OC Theme Songs

by **Kiskaloo** on Sat 27 Dec 2008, 08:37

I had a thread in The Music Room about describing fratellos/sorellas (canon and OC) in song, but if your OC had a theme song, what would it be?

I found Kara's:

"Closer" by Inoue Joe which is the 4th opening to Naruto: Shippuden.

As far as this one goes, I'm officially torn.

Alpha's theme song would probably be either Children of the Grave by Black Sabbath or For Whom the Bell Tolls by Metallica.

Alexander's theme album would be Top Ten Songs from Adult Entertainment of the '70's. Time to Sleep

I can't really think of anything that properly fits Keetha. I think perhaps I Fought the Angels would fit her in part, but it doesn't entirely describe her...

Come to think of it, I do have something that describes her well. The only trouble is, I composed it and it's a MIDI...

Can you output it to MP3? Though I imagine something on my Mac can handle MIDI files.

by TTIO on Mon 29 Dec 2008, 13:16

Probably, with a bit of tinkering. MIDI players for Linux are notoriously bad, and I have nothing to record it on Windows. But give me a little time, and I'll probably get it through...

I can't think of a song for Riful yet, but for Kilana, Linkin Park's what I've done, would be appropiate.

Can we post the best song for the handlers too?

Cointanly! Wink

And a great AMV/song choice! Good

Lance likes carrying an ipod on the job (against the wishes of his superiors) so i can't decide which song does he enjoy "shooting too"

by TTIO on Wed 07 Jan 2009, 09:25

Anyone know of a decent file storage site (aside from places like rapidshare etc.)? Something to which I can upload the MIDI, and later the mp3?

by **boomer_gonz** on Wed 07 Jan 2009, 13:43

There's always MegaUpload.

by TTIO on Wed 07 Jan 2009, 14:08

Found one, and so I have now uploaded Keetha's Theme. Password is KEethA (case-sensitive)

It isn't perfect, but hey. That's what I handed in for my CW...

by **Kiskaloo** on Wed 07 Jan 2009, 14:10

Very dramatic, which fits right in with Gunslinger Girl. Cheers!

by **Tommygunner70** on Wed 07 Jan 2009, 16:03

Ok... Time I do this this for my OC's...

Thomas: (not sure which one to chose... Guess the first one holds more true Razz

)

Sora:

Ronaldo:

by **Nachtsider** on Thu 08 Jan 2009, 04:36

Aharon - 'Disposable Heroes' by Metallica

Liesel - 'Heaven Can Wait' and 'Strange World' by Iron Maiden

Meir - 'Who Knows' by Avril Lavigne

by TTIO on Thu 08 Jan 2009, 09:46

You know, this whole thing has got me thinking about soundtracks to Keetha and Alcide again. So I'm gonna try and compose another, this time for both of them...

Oh, and if anyone wants them, the Sibelius and PDF versions of the first one.

And for anyone who is wondering, Sibelius is a score-editing program. It is rather expensive (£100), but the best out there that I've seen Wink

Alright. I wasn’t even going to get into this thread because to be quite honest, I thought it was totally gay. But now, I guess I have to come clean. Ever since I dreamed up little Britney, one song has stuck in my brain.

I'm With You by Avril Lavigne

Yeah, I know…

by TTIO on Sun 11 Jan 2009, 12:07

*zombie-like* One of us.... Razz

by **Kiskaloo** on Sun 11 Jan 2009, 12:17

"Resistance...is futile. You will become one with the Collective."

by Danjo3 on Sun 11 Jan 2009, 12:19

by Danjo3 on Sun 11 Jan 2009, 13:12

But I still think it's gay!

by TTIO on Sun 11 Jan 2009, 13:58

So you think you're gay? Razz

Be careful of criticising what you have joined... Wink

by LoC978 on Sun 11 Jan 2009, 18:51

well, I can't settle on any theme songs for my OCs, but I've got one for Jean:

Apocalyptica - Life Burns:

lyrics

We break our enemies with fear, and
We've seen how the tears come around
We've built our confidence on wasteland
We've seen how the walls come down

Life burns

A man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the reaper
All things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
We pray it would last

Life burns

We have no sympathy for the lost souls
We've chosen the path of disgrace
We give this life to our children
And teach them to hate this place

A man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the reaper
All things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
We pray it would last

A man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the reaper
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil (5x)

A man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the reaper
All things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
We pray it would last

A man dies like a butterfly
Life burns from the touch of the reaper
All things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
We pray it would last

Life burns
Life burns
Life burns

by **ElfenMagix** on Mon 12 Jan 2009, 15:22

Fernando: Behind Blue Eyes by The Who.

Rachel: Flight of the Valkries.

Francesca: 1812 Overture, though some would probably say Sir Mix-A-Lot's Baby Got Back!

by Guest on Tue 13 Jan 2009, 09:06

OC theme songs...is it?

Frederick: Hell March 2 (RA2 Theme)

...and I'm not sure of the rest.

by Probit Return on Sat 17 Jan 2009, 00:19

Hmm, theme songs. This'll be tough.

If I had to choose a theme song for Adrianna, I think it would be Dredg's Whoa is Me.

Nero's theme song would be Non-Objective Portrait of Karma by Circle Takes the Square.

