You totally win at this game.
::fist pump::
Here's a question I totally can't answer: if you were going to pick signature songs for any of the main or recurring characters on the show, what would you pick?
I feel I just don't know enough music to answer that question. The best I can come up with is "Behind Blue Eyes" for Sam, and it irritates me because his eyes aren't blue.
Oooh, I'll have to think about that one for a bit. I can totally do it, it's just narrowing it down to one that's hard.
Although my instinct is to say right off that Dean's would be "House of Wolves," by My Chemical Romance.
Lyrics:
Well, I know a thing about contrition,
Because I got enough to spare.
And I'll be granting your permission,
'Cause you haven't got a prayer.
Well I said hey, hey hallelujah,
I'm gonna come on sing the praise.
And let the spirit come on through ya,
We got innocence for days!
Well, I think I'm gonna burn in hell,
Everybody burn the house right down.
And say, ha
What I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
Tell me I'm a bad man,
Kick me like a stray.
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
(S-I-N, I S-I-N
S-I-N, I S-I-N
S-I-N, I S-I-N
S-I-N, I S-I-N)
You play ring around the ambulance,
Well like you never gave a care.
So get the choir boys around you,
It's a compliment, I swear.
And I said, ashes to ashes, we all fall down,
I wanna hear you sing the praise,
I said, ashes to ashes, we all fall down,
We got innocence for days!
Well, I think I'm gonna burn in hell,
Everybody burn the house right down.
And say, ha
What I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
Tell me I'm a bad man,
Kick me like a stray.
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
You better run like the devil,
'Cause they're never gonna leave you alone!
You better hide up in the alley,
'Cause they're never gonna find you a home!
And as the blood runs down the walls,
You see me creepin' up these halls.
I've been a bad motherfucker
Tell your sister I'm another
Go! Go! Go!
And I said, say,
What I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
Tell me I'm a bad man,
Kick me like a stray.
Tell me I'm an angel,
Take this to my grave.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
So get up!
So get out!
S-I-N, I S-I-N!
MCR's Mama also puts me in mind of the boys.
I should really format those lyrics, but ugh. Do not want.
Sam is hard! It's tempting to say the Dead's "Friend of the Devil," though it doesn't *really* fit.
"O Death" was probably the most impressive artistic use of music on the show, but I'd have to go with the two songs I like the most that have featured prominently: "Can't Find My way Home" and "Beautiful Loser." (And the use of the latter makes me sad that they didn't use "Shame on the Moon" in "Heart," as it's my favorite Seger song. And sometimes my favorite song, full stop.)
Oh, my other honourable mention is Silent Lucidity from Heart, which just made me sad without me properly processing what it was associated with.
Artist claims for the Gabriel big bang are tomorrow. I hope all the other artists are mad Gabe/Winchester fangirls so there's something left over that I like to read/draw.
That was also a contender. I told you ten was going to be hard for me! Maybe I should reevaluate.
Big Bang! Whee!
And, fuck, I'm signed up for the main big bang. There are 40+ D/C signups right now, and 270+ J2 ones. I'm not going to find SHIT. There's barely any gen or het either, compared to the Wincest/J2 juggernaut onslaught.
I have no idea what I was thinking.
Is that it? I mean, will there be more stories to come, or that's it?
Author signups are done now. It remains to be seen how dropouts affect the ratios, but it's not looking good for stuff I draw.
