Hm... Finding a song that really fits X'Sato is tough for me. I have so many songs that fit parts of him or how he might act from time to time, but finding one song is... difficult. The closest I can get would have to be both of these songs. I could't find just one.

And now of course I want to play Xenogears again...

But I gotta agree Lren goes with everything if that's his theme. O_O And wow such an epic version too!

 

1) You can never go wrong playing Xenogears again

2) That was my thought too, such a great version of that song!

 

It was something that popped up in an OOC chat with a friend of mine, how Lren ICly complimented the groups he's been involved with in the past and given his current status... Lonely Wolf certainly fits him!  

 

Doesn't help that, to this day, I still main Guile / Charlie in any SF or Capcom crossover game so there is some influence there. xD

I think I've found some suitable themes for my chars.

 

First, for Isilme. For a knight clad in red, a theme for another knight clad in red.

And for Hirilonde, returning after five years to a land that doesn't remember him...

I am huge fan of Japanese pop music (Not anime music, those are two different things) because of this I tend to have two theme songs per character, one in Japanese and one in English so no one gets all mad at me :P

 

Loki

Wake me up - Ayumi Hamasaki

[video=youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sceyd11o8Ro

I actually managed to find a video with English and Japanese lyrics, hurray.

 

There are a few lines in this song that really resonate:

  • There is everything, yet there is nothing, that is the law of this sandcastle
  • The vacant memory remains like yesterday yet crumbles even more like my hair and makeup
  • And within my calm, cold mind, I finish up the puzzle
  • I can still be in time... while the wounds remain shallow
  • Anyone can enter, yet no one can enter, that is the fate of this sandcastle

 

And is had this kind of rocky vibe that works out too. I'm hella biased though, I think Ayumi Hamasaki is a genius.

 

As for English, it's this

BUT only the remix version I linked here. The original doesn't come across as angry and agitated as this remix does.

 

EDIT: I'll just put what I think I'm going with

 

Armi

 

Namie Amuro - Contrail

You can watch the video here: http://en.musicplayon.com/play?v=982991

 

The song is just amazingly uplifting and hopeful and has kind of a quirky style of lyrics that really work with Armi's somewhat strange behavior. Hell Namie is basically being Armi in the video, being some pied piper of hope and that is totally a skirt she would wear.

 

I'll put the English lyrics in spoilers here:

 

 

your tears of yesterday

will change someone's tomorrow

that someone's words

will save your tears one day

 

draw an undistorted circle

wander on your barefoot and meet on the scene

 

life, I've understood it

what is life, can you see that too?

 

you can run through the sea of clouds anywhere

with this pain

with this chain

with the power of stepping forward

the past will melt into the sky

and you'll see a contrail

 

I live in this time now

If by a mistake

I could return

to the crossroads

 

where I couldn't decide

to find the answer within me

 

there's no meaning of way of life

if you aren't there

 

life, I've understood it

what is life, can you see that too?

 

you can run through the sea of clouds anywhere

with this pain

with this chain

with the power of stepping forward

the past will melt into the sky

and you'll see a contrail

 

I didn't know then what I know now

 

If you give up, the future will close

you are crowd out and fall down countless times

if you look down chasing the sigh

the contrail will appear in the pool of water

 

life, I've understood it

what is life, can you see that too?

 

you can run through the sea of clouds anywhere

with this pain

with this chain

with the power of stepping forward

the past will melt into the sky

and you'll see a contrail
