Another RPer told me that this song makes him think of Kiht Jakkya. After I was done being all flattered, I thought I would post it on this thread :)

This is the version he linked me^

 

 

And, this is the original version of the song, I think^

 

Open spoiler for lyrics.

 

 

 

Fear not this night, you will not go astray.

 

Though shadows fall, still the stars find their way.

 

Awaken from a quiet sleep, hear the whispering of the wind.

 

Awaken as the silence grows in a solitude of the night.

 

Darkness spreads through all the land and your weary eyes open silently.

 

Sunsets have forsaken all and must open their eyes and,

 

Nightmares come when shadows grow...

 

Ice glows and heartbeats slow

 

----

 

Fear not this night, you will not go astray.

 

Though shadows fall, still the stars find their way.

 

And you can always be strong.

 

Lift your voice, with the first light of dawn.

 

Dawn is just a heartbeat away

 

Hope's just a sunrise away.

 

----

 

Distant sounds of melodies calling through the night to your heart.

 

Auroras, mists and echoes dance in the solitude of our life.

 

Pleading silent arias gently grieving in captive misery.

 

Darkness sings a forlorn song and yet our hope can still rise up.

 

Nightmares come when shadows grow.

 

Lift your voice, lift your heart.

 

----

 

Fear not this night, you will not go astray.

 

Though shadows fall, still the stars find their way.

 

And though the night sky's filled with blackness...

 

Fear not rise up... come on and take my hand.

 

Fear not this night, you will not go astray.

 

Though shadows fall, still the stars find their way.

 

----

 

Fear not this night, you will not go astray.

 

Though shadows fall, still the stars find their way.

 

And you can always be strong.

 

Lift your voice, with the first light of dawn.

 

Dawn is just a heartbeat away

 

Hope's just a sunrise away.

ooohh! I love threads like these.

 

Zhi's main song would definitely be Hanabi by Miyavi, Hiromitsu Agatsuma, and Jin Oki. That shamisen. <3 The lyrics are very simple, but it's the "we got no other way to live but this . . .like hanabi" at the end along with the driving pace of the song that really suits her. (plus, that shamisen with the guitars, unf)

 

 

For pure music without vocalists, some corvus corax definitely suits her, plus I could see her getting drunk and trying to dance* to it, too. Raucous cheering and all!

 

 

*by dance I mean flailing. Drunken flailing.

 

 

argggh one last one - falling down by oasis (prodigy remix)

 

This: "I tried to talk with god to no avail/calling him in and out of nowhere/said if you won't save me, please don't waste my time" suits her relationship with Nald'thal perfectly. Well, him in particular, but it suits her love/hate relationship with the twelve as a whole.

I actually have playlists on my Spotify account for characters instead of a few songs. I don't have any for my FFXIV characters yet, but I do have a lengthy one for a WoW character. I think I'll start one for my character, A'ria, today sometime.

Obsidian Hornet: "Boys Wanna Be Her" by Peaches

[video=youtube]

 

Lyrics behind the spoiler

 

 

"Boys Wanna Be Her"

 

You've got them all by the balls

causin' waterfalls, stone walls, bar brawls

Common stalls that cause 'em all

 

To you they crawl, body sprawl

Smokin' Pall Malls, close call, stand tall

Doll, you make them feel so small

(And they love it)

 

The boys wanna be her (The boys)

The girls wanna be her (The girls)

The boys wanna be her (The boys)

The girls wanna be her (The girls)

The boys wanna be her (The boys)

The girls wanna be her (The girls)

The boys wanna be her (The boys)

 

I wanna be her

 

Yes I do

 

The way you rock, don't stop

Girl, you got the chops

Flip flop, she bop, self-taught

You look so hot

 

Are you conceived, kids receive

Crawling up her sleeve

Parents bleed, can't conceive

That indeed we'll never leave

(And we love it)

 

The boys wanna be her (The boys)

The girls wanna be her (The girls)

The boys wanna be her (The boys)

The girls wanna be her (The girls)

The boys wanna be her (The boys)

The girls wanna be her (The girls)

The boys wanna be her (The boys)

 

I wanna be her

 

So do you

I've got a whole list. I usually can't come up with a character song, so I have soundtracks that I draw or write too. There's a thread about it somewhere that I started. But here's one of my favorites from A'ria's soundtrack.

While in hospital, writing out Erik's time in the prison and other under the table stuff, I must have watched this video and listened to this song a thousand times. Its over time become his Red Wings operative theme. I use it whenever I rp his intelligence side.

This one is for his dirty little secrets and his wish that he could protect the ones he loves by making them get as far from him as possible. His damaged side I guess from years of war, running, darkness, and a healthy dose of PTSD (he and I share this one.)

In the few and far moments of peace in his life, when he stands at his best and is the knight he wished he truly was.

I know I"m not the only one who uses music to get into character, and looks for songs that I like that "feel" like the character to me. I'm curious about what yours are.

 

For Dogberry, his song would be "Blood and Thunder" by Mastodon.

I still can't think of anything for Reinbach. She's a tricky one.

 

You're not the only one, nope.
