If you could choose a theme song for any EU character...

They Will Die 4 You - Kind of old Crystal Method for Kyp's Dozen.

 

Anakin and Tahiri - There You'll Be *Sniffle* That song always makes me sad. And yes, I know I sound sappy. And I'm proud of it!

 

Solo kids:"My generation", by limp bizkit
Mara: "I think I'm paranoid", by Garbage
Salt-lickin Barabel(forgot his name):"Because I got hiiigghh:, by Afroman
Kyp: "Special", by Garbage
Anakin Solo: "You Look so Fine", also by Garbage

 

Oooooh, what fun...

"In Dreams" from the Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack, for Tahiri and Anakin.

I'll have more soon.

 

I like this thread... I totally agree with the SP but also think "Communication Breakdown" by Led Zeppelin would fit quite well with how many of the characters relationships with others and the force are going right now.

 

Talon Karrde-"Secret Agent Man" by Johnny Rivers

 

Its The End Of The World.... was first done by REM. I think it originally came out in about 1987.

'Knocking on Heavens Door' - Stone Roses for Corran Horn

 

I'm keen on "Your Song" for Anakin and Tahiri, except use the Ewan McGregor version on the Moulin Rouge soundtrack--it fits better, don't you think? You know, the SW connection and all works much better than Elton John, I think.-
Also, whoever suggested "Adam's Song" by Blink 182 for Jimmy, I'm forever in your debt. That's perfect!
And Eve 6's "Here's to the Night" for Chewie--right on target!

 

What about "Last Kiss" by Pearl Jam (or whoever did it originally) for Anakin and Tahiri, and whoever said "Can't Stop the Rock" for Chewie, it is a little harsh but I just laughed myself crazy after I heard it. Perfect!
Great idea for a thread, by the way, and I took German too--only a little, though.

 

Sithspawn, doesn't anybody come here anymore?

 

Ok, I've got a few for you, since you asked.

"How You Remind Me" by Nickelback for Kyp
"Wherever You Will Go" by The Calling for various Wraiths, like Face, just because they are cool.

"She's Dead" by Jim's Big Ego for Raynar on his recent romantic difficulties

Jacen: If you never say godbye byP.M. Dawn
Kyp: Red Right Hand byNick Cave & the Bad Seeds
"you're one microscopic pawn in his catstrophic plan, designed and directed by his red right hand."
Jaina:Take a Bow by Madonna would fit, when she's not evil.
"My shining star, you don't know who you are, I've always been in love with you. Iguess you've always known it's true. You took my love for granted why, oh why? This show is over say goodbye."

 

After reading this list, I'm feeling my age.

Jacen: "Unsatisfied" - Replacements
Leia: "Bitch" - Rolling Stones
Kyp: "Bastards of Young" - Replacements
Vader: "God of Thunder" - Kiss
Anakin: "Something to Believe In" - Poison
Han: "Glory Days" - Springstein
Luke: "See a Little Light" - Bob Mould
Jaina: "Runaway Train" - Soul Asylum

 

Well, I msut say that I at least know of most of the songs metioned. I just usually chose not to listen to it. Don't get me wrong, I will listen to almost anything.
Here are my sugestions:

(format note-- Character--Song--Band{if I remember it})

Booster Terrik -- Evil -- Howlin' Wolf

Talon Karrde -- Glass Onion -- The Beatles

General Cracken -- Secret Agent Man

Han Solo pre-BalancePoint -- Manic Depresion -- Jimmy Hendrix

Leia post-SBS -- Let it Be -- The Beatles

Jaina Solo -- Brown Eyed Girl

Riv Shiel -- Clap for the Wolfman -- The Guess Who

Luke/Mara/Ben -- Real Love -- The Beatles

Jabba -- I Am The Walrus -- The Beatles

Streen -- Dock on the Bay

Kam Solusar -- Good Lovin'

Kyp Durron -- Superfly (he has the ego to fit)

Jag Fel --Suzy Q -- CCR

General Fel/Wedge Antilies, The Rogues -- Green Onions

Corran Horn -- Johnny B. Goode -- Chuck Berry

-------------------------------------------------

More to come later. Think of what I have recommended.

 

Anakin for Tahiri - "Something" by The Beatles

R.

 

For those wondering about the rammstien song..."Du Hasst" (their song but spelled with an esset(sp?)) means YOU HATE. If it was "you have" it would be Du Hast, as the "du" or you form of the verb "haben" which means "to have". Just clarifying that up.

Anyways, my picks....
The Emperor Palpatine - Anthrax: I'm The Law
The New Republic - Tin Tin Out: Here's Where The Story Ends
Luke Skywalker - Bob Seger: Turn The Page or Metallica: Hero of the Day
Mara Jade Skywalker - any "b*tchy" song will do
Darth Vader - Methodman: Judgement Day
Lando Calarissian - (prior to going legit) Michael Jackson: Smooth Criminal
Kyp Durron - Metallica: One
Anakin Solo - Eurythmics: Sweet Dreams
Tahiri - Gigi D-Agostino: I'll Fly With You Jaina Solo - Metallica: Fade To Black
Leia Organa Solo - Cinderella: Don't Know Whatcha Got Till It's Gone
Jacen Solo - Black Sabbath: Paranoid
Han Solo - Glen Frey: Smuggler's Blues

 

I think that kid already cleared it up. His girlfriend knew or something...

Anyway, good call with "Fade to Black" !

 

"Middle Of Yesterday" by Our Lady Peace for Jaina

 

Don't mean to be picky or anything, but Barabels don't use salt. it's the Arcona that use salt and it turns their eyes yellow.

Disclaimer #2: Sometimes the title fits the character rather than the song itself.
