I have to ask, have any of you ever heard a song that just randomly reminded you of LGW? I was listening to 'Hear You Me' by Jimmy Eat World and it always makes me think about the book. Any similar experiences? :confused:

Well, my choices are a bit unconventional... I personally connect LGW to two songs, both composed by Japanese artist Yuki Kajiura. The first, "Pearls", is performed by Ilaria Graziano in Italian. I've never been able to find a translation of the lyrics, but the song nonetheless reminds me of the elder Alyss. If I can find a link that'll let people sample it I'll post it here.
The second song is "Salva Nos", performed by Japanese soprano Yuri Kasahara. There are multiple versions of this song; the one I prefer is the 6-minute sung in a rock opera style, and considering the title ('Save Us' in Latin) I found it appropriate for the 13 years of Redd's reign. A site that lets you listen to Salva Nos for anyone who's interested: http://egocentric.free.fr/?p=17

I have a few:
More Human Than Human - Rob Zombie: There is a particular mix I have that reminds me of the Cat.
Fields of Innocence - Evanescence: Kind of an Alyss/Dodge thing...leaning to the Alyss perspective.
To Myself I Turned - Lacuna Coil: Another Alyss-type song to me, especially around the time she starts to doubt and even renounce her Wonderland heritage.
Hell's Bells - AC/DC: If Redd had a car, I think she'd play this at full blast, especially the beginning.
I'm sure there would be more, but I have to sort through the collection to be sure.

Hmm, another unconventional one from me:
"Electricity" From Billy Elliot the Musical :P
I love the lyrics - keep making me think of Alyss. I think the OCR (Original Cast Recording) version of the young boy singing it is better than the version where Elton John does it, hearing the raw voice of a child makes it more passionate...

Yeah, this is kinda lame, and obvious, but the only song I've heard that reminds me of LGW is "The Looking Glass" by hypnogaja; a song that was, in fact, inspired by LGW...

Well, I thought about it a wee bit, and I think that a lot of Switchfoot's songs work well with is.
I.E.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=72FkCoJfhgU - Meant to Live: This one works for Dodge =D
http://youtube.com/watch?v=fDQfrF1V_eU - This one is, like, PERFECT for Alyss. It makes me think of her older self dwelling on the past (before she becomes queen).
Long Live Alyss

The song "The Perfect Fit" by the Dresden Dolls reminds me of it. I don't know why, but it does.

"Imaginary" by Evanescence makes me think of the book a lot. I have no idea why :P

This song reminds me of Alyss and Dodge when he comes back to get her and they fight the Cheshire Cat and they come back through the pool and all that goodness. Yay for Utada Hikaru.:D

I know everyone will laugh when I say this but.... Meet the Creeper by Rob Zombie makes me think of Alice in Wonderland. I remember seeing a AMV on Youtube withthis song and the 1999 Alice in Wonderland in the background. It just stuck with me. If anyone wants a link send me a message.

the song looking at you through the glass by stone sour reminds me of when alyss was in the looking glass maze
Queen Alyss Heart
07-26-2007, 12:34 PM
I don't know why but the song
Undertaker 2 by Puscifer ( other wise known as Maynard James Keenan)
When I hear it, I picture the fight scene between Redd and Alyss at the end. It's sort of in Alyss' perspective.
the lyrics are thus
Thank You for making me
feel like I'm guilty
Making it easy to murder your sweet memory
You were way out of line,
went and turned it all around on me again
How can I not smell your lie
Through the smoke and arrogance.
But now I know
So you will not get away with it again
I'm distant in those hollow eyes
For I have reached my end. So...
Thank You for making me
feel like I'm guilty
Making it easy to murder your sweet memory
Before I go tell me
Were you ever who you claimed yourself to be
Either way i must say goodbye.
You're dead to me. So I...
Thank You for making me
feel like I'm guilty
Making it easy to murder your sweet memory
I'm severing the heart then I'm leaving your corpse behind
Not dead but soon to be, though.
I won't be the one who killed you
I'll just leave that up to you
I'm not gonna be here to revive you
I'm not gonna be here to revive you
I'm not gonna be here to revive you
I'm gonna be the one to say...
I told you so (X8)
I told you
Severing the heart then I'm leaving you corpse behind
Not dead but soon to be and
I'm gonna be the one to say I told you so

