Fan-fic soundtracks

Curious about the title of this thread? It's simple, imagine if your fanfictions were either movies or TV shows with music you hear from your everyday life. Just simply list your fanfic(s) in which you've chosen to give a soundtrack to and what songs you've chosen. Name the artist and title of the song and what soundtrack they might've come from if they have. This is a simple idea that I came up with on another forum.

My whole story, DoMT - Darkness of My Tears - was inspired by Maroon5, who I love totally, and their awesome "She Will Be Loved." So obviously, it's in the soundtrack I wrote up. Yeah I remember that you made that idea in the Fan Fic Club...

Maroon5 - She will be loved
Jessica Simpson - With you
Britney Spears - (that one that goes i guess i need u baby)
Maroon5 - This Love
Jewel - Intuition
Avril - My Happy Ending
Three Days Grace - I Hate Everything About You
Starsailor (don't ask if you don't know them) - Four to the Floor\
Delta Goodrem (fan!!!) - Throw it away (only on Delta's album Innocent eyes at the moment)
Anastacia - Sick and Tired
Simple Plan - Addicted to You

why?
She will be loved - duh. it inspired the whole thing.
with you - misty + ross (won't tell more read it for yourself if you want to know why)
BS song - same as 'with you'
This love - misty is basically shattered by her relationship with ash, and so is may
starsailor - 4 to the floor - cause it says 'you would be my girl' (Ross proposes to Misty, shan't tell any more) and i choose songs with a cold timbre or songs with fitting lyrics, or both - although i haven't written this part yet really. Besides, I dig the song.
3 days grace - misty hates ash and another character shan't tell you yet other than may
intuition - not only is it a cool song misty makes up her mind to turn her affections on a guy who likes him which i reckon is intuition
my happy ending - well i can't tell you why at the moment it will give the next chapter away
delta - throw it away is about love wasted and, well, duh, see INTUITION
sick and tired - misty gets sick and tired, of well, many things. See story.
Simple Plan - Addicted you is about broken hearts after being addicted to someone, which is precisely what Misty and May are going through.

The track is growing currently! :)

I've listened to tons of anime and game music when I'm both writing my fic and thinking up ideas for it, and a ton of songs do inspire me in one way or another. However, if my fic were actually an anime (I can dream, can't I?), like all anime, I'd like a completely original sound track to it. Since that's not likely to happen, though, I can say there are a ton of existing pieces that could fit nicely into certain scenes. Off the top of my head, though, I can only think of few (however, I don't know the names to most of the pieces I find fitting). Be warned, if you're interested in my fic but haven't read up to the latest chapters yet, there'll be some very very heavy spoilers.




-And of course, there should no music playing at all for many scenes. Silence has a nice effect that counts towards many things, peacefulness, terror, suspense, sadness, realism, and many more.

EDIT: Lately, I've been saying a lot of stuff about not having spoilers from my old version, not even so much as a spoiler bar, and I just remembered I made this post a couple weeks before I even started my revision. So, I editted this post as such so it won't give anymore spoilers. When the revision gets up to a certain point, I will repost whatever music I suggested for a certain scene. Until then, I'm only leaving up the comment about having silence, since it's obviously not spoilers. In case you're curious about what BGMs I suggested, and not what scenes they play for, I thought of the following. Let it be known, I am not an expert when it comes to most non-lyrical BGM titles.

-The piece in Sailor Moon S that plays both when Super Sailor Moon first appears and when the Inner Senshi put up a barrier around the Death Busters' base.
-"Mephismon Fukkatsu" (I happen to know the name of this one), it's a BGM from the Digimon Tamers movie, The Adventurers' Battle. In both the movie and parts of the series, this piece played during very climactic scenes or when some large terrifying threat appears.
-This jazzy, fast-paced BGM from Outlaw Star which played during a lot of comical scenes. It's been a while since I watched the series, but an example I recall it playing was in the hot springs episode. I think it played when Gene was climbing the mountain and kept springing traps.

