I'm sure that this has been done before, but - I was wondering, if you had to make a soundtrack for SIP, what 12 songs from all the different artists in the world would make it?

matchbox 20's version of fleetwood mac's "never going back."
pink floyd "wish you were here"
*I Think I`m Paranoid* by Garbage... http://cwm.ragesofsanity.com/s/asian/imu2.gif
"Exile" by Enya.
To Purge by The Naked Puritans
and
Anything by Mary Prankster (Roulette Girl, Green Eggs and Hamlet, Valentine, the list goes on and on...)
Hmm, it depends on the series of issues that you are making a soundtrack for (I'd bel inclined to asemble a 10 disc set for the whole run).
A good general song would be:
"Something's Always Wrong" by Toad the Wet Sprocket
--Van
I love Toad The Wet Sprocket!! so sorry they are no more.
Well back to the question at hand...
"Perfect Skin" by Loyd Cole
"land slide" fleetwood mac
"Every little Thing she does..." Police
"Lesbian house" prophets of circe'
"with or with out you" U2
and of course..."Home is" kid sister
Just to name a few
It is too bad that Toad broke up. I was fortunate to see them in Pittsburgh on thier last tour.
Another idea for some of the depressing moments:
"Pale Shelter" by Tears for Fears
I just heard it while I was reading this thread.
--Van
'not a pretty girl' by Ani Difranco. i dont really know where it would fit in, but it sort of suits Katchoo.
oh oh oh!! and 'thankyou' by dido
[This message has been edited by mischief (edited January 25, 2001).]
hmm...well, bjork would deff-i-nate-lee have to be on that list; ani difranco would have something to say("generally my generation wouldn't be caught dead working for the man; and generally i agree with them, trouble is, you gotta have yourself an alternate plan.") and "broken hearted savior" by big head todd and the monsters would suit nicely...i'll be back with the rest later...
"3 Libras"- A Perfect Circle
"Pain"- 4 Star Mary
"Blue Monday"- (covered by) Orgy
" Since You"- Krazy House (my cousin's band, it's on the Straight To Alright album- avail. in Toronto)
" It's Alright, Baby's Coming Back"- Eurythimics
" Quicksand"- Hole
And also some new renditions of the songs what Terry wrote by prof. musicians of the board.
------------------
The maverick heroine of STP land, avenger against those who would kick off with pretty women;
Hero to some, just another pretty face to others.
The cutest little lesbian.
...Without love, we are never more than Strangers In Paradise.
told ya i'd be back with the rest...
"not a pretty girl" ani difranco
"isobelle" bjork
"broken hearted savior" big head todd
"landslide" tori amos (yeah, just try and find a bootleg of THAT one...*sigh*)
"silent lucidity" queensryche
"dancin' days" led zepplin
"ms. jackson" outkast
"walk on the ocean" toad the wet sprocket
"codependant" garbage
"something i can never have" nine inch nails
"fast car" tracy chapman
and last, but most certainly not least...
"ice" sarah mclachlan
lemme know what ya, think...
"How Soon is Now" by The Smiths
"you'll dance to anything by-the-smiths."
just had to say that...I love the smiths!!
here's a few more...
"she" shawn mullins
"invisible man" the breeders"
"kool thing" sonic youth
"queenie" picasso trigger (defunct thrash band from ral., nc usa)
Hey perhaps we should do somthing about this. I mean burn a few cds with songs foe specific issues. what do ya think??
tori amos did a cover of ''landslide''?
yow.
''avalanche'' by shawn colvin would be a good one.
yep, she most certainly did...live at red rocks, colorado--it was so beautiful, it actually made me, and half the audience, cry...if you ever find it, lemme know...please
"Words needed" Scripture.
where are you where are you
where have you been all my life
show me please show me
how to speak your languege
I just need the right words
to get to your heart
Makes me think of what Katchoo would be thinking in the present days, and what Francine of the future is probably wondering, when the tables turn. Or maybe David. I dunno. It fits all of them.
Well, I've never heard of any of that stuff(except for Tori and Bjork)....
My tastes run much differnt from the rst of you, as my SiP sounmdtrack is mostly MetallicA...Load came out about the time I found SiP, so there is a strong connection for me.
The Memory Remains always reminds me of Darcy, 2x4 sounds just like Tambi working over Digman, No Leaf Clover makes me think of David and K after Darcy died when Veronica appeared, Until It Sleeps is definitely Katchoo, and Low Man's Lyric is David at the end of I Dream of You. Then there's some other stuff, like Sober by Tool, and The Brown Derby Jump by CPD sounds like Katchoo and Emma, Krytonite by 3 Doors Down.
Oh, never mind me, go back top what you were talking about..... http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif

The beast that shouted 'I' at the heart of the world.
-Neon Genesis Evangelion
I think the majority of my soundtrack would consist of tracks by The Gathering (especially the song "El?anor"), and maybe some Billy Joel (you'd be surprised how many of his songs have lyrics that match the tone and plot of SiP).

