Songs you associate with fictional characters

Best AMV focus choice for this song, because holy shit what a perfect Amethyst song.

 

Crossing the fandom streams a bit, but this seems like a very Sans song.

Spoiler: relevant lyrics

Life's a song
You don't get to rehearse
And every single verse
Can make it that much worse
Still my friends
Don't know why I ignore
The million things or more
I should be dancing for

All the joys life sends,
Family and friends
All the twists and bends,
Knowing that it ends,
Well that depends

On if they let you go,
On if they know enough to know
That when you've bowed
You leave the crowd

There was no pain, no fear, no doubt
'Till they pulled me out
Of Heaven,
So that's my refrain
I live in Hell
'Coz I've been expelled
From Heaven

So give me something to sing about

(I don't know who'd say the last lines. Gaster, maybe.)

 

This song is the most classic-Muppets-era Kermit the Frog song I have ever heard that was somehow not already associated with the Muppets.

Imagine stage manager/director/star Kermit singing this...

Spoiler: Lyrics ~ If Rainbow Connection made you cry, this might too

Gaze at the sky
And picture a memory
Of days in your life
You knew what it meant to be happy and free
With time on your side

Remember your daddy
When no one was wiser
Your ma used to say
That you would go further than he ever could
With time on your side

Think of a boy with the stars in his eye
Longing to reach them but frightened to try
Sadly, you'd say, someday, someday

But day after day
The show must go on
And time slipped away
Before you could build any castles in spain
The chance had gone by

With nothing to say
And no one to say it to
Nothing has changed
You've still got it all to do
Surely you know
The chance has gone by

But, day after day
The show must go on
And you gaze at the sky
And picture a memory of days in your life
With time on your side

With time on your side
(day after day the show must go on)
With time on your side
(day after day the show must go on)

 

Gosh, I have a few songs.

I enjoy some niche fandoms though... I have a fanmix page with fanmixes for most of the characters from Lisa the Painful RPG and the Talos Principle.

Mix I'm proudest of is my Chara/Asriel mix for the No Mercy Run. It may have ugly art I drew two years ago but I love those songs for both those kids.

Also on the topic of the mountain goats... Heel Turn 2 is such a Claptrap (yeah Borderlands Claptrap). BLTPS makes that such a Claptrap song I could write meta on that being a Claptrap song.

 

So. Teen Titans.
Robin

Beast Boy


THANK YOU VERY MUCH

 

This song always makes me think of Tim from Marble Hornets, especially towards the end of season 3.

Spoiler: lyrics

You see a liar in the mirror, he's sneering in that way
That makes you feel unsafe, insane and you hate to see his face.
You punch the mirror to shut him up but he won't go away.
He just multiplies, intensifies, he's twenty tiny blades.

Is it getting better?
It's really getting worse.
I'll give a thousand apologies for a thousand hurts.
The forest is on fire but we're gonna let it burn.
We're controlling it.
We've got it handled.
Thanks for your concern.

 

*sees Star Wars gifset with the first verse of "Seven Devils" by Florence and the Machine and a comment "I've never seen this song applied to the hero before"*

*goes >_>, hides personal association with that song behind back*

Spoiler

Look, it's me, I have an obsession, you can't have the lyrics "I was dead when I woke up this morning/And I'll be dead before the day is done" in the chorus without me making certain connections.

 

Speaking of Florence, "lyricstuck of 'No Light, No Light'" is on my "RH fanart I would draw if I had art skills" list.

 

I have like... 3 lyricstucks in mind for different fandoms (and original shit) for No Light, No Light, and now I have another one.

 

Oh good, I infected someone else. :::)))

 

This is my song for...all the party members of SMTIV Apocalypse, really. But especially for Nanashi, Hallelujah and Gaston.

 

Was just listening to this and it hit me all at once that it reminds me of Swerve from MTMTE.

 

A pair of They Might Be Giants songs that remind me of Sans, with spoilers for the genocide run:

Spoiler: lyrics

the next second won't be anything like the current one
and we won’t know how it’s gonna be till a second is done

no one can see into the future
we're just going to have to wait
there may be strange new customs and new ideas
so try to keep an open mind
prepare for a second from now
as if that would make any difference at all
ready or not it is coming
and there’s no way to stop the clock

the next second’s gonna make the present seem like long ago
and make you forget everything that you currently know

counting down / to zero from one
hold your breath / here it comes
now that the second has passed
let’s all reflect on the times we’ve had
look back on a second ago
given everything that we now know
remember a second ago
recall if you can how it used to be
remember a second ago
it’s hard to believe we were so naive

I can barely remember anything about a second ago
we will soon be a second in the future that is all I know

Spoiler: lyrics

How thoughtless of me
How dumb can you be?
Hopeless, wasn’t that
What you called me and in fact
It was even more true than you knew

Where did the end of the rope go?
I forget now, did I let go?
After you left me hanging on your words
Which hung down like a rope
Where did the end of it go?
I’ll never know

You’re gone, but I’m still there
Clawing at the air
Now it’s curtains for me
And I’ll spend eternity
Doing joyless cartwheels in the void

 

The style doesn't fit the character (and I'm a trashy emo kid so I'm already biased) but



is a breddy gud Jason Todd song

 

giving me P5 feelings

not 100% sure why, but it might be the "kami-sama doushite konna garakuta wo tsukutte shimatta no/kokoro no doa no kagi mo nanka umaku sasatte kurenaishi" line.

 

And on a sillier note, this song is firmly = Sburb in my head

 

This song makes me think of Asriel.

Spoiler: relevant lyrics

Mother I made it up from the bruise on the floor of this prison
Mother I lost it, all of the fear of the Lord I was given
Mother forget me now that the creek drank the cradle you sang to
Mother forgive me, I sold your car for the shoes that I gave you

So may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
Sons could be birds, taken broken up to the mountain

Mother don't worry, I've got a coat and some friends on the corner
Mother don't worry, she's got a garden we're planting together
Mother remember the night that the dog got her pups in the pantry?
Blood on the floor, fleas on their paws,
And you cried 'til the morning

So may the sunrise bring hope where it once was forgotten
Sons are like birds, flying always over the mountain

 

Less for a specific character and more a specific scene but the judge fits way well for no mercy or certain variations of neutral run frisk in the judgement hall (possible hints at spoilers for near the end of undertale? Sort of i guess, not really)

 

IDW Starscream vibes:

Spoiler: lyrics

I can only hope it's true enough
That every little thing I do for love
Redeems me from the moments I deem worthy
Of the worst things that I've done
And saves me from myself at times of envy
When I'm missing everyone

If I wake in the morning
I only need two more miracles to be a saint
Everything I promised everyone I'd be
Well I just ain't

Lately it seems like everybody's sick everybody's dying
Build myself a wall of unhappy hearts
And only my heart knows my head is lying, lying

Oh glory, I think I see you 'round the bend
And I think I'd try any poison to get there in the end
Oh glory

 

This is a Dave Strider song for me