"Hey Sister Pretty" by Hootie and the Blowfish
Something so innocent,
began then came and went
keeps coming back to around to haunt you in the end.
You think we're fighting now,
it's all the same somehow,
loves tortured all artist wrecks the masterpeice again.
Used to be clear what the looking glass said,
now everythings hazzy baby nothings making sense.
Hey sister pretty, your lips are on the city,
everybodys waiting for the honeymoon to end.
I'm still trying to stop this thing from dying,
don't forget to kiss me before you beat me up again.
Nothing so powerful yet so frustrating,
Nothing so personal as a gift thats from your heart.
Nothing so damaging so devestating,
Nothing so closer yet so far apart.
It used to be clear what the looking glass said,
now everythings hazzy baby nothings making sense.
Hey sister pretty, your lips are on the city,
everybodys waiting for the honeymoon to end.
I'm still trying to stop this thing from dying,
don't forget to kiss me before you beat me up again.
Hey sister pretty, your lips are on the city,
everybodys waiting for the honeymoon to end.
I'm still trying to stop this thing from dying,
Don't forget to kiss me before you beat me up again.
Don't forget to kiss me before you beat me up you beat me up again

Well, I have several actually.
When I think of Dodge (before Alyss comes back) I think of "I Miss You" by Blink 182. The link below takes you to the video, the lyrics are below the link.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYEM68HIm0Y
(I miss you miss you)
Hello there the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in backround of the morgue
The unsespecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never end
Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness comes creeping on so haunting everytime
And as I stared I counted the webs from all the spiders
catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
And hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
stop this pain tonight
Don't waste your time on me your already the voice inside my head(6x)
I miss you miss you(6x)
**It just seems so like that he was thinking and going through while she was gone. Angel from his nightmares...she was the angel in his nightmares about what happened the day she disappeared. Shadow in the background of the morgue...obvious, no one knew if she was truly dead or not, though they suspected it. From there I think you can decipher what I was thinking, but I just like how the song echos what Dodge went through.**
As far as just score music. I often think of Midnight Syndicate intrumental scores playing in the background of battles and...anything really, I just love their sound and it fits so well with ceratin parts of the book. You can listen to the music and see scenes play out from the book. It's cool that you can listen to them and just SEE what part of the book they would be perfect for. A few that I like from Midnight Syndicate for the book are: Halls of Insurrection, Alternative Therapy, Gates of Delirium (I think of Redd brooding) and Winged Fury.
I have others, but that's the only one I can pull to my mind at this time. I'll post another time for others.

Gwen Stefani's " Wonderful Life" from her album "The Sweet Escape" totally reminds me of Alyss' and Dodge's relationship!:D Wonderful Life lyrics by Gwen Stefani.
I haven't thought of you
For years you know
Your memory seems to come and go
Our time meant so much to me
Now you can't be found
You were the first to want me
The first to love me
The first to need me
Who was the last to know you
The last to love you
The last to hold you
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Such a wonderful, wonderful life
I thought of you again today
Reminding me how our time have changed
If you only knew what you gave to me
Now you can't be found
And you were the first I trusted
I learned what love is
When we were just kids
[ Wonderful Life lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]
When did you kiss the last time
How could you think you'd be better off
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Why'd you have to say goodbye
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Such a wonderful, wonderful life
Thank you for those special moments
You will always be here, in my mind
And did you know you changed my life
I'm thankful for that time
I'm thankful for that time
I'm thankful for that time
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Why'd you have to say goodbye
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
I'm asking why but I'll never know
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Why'd you have to say goodbye
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Such a wonderful, wonderful life
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
Such a wonderful, wonderful life
Here is a link just to listen to it : )

There's another kid out there, can't think of where I found him, who has been drumming since he was a baby. I think he's two now and has done public appearances and stuff. Sadly, I've forgotten his website.
But yes...child prodigies..the kind of thing that definitely would have "GLOW" all over it, possibly....