Some songs from "Heroes of Legend" are songs from various anime and games

"You Belong to My Heart" (don't remember who it's by) Just a love song for Brock to see when he's trying out his power of song (that's a nod to Celebi being the voice of the forest; and Brock gets the powers of Celebi.)
"Suteki Da Ne" (FFX theme)
"Hold On to Your Dream" (Magic Knight Rayearth season 1 OP)
"I Wanna Be a Hero" (Pokemon Advance OP)
"Kirai*Sailor Dream!" (live Sailor Moon OP)
"My Sweet Heart" (Tokyo Mew Mew OP)
"Epona no Uta" (Zelda: Ocarina of Time)

and a LOT more!

I have a very limited knowledge of modern music. Could someone read my fanfic and make it a soundtrack? Please?
 

WaterTrainer243

Veteran Water Lover
Elite Eevee, you have to make up the soundtrack. You can use modern day music or music from the 90's, 80's, 70's, etc. So don't ask others for help.

Well, here's some:
Prolougue: Throw It All Away- Kenechi Tokoi
Etasi's Theme: N.Y.C Tripin- Soul Ballet
Darris' Theme: Good Times- Finger 11
Monorail scene: Take the A Train

:D I'm cheating. My fic is based on a musical, so I have a pre-made soundtrack all ready. Not all of the songs make sense in a Pokemon setting, though... and I guess I could stick in a few extra songs... so the finished product would probably go something like this:

I'll Know (May and Drew, chapter 3)
Adelaide's Lament (or Misty's Lament, as the case may be. Misty, chapter 4)
Guys and Dolls (Jessie, James and Meowth, chapter 5)
The Way You Look Tonight* (singer aboard the St. Anne, chapter 8)
As Time Goes By* (same as above)
If I Were a Bell (May, chapter 9)
My Time Of Day (Drew, chapter 9)
I've Never Been in Love Before (May and Drew, chapter 9)
Take Back Your Mink (Lily and the Water Flowers, chapter 10)
Adelaide's Second Lament (Misty, chapter 10)
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes* (May, chapter 10)
More I Cannot Wish You (Norman, chapter 10)
Luck, Be a Lady (Drew, chapter 11)
Sue Me (Misty and Ash, chapter 12)
Sit Down, You're Rocking the Boat (Jessie, James and Meowth, chapter 12)
Adelaide Meets Sarah (or rather, Misty Meets May. Chapter 13)
Marry the Man Today (Misty and May, chapter 13)
Guys and Dolls, reprise (whole cast, epilogue)


* denotes songs not in the musical.

Well, that was my totally self-indulgent bout of fic-pimpage for the day. I feel especially bad as I haven't actually written more than one chapter so far. Oh well.

umm.... since I listen to lots of hard rock/metal music, my fanfics or original fictions have to have a reference to the relative bands. In this case, I listen to the musics of Guilty Gear while writing down fanfics (mostly Guilty Gear-based). Here are some of the musics that inspire me:

- Holy Orders (Be Just Or Be Dead)
- Meet Again
- The Midnight Carnival. This track is used mostly in the height of a final/ultimate battle.
- Writhe in Pain
- Awe of She
- Bloodstained Lineage

p/s: I haven't been here for a while, so spare with me.. @__@;;;

I'm glad that I found this thread, because I woulda wasted time making my own thread and it would have probably gotten closed.

Pokemon: Johto Generations

Clocks, Coldplay - Travis's Theme. I love this song.
Alive, P.O.D. - Shiro's Theme.
Breakaway, Kelly Clarkson - Katrina's Theme. This song has such a nice sound to it.

So Cold, Breaking Benjamin - Nate's Theme. This song is creepy.

Satellite, P.O.D. - Travis' "Successor" Theme.
Way Away, Yellowcard - "Adventure" Theme.
Last Train Home, lostprophets - Quick "Travis & Katrina" Theme

That's all I have for now 'cause I have to get off. CYA!

I WAS FROZEN TODAY!!
Personally, I found one for ZeldaFan20's To the Rainbow's End...

Everybody hurts by REM

Reason: This the most emotional story I've ever come across. Ash has been suffering a lot after he found out that his own dad was the leader of Team Rocket.

Lyrics:
When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
when you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on.
Don't let yourself go, everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes.

Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along.
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
if you feel like letting go, (hold on)
when you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on.

Everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends.
Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand.
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
when you think you've had too much of this life to hang on.

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes.
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on.
Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on. (repeat & fade)
(Everybody hurts. You are not alone.)


I also thought another possible theme song for one of the forum's and my favourite: Water Spirit 's Fate and Destiny of Friends

All this time by Michelle McManus

Reason: Misty returns to Ash's life once again. There were a couple of times where the gang reflected on their past.

Lyrics:
This time yesterday,
I thought I was gonna die,
Standing at the edge,
Of my ordinary life.
Now I'm looking far ahead,
I only see clear blue skies,
I hope this feeling lasts,
Until the end of the time.

[Bridge]
Now I don't see the things that bring me down, like I used to (no),
There were times I felt like giving up, but we came through

[Chorus]
All this time, we've come a long long way,
I waited a life time for today,
I'm praying this moment's here to stay,
All this time, when everyone else said I was wrong,
You gave me a reason to be strong,
You gave me the will to carry on,
All this time

I kiss(?) my moods away,
Yesterday's far behind,
All these clouds have died,
A crater on my mind,
I was looking far ahead,
I'm looking with brand new eyes,
Well, I can't see the future,
But I know it's looking bright,

[Bridge 2]
Never thought we could survive, but we've come through (no),
There were times we felt like giving up, but we held through

[Chorus]
All this time, we've come a long long way,
I waited a life time for today,
I'm praying this moment's here to stay,
All this time, when everyone else said I was wrong,
You gave me a reason to be strong,
You gave me the will to carry on,
All this time

It's like a second chance at life,
So many people passing by,
And you know it's a shame,
'Cause they can't believe,
So they don't and they won't even try,
With every battle that's been won,
With every little thing I've done,
But I couldn't see, it's not clear to me,

All this time, we've come a long long way,
I waited a life time for today, I'm praying this moment's here to stay...

All this time, we've come a long long way,
I waited a life time for today,
I'm praying this moment's here to stay,
All this time, when everyone else said I was wrong,
You gave me a reason to be strong,
You gave me the will to carry on,
All this time


And I won't forget my fanfiction, Pokemon Impact, which is now re-written it's FF.net (I'm having a little bit of trouble placing that fanfic here)...

Crack Addict by Limp Bizkit

Reason: The category of my fanfiction is action / adventure / thriller. The main character has the potential to become a pokemon master but he would rather have private battles rather than entering tournaments.

3... 2... 1...

Here we go again
Right now
Let's go
Me and You
Toe to toe
So We Can Rock

Here we go again

You see its one for the trouble
And two for the time
One for the trouble
And two for the time
One for the trouble
And two for the time
Come on y'all and let's rock

Now I'm gonna full up my lungs with some potage
Turn the mic into a flame

Super heavy
Build like a Chevy
and I ain't really mad at the "hey hey"
Round Two
you ready for a break?
you keep on talking I'm gonna
break you up something like this
full throttle
better be prepared
coming with the kick and the snare
Apocalypse now
Whose Talking (BEEP) now
Gimme the countdown
3... 2... 1...

Here we go again
Right now
Let's go
Me and You
Toe to toe
So We Can Rock
We Can Roll
Here we go again
Right now
Let's go
Me and You
Toe to toe
So We Can Rock
We Can Roll

I want to throw you
A tinted face right now
Not Really Sure that
Not really sure I know how
Gonna try
Gonna try
Give you piece of my mind
Gonna try
Gonna try
And I hope you don't mind
I'm a crack addict
That's right I'm a crack addict
You heard me I'm a crack addict
I'm addicted to crackin sculls which cause a lot of static
It's time to panic
I'm addicted to crackin sculls which cause a lot of static
It's time to panic
I'm addicted to crackin sculls which cause a lot of static

Here we go again
Right now
Let's go
Me and You
Toe to toe
So We Can Rock
We Can Roll
Here we go again
Right now
Let's go
Me and You
Toe to toe
So We Can Rock

Oooooh, are we allowed to write out the lyrics to our soundtracks? I've always wanted to do the Ash/Misty version of 'Sue Me'... plus, one of my ultimate aims in life is convert everybody to Guys and Dolls, and lyric posts might help! ^_~
