just a thought

[Red2111]

raise your hand if you'll be humming these songs next time you re-read the series

 

*raises hand*

[Blackhoof]

*raises hand*

 

I cant get "Everybody wants to rule the world" out of my head now; its just to perfect.

 

 

[Mr Ares]

Given the view some people have of the Perrin/Faile relationship, how about Kiss With a Fist by Florence + the Machine?

[Blackhoof]

If the people from the Land of Madmen ever show up, they would come on singing "We Come from a Land Down Under".

[Reyoru]

Haha all entries so far are awesome

 

Can anyone else imagine Fain wearing hammer pants, brandishing his SL dagger and singing "U can't touch this" ;)

[crazyfool]

Theres actually a song by Whitchapel called The Father of Lies

 

of course it has nothing to do with tWoT haha

[Blackhoof]

Interesting, how do the lyrics go?

[magnutz]

And "Blame Canada" when we lose.

 

"Another One Bites the Dust" when anyone dies. Preferably Faile or Nyneave.

 

"The Song of the Seven Drunken Nights" - Fits anywhere but mainly when Mat goes wenching.

[Luckers]

If the people from the Land of Madmen ever show up, they would come on singing "We Come from a Land Down Under".

 

Haha. "Can't you hear, can't you hear that thunder."

 

The Gathering Storm anyone?

 

I always knew Australia would be the source of the Apocalypse. You better run. You better take cover.

[magnutz]

Ain't nothin' gonna break my stride

 

Nobody's gonna slow me down

 

Oh no, I've got to keep on movin'

 

 

Ain't nothin' gonna break my stride

 

I'm running and I won't touch ground

 

Oh no, I've got to keep on movin'

[Owayn The Traveller]

This is great I was just thinking this the other day. Some really funny ones on it aswell.

 

How about 'Paint it black' by the rolling stones for the Asha'man theme tune.

 

'Nobody's fault but my' by led zepp for when ever Lews starts to rant on he should break into song. And when people used to notice Rand tilting his head like he was listening to some one, now he will jump around the place playing air bittern.

 

'Jailbreak' by Thin Lizzy if the dark one does break free.

 

and just the corus with the guitar riff and organ bit and second verse of 'Come Together' by the Beatles for when the Aes Sedai and Asha'man form the big circles. The first verse would be good for Elyas.

 

 

[Mr Ares]

Can anyone else imagine Fain wearing hammer pants, brandishing his SL dagger and singing "U can't touch this" ;)

No. You're just being silly. If anyone's doing that, it's M. C. Hamar.

Hoho  ;D

[Red2111]

lmao  yeah i can see it now. 

 

Rand and Fain are circling eachother, Rand with his power raought sword, Fain with the dagger.  all of a sudden fain starts break dancing and "Can't Touch This"

 

 

priceless  *snort*

[Germs]

The Seer's Tower by Sufjan Stevens:

 

In the tower above the earth

There is a view that reaches far

Where we see the universe

I see the fire, I see the end

 

Seven miles above the earth

There is Emmanuel of mothers

With his sword, with his bow

He comes dividing man from brothers

 

In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel

In the powers of the earth, we wait until it resurrects

In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel

Oh, my mother, she betrayed us, but my father loved and bathed us

 

Still I go to the deepest grave

Where I go to sleep alone

 

How well does this song fit tWoT?

[Red2111]

"Yesturday" by The Beatles.  for Rand

[Mablir Dorlig]

"A Singer Must Die" or "Tower of Song" for Thom's theme

[Red2111]

edited the last 2 versus of "Everybody wants to rule the world"

[Cillian]

The most obvious one to me is "OF WOLF AND MAN" by Metallica for Perrin.

