Thank You For The Music!

This might be a sign that I have too much of The Queen's Thief on the brain. XD

I find myself repeatedly listing to The Glee's version of Alone

Why? Because one, it's catchy and two because now when I hear the song I can't help but think it fits Gen/Irene perfectly especially for this part:



Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone
How do I get you alone

You don't know how long I have wanted
To touch your lips and hold you tight
You don't know how long I have waited
And I was going to tell you tonight
But the secret is still my own
And my love for you is still unknown
Alone...



With that said it got me thinking a question for a good discussion.

Are there any songs or pieces of music that make you guys instantly think of any specific pairings and/or characters from the Queen Thief's series?

OH. That song is perfect. I've always liked it but never thought of it for the books.

Personally, any time I hear Straylight Run's "It's For the Best" I think of Gen during his QoA days.

Plus, it's a fabulous song, too.

*listens to the song* Yeah, I get what you mean. It does fit him, especially during his "recovery" time. And the song is catchy too. ^_~

'Just the Girl' by The Click Five remind me so much of Gen/Irene. Srsly, look:

She's cold and she's cruel
But she knows what she's doin'
She pushed me in the pool
At our last school reunion
She laughs at my dreams
But I dream about her laughter
Strange as it seems
She's the one I'm after

'cause she's bittersweet
She knocks me off of my feet
And I can't help myself
I don't want anyone else
She's a mystery
She's too much for me
But I keep comin' back for more
She's just the girl I'm lookin' for

Ooooh, nice song! Yeah, actually, I have one that reminds me of Sophos!!! Armenia's Eurovision entry this year was "Apricot Stone" and it reminds me of Sophos' wish to be sitting under an apricot tree. Especially the lyrics "I just wanna go back to my roots", cuz if he could have one wish it would to be back home and he associated apricots with home, just like this song. Here's a youtube link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8dvxUv3XyY

Little Lion Man by Mumford and Sons reminds me of Sophos. :)
