More Potential Soundtrack Music

[emerald-happy.livejournal.com]

This is an awesome song I only just remembered listening to when QoA came out. I absolutely love it. The lyrics remind me of end of QoA to beginning of KoA. I can sort of see both Attolia and Gen singing it though it's more obviously from Gen's POV. (I read The Thief for the first time, 5 years today so I've been looking for more potential soundtrack music.) avian_xjfound y'all a link where you can listen to it. She rocks. So go listen. Here it is

Here are the lyrics for anyone who has trouble downloading the song. 

Edit: When I say "soundtrack" I mean songs that suit the books. Just ideas talked about in The Conspiracy Room.  That doesn't mean there is going to be films. I was listening to this at the same time I got QoA so that formed the mental link between the two...

it's free to play, not a download :)

*headdesks* This is what happens when I'm actually downloading music at the same time. *decides not to multitask*

[avian-xj.livejournal.com]

just though it might be easier that way :P

...sound...track..?

[dgfduck.livejournal.com]

I hope you don't mean as in a movie soundtrack; I've got dibs.

Personally I think these lyrics are severely generic and doesn't seem to remind me of The Queen's Thief at all but I think It's a great song itself.

No offense, I'm just better than you. And I'm not sorry.

Excuse me, but no one is better than emerald. She is AWESOME.

Er...what exactly do you mean by this last phrase?

um. kidding, maybe?

Re: ...sound...track..?

[avian-xj.livejournal.com]

at least Emerald has decided to share with us

Re: ...sound...track..?

[checkers65477.livejournal.com]

Nice icon. :)

Re: ...sound...track..?

[avian-xj.livejournal.com]

thanks. i forgot i had that one for a while so i decided to start using it again :)

"I've got dibs." Excuse me, but the whole point of the community is that we share our ideas. If you look in the archives under the tags "actors" and "music" you'll see this discussion has been around pretty much since the comm started. It's open to everyone, not just you.

Just a note...

Could we try and stay pleasant please? This goes for everybody who comments. Everyone's welcome to post things like songs they think go well with the books, and everyone else is just as welcome to disagree with them. As long as we all do it nicely.

That's such a cool icon! May I steal it?

Re: Just a note...

[rowana.livejournal.com]

Sure. :) I stole it off someone else too.

Re: ...sound...track..?

[dgfduck.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm sorry if you all took that harshly.
I thought by the last line there you could tell that I was just being uber sarcastic, I didn't mean any of it, honestly.
I thought it was a great song.

Are we cool, guys? Please don't leave me unanswered, I have a deep conscious that haunts me forever.

Re: ...sound...track..?

[dgfduck.livejournal.com]

Again, I'm sorry. It's just my type of humor; outright defiant and mean.
It's not for real at all.

I feel like a horrible person.

Re: ...sound...track..?

[(Anonymous)]

Ha. It's not a problem. I thought you might be kidding.

~she who really DOES have dibs.

Re: ...sound...track..?

[emerald-happy.livejournal.com]

Well, of course I'm never going to forgive you...

It's difficult to tell when people are sarcastic online! *points to words above* I was actually more amused than anything; Queen Moderator Rowana said you probably didn't mean it like that. And I'm not bothered if people disagree with me because that's what the comm's for.

Be blessed in your endeavours, Deep Conscience :) :P :D

And have a nice day!!!

btw, i' ve been thinking about this for a while. could we make a sort of fan soundtrack for QT? everybody suggests stuff, and we could have theme songs for each char. to prevent conflict, (such as above. sighs.), we could have multiple theme songs for a char. but there must be some sort of explanation by the suggestor on why it's related. and one lovely day we'll post it up in a zip file for everyone to download. i have no suggestions for songs though, sorry =P

[checkers65477.livejournal.com]

It sounds like fun, but I think it would break more than a few copyright laws.

[jyms.livejournal.com]

people do it quite often (there is one 'our mutual friend' one, for example), though i have no idea if it is legal. maybe allow downloads for only a week then remove the files? then how do free music blogs work anyway?

[elsa12790.livejournal.com]

Thanks for posting that, emerald. I'm at work so I couldn't listen to it, but I read the lyrics. I just about choked on my coffee when I read the line "So I took your hand..." though.

[emerald-happy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, me too! It reminds me of the end of QoA when Attolia takes Gen's maimed hand and says "see what I have done to you" or something like that just before she admits she loves him. Awww!

[checkers65477.livejournal.com]

I know we've done this before, but would someone like to start an updated post where folks can list (or re-list) their ideas for songs?

I've been listening to my (legally purchased) "Hallelujah" by Rufus Wainright. *hearts*

*also hearts*