 

"Off through the new day's mist I run

Out from the new day's mist I have come

I hunt

Therefore I am

Harvest the land

Taking of the fallen lamb

 

Off through the new day's mist I run

Out from the new day's mist I have come

We shift

Pulsing with the earth

Company we keep

Roaming the land while you sleep

 

Shape shift, nose to the wind

Shape shift, feeling I've been

Move swift, all senses clean

Earth's gift, back to the meaning of life

 

Bright is the moon, high in starlight

Chill in the air, cold as steel tonight

We shift

Call of the wild

Fear in your eyes

It's later than you realized

 

I feel a change

Back to a better day

Hair stands on the back of my neck

In wildness is the preservation of the world

So seek the wolf in thyself

 

Shape shift, nose to the wind

Shape shift, feeling I have been

Move swift, all senses clean

Earth's gift

Back to the meaning of wolf and man"

 

 

[Blackhoof]

I reckon "Disturbia" re-sung by a man would be perfect for some male channeler to sing about the taint.

[OptimusPrime]

Incubus, Pendulouos Threads

 

On a burning bridge, your options are minimal at best

Depending on where you’re standing

And how much breath is in your chest

If it came down to it

Would you high-tail home and hide?

Or dance on fire and enjoy the ride?

 

Mend this careless thread, it’s gone askew

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)

Or pull and see how much we can undo

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it

Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)

 

At the heart of it all

That innermost, your fiery core

There’s an amassing armor and it’s building you into a bore

Life’s a match in a gas tank

Don’t ever mourn the ebbing tide

Just dance on fire and enjoy the ride

Hey!

 

First verse is Ishamael to Rand, second is Moridin to Rand

[Majsju]

For Rand...

 

This.......this is the way

This is the way i wanna live

I'm going through changes

This is the way i wanna live

 

From this day on noone is going to tell me

What i should do or what i should not

That ain't the way,

The way that it shall be fight it all the way

So let them vultures prey on each other

Don't let them spoil it you've come this far

Coming out like a force of nature

This is the shape of things to come...

 

This.......this is the way

This is the way i wanna live

I'm going through changes

( coming up, coming up )

This is the way i wanna live

 

So if you're feeling sort of down & out

Don't loose ya faith, wipe away the doubt

You must take a stand that's what it is about

If nothing else works just shout!

You're no baloney homo sapien

You're the original king of the hill again

Coming out like a force of nature

This is the shape of things to come...

 

This.......this is the way

This is the way i wanna live

I'm going through changes

( coming up, coming up )

This is the way i wanna live

Nothing Else Matters by Metallica is Rand talking to Min after Tarmon Gaidon

 

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

And nothing else matters

 

Never opened myself this way

Life is ours, we live it our way

All these words I don't just say

And nothing else matters

 

Trust I seek and I find in you

Every day for us something new

Open mind for a different view

And nothing else matters

 

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

But I know

 

So close no matter how far

Couldn't be much more from the heart

Forever trusting who we are

And nothing else matters

 

Never cared for what they do

Never cared for what they know

but I know

 

I never opened myself this way

Life is ours, we live it our way

All these words I don't just say

And nothing else matters

 

Trust I seek and I find in you

Every day for us something new

Open mind for a different view

And nothing else matters

[Red2111]

it seems like Metallica has alot of songs which fit into the WoT :) 

[OptimusPrime]

Yep, I havent listened to that much of em but Ive got their discography and just looking at the names of some of their songs... Fire with Fire is one I think.

 

In Your Honor by Foo Fighters

 

Can you hear me

Hear me screamin'

Breaking in the muted skies

This thunder heart

Like bombs beating

Echoing a thousand miles

 

Mine is yours and yours is mine

There is no divide

In your honor

I would die tonight

 

Mine is yours and yours is mine

I will sacrifice

In your honor

I would die tonight

For you to feel alive

 

Can you feel me

Feel me breathing

One last breathe before I close my eyes

This offering

For receiving

Deliver me into the other side

 

For you to feel alive

For you to feel alive

For you to feel alive

AHH

 

Rand, singing to the Dark One while Alivia helps him sacrifice himself in a way that allows him to return