Elsa's theme song is definitely The Fall of Troy: Phantom on the Horizon Part IV: Enter the Black Demon.

While she isn't a cyborg, Abigail is a main character, so she would get a theme song too. If I had to choose, I'd probably say Suspending Disbelief by Circa Survive.

I usually don't include Cynthia in my lists like this, as she's not a cyborg, but I felt Anthony Green's song Dear Child really fits her.

I may find theme songs for the handlers later, if I feel they need them.

Allison:

"Highway Star" by Deep Purple
...

"Kickstart My Heart" by Motley Crüe...

...or "Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen

Brian: "Drunken Lullabies" by Flogging Molly

by Professor Voodoo on Sat 13 Feb 2010, 22:05

I'm not sure if Marisa has ever heard any Rob Zombie (his stuff would suit her over the top personality) but Living Dead Girl seems appropriate for her.

by **boomer_gonz** on Mon 15 Feb 2010, 02:32

Decided on Crystal's theme song.

F--k you Tough Guy by T.S.O.L.

by Alfisti on Tue 16 Feb 2010, 06:50

Hmm, themes for Monty and Jethro... Probably either:

The Beatles - "Everybody's Got Something to Hide, Except for Me and My Cyborg... uhh, Monkey"

Or, and I think Robert Frazer hit it on the head with one one: Jeff Beck - "Hi Ho Silver Lining"

by Jacen Starslayer on Tue 16 Feb 2010, 10:50

Jay - "The Bleeding (Acoustic)" by Five Finger Death Punch

by Alfisti on Tue 04 May 2010, 10:29

This is just so very Monty...

Keith Mansfield - Exclusive Blend

by Robert Frazer on Tue 11 May 2010, 19:21

This could possibly represent A&A, although it's only provisional until I can think of something more specific:

It has that same sense of ambiguity, uncertainty and duality, with a melancholic tinge, as well as the story of a lost girl trying to find her place in the world (with the singer taking the position of a man trying to lead her), which could apply really to any aspect of the Agency and its staff. Elements that might be specific to Agapita include "Maria"'s outgoing character (referencing Mimi (Maria) Machiavelli, Agapita's original form) and the spiritual references which frame the song.

I'm changing it...

Francesca: "Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress" by The Hollies

by Good ol Boy on Wed 12 May 2010, 17:13

Let's see, for my bunch it would be...

Murdoch: "Paint it Black" by The Rolling Stones
Dusty: "Bang Your Head (Metal Health)" by Quiet Riot
Kit: "Blitzkrieg Bop" by The Ramones

by Jacen Starslayer on Wed 12 May 2010, 17:19

Now that I'm thinking about it, The Bleeding really doesn't portray Jay very well...

So I'm going to have to change it to something to "Crawling in the Dark" by Hoobastank.

by Robert Frazer on Sat 15 May 2010, 20:19

I actually think that I'll stick with "Round Here" for A&A's signature piece - it has a suitably reflective mood which I hope will let it and the characters linger in the memory. However, this could be a B-Side on the fratello's single: Sabaton's "Union (Slopes of St. Benedict)"

I've no particular objections to metal but I'm not particularly keen on it, and I have to admit that whenever I hear a metalhead winding up to drone on interminably about "chord progression" in an attempt to justify the genre I start rolling my eyes in derision. This song however warrants an exception. I find it formidable - a rousing, stirring, fortifying tune, an arresting backdrop against one of the grandest battles of the war, and the evocations of unity (between fratelli and wider Italy) and advancing north (against Padania) which translate well to the GSG setting.

by **boomer_gonz** on Thu 23 Sep 2010, 14:40

Although not an OC per say, I have a scene in my latest outline where a Roman Bishop who is friendly with SISDE is asked to have a meeting with Vice-Chair Marie-Petrice and Director Lorenzo on the Vatican's absorption of Les Soldats after the fortunate removal of a troublesome Sister and their eventual assimilation into the Order of Vatican Knights.

The Bishop is followed closely by none other than Laci Carmichael in her signature outfit and then this popped in my head for her theme music as she strolls through the halls of Section 2.

by **ElfenMagix** on Thu 23 Sep 2010, 15:05

And you would think that those under the Vatican's protection would have known better since Fernando off'd that Priest in Solution's Resolution. Evil

Nicely done Boomer.

While steeped in double entendre and euphemism, Allison may come to mind when a certain Judas Priest song plays:

...Though this would make for an appropriate 'OP2' once Allison finally loses her inhibitions and does the dirty with Jay. Muh-m-muhahahaha!

...Or for those who have seen that side of her, it's more of ForumChatbox!Allison's theme song.

by FearTheLASERFACE on Thu 14 Oct 2010, 16:35

I wont say which, but this reminds me of one of my characters

The perfect theme song for Sergej:

Don't ask me why, but for me "Mr. Blue Sky" always brings Jethro to mind.

While I'm not sure it would fit as a full-on theme song for her, for some reason, listening to this song, I can totally see it being something Nina would listening to and sing along with as she works.

by Danjo3 on Fri 12 Aug 2011, 22:46

A Theme song for Britney? That’s an easy one - The Beach Boys, Little surfer girl.
