doin that music shit

[Kazz]

so remember how I have a song for everything
yeah i thought it'd be nice and organized (ha) if we had a thread where we could share our music choices for Glitchstuck

post ur shit, link to the song, what character/group of characters/plot point you think it fits or whatev
maybe give an explanation of why you think it's appropriate or some choice lyrics
yeah i really like music and this is more organized than flinging links into the chat!!

[Kazz]

i'll start ur shit off with some good old fashioned GUT PUNCHING

'Battle Scars' by Paradise Fears
For the kids as a group, because they're all precious babbus and i want to cry about them

this is a call to the soldiers, the fighters, the young, the innocent and righteous
we've got a little room to grow, better days are near-- hope is so much stronger than fear
so if you jump, kid, don't be scared to fall! we'll be kings and queens in this dream, all for one, one for all.
you can light up the dark-- there's a fire in your heart burning brighter than ever before.

I'll carry you home; no, you're not alone.
keep marching on-- this is worth fighting for
you know we've all got battle scars
you've had enough, but just don't give up
stick to your guns-- you are worth fighting for.
you know we've all got battle scars
keep marching on

oh man, let me be the next. I'll post up a link to Rhys' whole playlist when I have it up on 8tracks, and the songs'll have annotations up there, but for now...

I postulate, for the glitchstuck kids, Luck by American Authors

    How can we make amends when we said all we said?
    I call and you don't pick up
    How can I say instead that I hope it's for the best?
    I won't, and I won't give up

    I'm sorry, Mother
    I know I let you down
    I'm sorry for how I up and left this town

    How can we push aside all the bad and make it right
    Now you got me all choked up
    I'm sorry, brother
    I know I let you down
    I'm sorry for how I up and left this town

On a happier note, there's also All-Star, with the first verse being assigned to Nico, second to Tera, third to Codi, and Rhys gets all the instrumental parts.

Nico:
    Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
    I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
    She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
    In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

Tera:
    The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
    The water's getting warm so you might as well swim
    My world's on fire. How about yours?
    That's the way I like it and I'll never get bored.

Codi:
    Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
    I need to get myself away from this place
    I said yep what a concept
    I could use a little fuel myself
    And we could all use a little change
