eyes
ever stop and listen
ever feel alive
and you've nothing missing
you don't need a reason
let the day go on and on
Let the rain fall down
everywhere around you
give into it now
let the day surround you
you don't need a reason
let the rain go on and on
What a day
what a day to take to
what a way
what a way
to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child
Only take the time
from the helter skelter
every day you find
everything's in kilter
you don't need a reason
let the day go on and on
Every summer sun
every winter evening
every spring to come
every autumn leaving
you don't need a reason
let it all go on and on
What a day
what a day to take to
what a way
what a way
to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child
What a day
what a day to take to
What a way
what a way
to make it through
What a day
what a day to take to
a wild child
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
what a way
what a way
to make it through
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
What a way
what a way
to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child

My latest post on Cat and Elyle's break up had a last line to it that I didn't realize was in a Coldplay song. Brayden pointed it out and now I see just how well that song fits the situation.
The Scientist - Coldplay
Come up to meet you, tell you Im sorry You dont know how lovely you are I had to find you, tell you I need you Tell you I set you apart Tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions Oh lets go back to the start Running in circles, coming up tails Heads on a silence apart
Nobody said it was easy Oh its such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said that it would be this hard Oh take me back to the start I was just guessing at numbers and figures Pulling your puzzles apart Questions of science, science and progress Do not speak as loud as my heart Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me Oh and I rush to the start Running in circles, chasing our tails Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy Oh its such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be so hard Im going back to the start

I've been listening to Stabbing Westward all day (Ok, and some Terminator 2 theme) to try and get in the writing mood.
"What do I have to do?"
You make it hard to breathe It's as if I'm suffocating And when you're next to me I can feel your heartbeat through my skin It makes me sad to think This all could be for nothing I wish there was a way For you to see inside of me I've never felt this way About anyone or anything Tell me What do I have to do to make you happy? What do I have to do to make you understand? What do I have to do to make you want me? And, if I can't make you want me What do I have to do?
I know exactly what you're thinking But I swear this time I will not let you down I'm not as selfish as I used to be That was a part of me that never made me proud Right now I think I would try anything Anything at all to keep you satisfied God I hope you see what loving you would do to me All I want is one more chance, so tell me... What do I have to do to make you love me?
