I thought I might have started something with this thread! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
Anybody here like BOWIE?! My older brother getting me hooked on David Bowie, & two of Bowie's songs "I'm Deranged" & "I'm Afraid of Americans" works *beautifully*. Very Nighty-ish.
That, & "Is Your Love Strong Enough" by Bryan Ferry (from the "Legend" sndtrk.) works. It has kind of a swashbuckling feel to it.
I kinda of made this thread up 'cuz I like to listen to music when I write stories, and, seeing as how I have a few Nightcrawler stories in mind, I wanted to find some songs that would fit his personality.
That being said ... ANY MORE SUGGESTIONS?!!

There's a couple Bowie songs that I like. Don't know the titles so I'll just call them by the lyrics. One is "We can be heroes" He has a rendition in German that sounds pretty good. Kinda makes me think of the elf a little. The other is something like "You're face to face with the man who sold the world". Not really Nighty related, but I really like it. Been a while since I've listened to Bowie. Might have to scrounge around for that anthology CD.

I used to be one of the worst possible Bowiefans once...I still kinda like him! He did some appropriate stuff too, yup!

For some reason the Metallica version of Whiskey in a Jar springs to mind:
I first produced my pistol
And then produced my rapier.
I said, "Stand and deliver,
Or the devil, he may take you!"

Whoa ... y'think Metallic was reading an X-men or Excalibur comic before writing that?

Actually, Whiskey in the Jar is an old (Irish?) folksong. Metallica is just one of the bands that have redone the song. But I do understand what you're saying Lamia. That song fits perfectly (at least in my mind)!

I'm sorry, but I am sooooooo completely utterly sick of U2. It's hardly good music, in my opinion, at least the new stuff. "Beautiful Day" has to be my most hated song right now. URGG!!! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/mad.gif I hate U2 with a passion. "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" is the only song I like by them at all, and I love it. The rest...well, I could assassinate Bono for them. Part of it is Blink182itis, I'm sure, but most of it is just that they're terrible. I respect most bands as musicians, but UGHHHH U2 sucks.
Okay, rant over.

Hey, you're alive! And pissed too I see. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/tongue.gif
I like a lot of U2's stuff. I liked it better back when it came out than I do now, and that new song is just getting driven into the ground. But that happens with a lot of groups. Like Creed.
-
I used to like U2 but they have gotten too commercial. My absolute favorite tune of their's is Sunday Bloody Sunday. And there's a few others I really love. But none of the stuff theyve done in the last few years has been very good. They are a band who's day is over.

Hey, fellow elf-lovers! I'm skipping out for 2 weeks on vacation, but please, keep responding to the post.
AND NO MORE U2 BASHING!!!!! (*ahem* I wanted to know what music you thought would suit Nightcrawler, not whether or not U2's plane has flown.
....
Okay, that was just _lame_ ...)
Later!
