Heh. I'm sitting here arranging my mp3s by char. i guess it started when i listened to PJ Harvey...that was the Azra'il trend. These are Azra'il/Valerai and Genevieve songs (mostly the latter):

--Azra'il

PJ Harvey - The Dancer

Limp Bizkit - Rearranged(?) - the lyrics aren't right, but the FEEL of it sorta is, for Azra'il

heh...Murray Head - One Night in Bangkok. Just those lines, "I feel the Devil sliding up to me" and "I feel an angel walking next to me".

--Azra'il and Chance

Sonique - It Feels So Good

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit (like, the Chance Anthem)

--Valerai and Genevieve

Coldplay - Yellow

David Gray - Sail Away

Sting - Fields of Gold

Simon&Garfunkel - Scarborough Fair

Annie Lennox - Love Song etc.

James Horner - Hymn to the Sea (Titanic Soundtrack)

The whole first Enigma CD (as a WHOLE, not in pieces)

...and then I thought about Wish and Natalia songs. It goes without saying that a lot of garbage, delerium and mezzanine ohm studio songs fit, but among them some stood out. so those are the ones i made special note of below.

--Wish and Natalia

The World is Not Enough

Temptation Waits

You Look So Fine (i dunno why this one...but, yeah. It really does match somehow)

Adam 6 Lilith (that coooool bass groove, more so than the lyrics, though admittedly it was the name that first drew me.)

Faithless - Addictive

Enigma - i love you, I'll kill you

Marcy Playground - sex and candy

Santana - Smooth

Wasis Diop - Everything (is not enough - i like the sexiness and the odd urgency of it)

Depeche Mode - Sea of Sin, Dangerous

Enigma - I love you, i'll kill you. The first part, not the dumb guitar part. Also the Orthodox mix of mea culpa.

--Natalia

Queer(!!! NATALIA!)

Supervixen (Natalia!)

Milk (kinda Nataliaesque - i am strong, but i am weak, etc)

Flowers become Screens

Portishead - All Mine and Cowboys

Olive - Indulge me

--Wish

Terra Firma

Nick Cave - Loverman

Bryan Ferry - Bete Noire ("I know you, inside me, like poison, like fire"...that's where i got "poison" from, you know? *grins*)

Joi - India

Allanah Myles - Black Velvet (sorta)

Bassic - Seduction

Prodigy - Climbatize

Rob D - clubbed to death

...then the Griffin-esque:

--More mellow-mooded Griff (depressed over Constanta? *smirk*)

Limp Bizkit - rearranged

Wallflowers - One headlight (not the chorus - the verses)

Whitetown - your woman

--Rockin' out with mortals Griff

Madonna - music

Bloodhound Gang - The bad touch

--Stoned Griff

Velvet Underground - Venus in Furs

--Violent Griff

Butthole Surfers - Whatever ("I had a dream last night, because she looked just like a dream/she was on fire last night, and i was breathin gasoline/i had a dream last night, and it fit me like a glove/i had to scream last night...") - this one really fits him, heh, probably closest to what he really is.

...Nik-esque:

--Nikolas

Brothers in Arms

(sorta:) Moby and Gwen Stefani - Southside

--Jacinth

Janis Joplin - Summertime

Jessica Rabbit (heh) - why don't you do right

Sting - Desert Rose

That one french-arabic song (Mon Amie la rose)

--Nik and Jacinth

Er. I can't think of any, but oddly I've been listening to Kissing in the Rain (Great Expectations Soundtrack) a lot.

Also, Urge Overkill - Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon

Craig Armstrong - Final score (from Moulin rouge)

Skadi-esque:

Guess Who - American Woman

Is that. Not. PERFECT for Skadi? the guitars, the 60s-rock style of it. American woman! stay away from me-e. American woman! mama let me be-e.

Okay, not the lyrics. but the feel of it.

man, i have spent WAY too much time thinking about this. i'm sendin this to myself, cuz i'm gonna wanna make CDs of these lists now, LOL.

*yawn*

i had another cinematic dream last night. been having them a lot (like where the dream is a "movie"). like that shakespearian drama one; and then the one where i got engaged to the wrong girl, etc.

last night's was weird, and sad. heh. like, there were these two girls. well, i'm paring it down to the essentials. the dream was a LOT less coherent than this.

so there were two girls. and they were like...on this train? but at the beginning there was this old lady, too...or like all through it there was the feeling of there being this old lady. i think her name was miss havisham, heh. and she was kinda like dickens' havisham. an old maid, never married, kinda crazy and bitter.

anyway, two girls on this train. and they were best friends, or sisters, or something. and then there was this boy, and then the older girl liked him, and he liked her, but the younger one liked him too and was bitter, and seduced him away?? but like in a junior-high way, just bantering and sorta-flirting? but the older was angry with the younger, and they fought and fought, and all the while the train sped towards some unknown destination and the whole thing felt so freakishly UNREAL...and that impression of the old lady was still in the background.

then the dream segues away into a totally unrelated sequence about evolution and this game i was playing, heh.

then, like, we're back to the girls. i guess something happened, and they had a huge fight and broke up utterly...but the older one (main char) felt bad, so she went and broke up with the boy, or actually, she DECIDED to - and the moment she decided, she and the other girl - this was bizarre - MERGED, and morphed into the old lady, bent-over and sad and bitter in front of her fireplace, and the whole thing had been like a hallucination/flashback, or something.

i think it was a hallucination of the old lady. it was scary, heh. she, like, kept going over the event again and again in her mind. i dunno how i knew this. i wasn't really in the dream, except in that unrelated sequence; i was watching.

bizarre dream *grins* sad and kinda scary.
