Meme: Playlist of your Life!

I don't think we've ever done this before, but with Once More With Fandom coming up, it might be fun to give this one a spin!

Twenty-four prompts from your character's life. Pick a song for each (or for as many of them as you prefer) and comment back with it! It can be straight up song titles, YouTube links, or what have you.

So, for Peter, it goes a little bit like this...

Main Character Theme: 'Kidz', Take That
Waking Up: 'Waiting', Green Day
Average Day: 'Just Another Day', Oingo Boingo
Happy Dance: 'I Want To Conquer The World', Bad Religion

... And so on.

Do all of them, do only a couple, do a couple now and do the rest later - it's up to you. Either way, have a handy textbox:

Okay, just doing it from the one account because the girl does make it easy not dirty. Though I have no idea why I'm linking. I don't think anyone's actually gonna click. DARE YOU TO.

List is legit, yo. Don't know how that little teacup stole it.

Okay, the teacup inspired me to do this for Quinn using only songs performed on Glee. I would limit it to songs she sang-- but if I did that this would be a very short list.
Some of these may be a bit too on-the-nose, but the canon's pretty on-the-nose to start with.

Main Character Theme: "Control" (Janet Jackson)

Waking Up: "Run the World (Girls)" (Beyonce)

Average Day: "Dreams" (Fleetwood Mac)

Happy Dance: "ABC" (Jackson 5)

First Date: "When I Get You Alone" (Robin Thicke)

(First) Hookup: "Blame It" (T-Pain)

Falling in Love: "Bad Romance" (Lady Gaga)

Love Scene: "Teenage Dream" (Katy Perry)

Sex Scene: "Candyman" (Christina Aguilera)

Lovers' Quarrel: "Go Your Own Way" (Fleetwood Mac)

Breaking Up: "You Keep Me Hangin' On" (The Supremes)

Getting Back Together: "My Life Would Suck Without You" (Kelly Clarkson)

Secret Love: "True Colors" (Cyndi Lauper)

Life's Okay: "Don't Stop Believin'" (Journey)

Breakdown: "Perfect" (Pink)

Driving: "Only the Good Die Young" (Billy Joel.)

Learning a Lesson: "Out Here on My Own" (Fame)

Deep Thought: "What it Feels Like for a Girl" (Madonna)

Flashback: "Papa Don't Preach" (Madonna)

Partying: "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" (Cyndi Lauper)

Regret: "Unpretty" (TLC)

Long Night Alone: "One" (U2)

Death Scene/End Scene: "For Good" (Wicked soundtrack)

Closing Credits: "Over the Rainbow" (Israel Kamakawiwoʻole)

So I had this crazy idea to do them all with the fake musical acts from the book, but it was crazy. And then I thought of doing it all with boy band songs but I like myself too much. So instead you get girl pop with a smattering of other awesome ladies!

I haven't watched all of these videos, because my computer is being a ho. Also, partial credit for this list goes to the ladies at Forever Young Adult.

Main Character Theme: Born This Way, Lady Gaga
Waking Up: Teenage Dream, Katy Perry

Oh, I like how the preview button now does nothing, that's super special, LJ. SIGH.

¹Minus the parts about not eating and whatnot, obviously.
²Okay, her guy's British, not American, but he's got her heartbeat runnin' away~. I couldn't watch this one, I don't know if it's the clean version or dirty, so, um, probably not worksafe lyrics?
³This is what we call a 'leitmotif.'

Main Character Theme: 'Kidz', Take That
Waking Up: 'Waiting', Green Day
Average Day: 'Just Another Day', Oingo Boingo
Happy Dance: 'I Want To Conquer The World', Bad Religion
First Date: 'Excuse Me Mr.' by No Doubt. Yes, from Peter POV. Oh Petra/Peter.
(First) Hookup: Knowing Peter, this is probably going to end up all 'Waking Up In Vegas', Katy Perry style
Falling in Love: For lack of better: 'Golden' by Fall Out Boy. There's got to be a better Peter/Petra song out there, though.
Love Scene: 'Simple Kind Of Life' by No Doubt, if we're talking Petra/Peter.
Sex Scene: Wow, I so do not have a Peter sex scene song. 'Picture On Your Skin' by Anouk is a good generic one, though. *goes with that*
Lovers' Quarrel: 'Why Do You Love Me', Garbage
Breaking Up: 'Somebody That I Used To Know', by Gotye. Not so much about Petra, but my go-to for Peter's feelings on losing his siblings. Mmm. Messed up.

And more if I get a second wind later.

** I couldn’t find a decent clip of this one, so you’ll just have to imagine it

Also, I'm not s'posed to do much YouTubing from work, so I can't swear by these links being 100% accurate or WS.

All categories: A Horse With No Name by America (http://www.reocities.com/TimesSquare/chamber/4749/horse1.mp3)

Nobody knows what Dave's obsession with that song is. (Link is an mp3.)

Edited 2012-01-07 02:16 (UTC)

NAME THE FUCKING HORSE. GOD.

The horse's name is not God.

Late as usual, but enthusiasm makes up for it, right? All links are YouTube, one is a surprise Merlin vid, but it was the right version of the song, so there!
The majority of these songs appear in canon as I have a strange obsession with downloading it all. Enjoy!