When I started this thread I forgot to add my list. Because SIP is a female based story, I thought a female based soundtrack would be best. Here are my choices -
1. Uninvited - Alanis Morissette
2. Hyper Ballad - Bjork
3. Celebrity Skin - Hole
4. Strong Enough - Sheryl Crow
5. Because The Night - Patti Smith
6. My Skin - Natalie Merchant
7. Will Never Be The Same - Melissa Etheridge
8. Walk This World - Heather Nova
9. Never Is A Promise - Fiona Apple
10. Sara - Fleetwood Mac
11. Cooling - Tori Amos
12. I Will Remember You - Sarah Mclachlan
and now for something completely different...
mmm. perhaps just a little different.
wes montgomery - "death march {13}"
jeff buckley - "last goodbye"
sade - "pearls"
poe - "trigger happy jack (drive by a go-go)"
stevie wonder - "livin' just enough for the city"
autechre - anything these guys put out...very industrial.
otis redding - "try a little tenderness"
pat metheny - "are you going with me?"
frank sinatra - "my way" (or if you're feeling particularly kitchy, try the cover of the same song by the gypsy kings)
modern jazz quartet - "blues in a minor"
jimi hendrix - "little wing"
jamiroquai - "spend a lifetime"
i've tried very hard to not repeat artists on this list, which was harder than i thought! close runners up: poe - "i'm not a virgin anymore", jeff buckley - "eternal life" and "lover, you should have come over", bjork - "new world", sade - "by your side"... there's just a whole lot of music that would go quite well with the story, either in the background, or as something the characters listen to. probably because there's simply a whole lot of music out there. i get the feeling that my musical tastes don't quite run parallel to the average sip reader...don't feel bad darth. although, i think i'm more of a jazz/funk/techno freak than metal.
------------------
the almighty can shove his scripture up his ass if just one word of it says i can't stand by my friends.
-jessie custer "preacher"
"Not an Addict" by K's Choice (from their first album, whose name eludes me). It's Katchoo during her early years and lapses.
How about K's Choice- "Somewhere"? The search for happiness never ends.... for SIP or its readers. It on the "Almost Happy" album- I got it bootleg from a friend. I don't know if it's been released in the US or not. They're from Belgium, I think- but they're an excellent band! Everyone should give them a listen!
------------------
"Danger Prone" Danielle :0)
Let us not look back in anger, nor forward in fear, but around in awareness. -James Thurber
When angry, count four. When very angry, swear. -Mark Twain
and how can we forget: "She keeps a Moet de Chandon in a pretty cabinet!"--Queen! for the high school years...
Or Van Halens "Panama???"
my GF and i contribute:
sarah mcl - angel
concrete blonde - tomorrow wendy
http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif
I?ll come up with a list soon but what about
You?re nobody till somebody loves you by Dean Martin??
"In the Doorway" by the Misfits
"Just Like Heaven" by the CUre
"Small Man, Big Mouth" by Minor Threat (for Freddie)
"Should I Stay or SHould I go" by The Clash
"Eye for an Eye" by Soulfly
"She's a Sensation" by the Ramones
"Get Outa My Room" by The Donnas
That's about all I feel like thinking up right this second
check out TERRYYYYYYYY post.
this may become a reality. but we'll need folks to get involved.
with the advent of napster one can easily download their own personal soundtrack for their version of an sip movie...
however my personal picks would probably break down by character thusly...
katchoo:anger sets...
hole-celebrity skin
coal chamber-loco
rammstien- engel
pearl jam-do the evolution
violent femmes-kiss off
katchoo; mood sets...
sioxsie and the banshees-fall from grace
bjork-army of me
the cure-letter to elise
faith no more-falling to pieces
francine:
eurithmics-there must be an angel
george thourogood-treat her right
drain sth-unforgiving hours
the cult-ciao baby
david:
union underground-revolution man
godsmack-whatever
buckcherry-check your head
darcy:
powerman5000-when worlds collide
stabbing westward-i dont believe
thrill kill cult-sex on wheelz
tambi;
rob zombi-the ballad of resurrection joe
bruce dickinson-the king in crimson
that would about do it for me ....