Everything That You Ever Wanted by Hawk Nelson made me think of Dodge and how he was striving to be an example like his father but his emotions on killing The Cat got the better of him. The lyrics for the chorus are down below.
I tried to be perfect
I tried to be honest
I tried to be everything that you ever wanted
I tried to be stronger
I tried to be smarter
I tried to be everything that you ever wanted
The song is actually about this kid who's father abanded him and his mother. Of course, Dodge's father didn't abandon him but you get the point, that Dodge was trying to be like his dad.
Another song I though of was I'm Not Alright by Sanctus Real. It made me think of how Alyss and Doge weren't "alright" and how they each needed somebody, whether it was their parents or each other. Here is the complete lyrics for that song.
If weakness is a wound
That no one wants to speak of
Then “cool” is just how far we have to fall
I am not immune
I only want to be loved
But I feel safe behind the firewall
Can I lose my need to impress?
If you want the truth, I need to confess
I’m not alright
I’m broken inside, broken inside
And all I go through
It leads me to you, it leads me to you
Burn away the pride
Bring me to my weakness
Until everything I hide behind is gone
And when I’m open wide
With nothing left to cling to
Only you are there to lead me on
Cause honestly, I’m not that strong
I’m not alright
I’m broken inside, broken inside
And all I go through
It leads me to you, it leads me to you
And I move, and I move, and I move...closer to you
And I move, and I move, and I move...closer to you
And I move, and I move, and I move...closer to you
And I move, and I move, and I move...
I’m not alright
I’m broken inside, broken inside
broken inside, broken inside
And all I go through
Leads me to you, leads me to you
I’m not alright, I’m not alright, I’m not alright...that’s why I need you
Both of these song can be found on itunes and YouTube.

I've got two more: "The World You Love" and "Futures", both by Jimmy Eat World. (There's just something about this band that puts me in the mood for LGW...)
"The World You Love" is for Molly and Hatter (mostly Molly). "Futures" is for Alyss and Dodge.
Any PARAMORE song reminds me of these books im reading.
1.the looking glass wars
2.twilight (and sequels)

Kryptonite-by Three Doors Down-reminds me of when everyone is expecting Alyss to step up and defeat Redd.
Shadow of the Day-by Linkin Park-reminds me of when Alyss' parents get killed and she gives up hope on returning to Wonderland.
Numb-by Linkin Park-also reminds me of when everyone is expecting so much of Alyss

OKay so these song srsly reming me of LGW
Title Artist Album
Waiting- Shiny Toy Guns- We Are Pilots
Jackie Will Save Me- Shiny Toy Guns- We Are Pilots
We Are Pilots- Shiny Toy Guns- We Are Pilots
Rainy Monday- Shiny Toy Guns- We Are Pilots
Jackie Will Save Me, makes me think of Jack of Diamonds.... lolz obviously, check out the lyrics and you'll see what i mean
We Are Pilots reminds me of Alice, when the Liddells are convinced she's crazy when she knows she's not, and she enters wonderland and she begins to actually believe in herself again.
Waiting, well idk why it just makes me think of LGW, i guess 'cause i started reading the book while this song was on repeat.... lolz!
Rainy Monday, it's kinda like Dodge is talking through this song, to me it seems that way. He just found out that Alyss is alive, and he's reminising of the love they once had when they were young, and those emotions are coming alive again, he's sad yet at the same time he's relieved.
These are Just To name a few... :D

Bittersweet Symphony by the Verve Pipe. reminds me of the end of Seeing Redd when Alyss lies to Dodge about the caterpillars phrophecy and then Dodge runs off trying to kill the cat
Don't know why, it seems appropriate somehow.

Yet again i return to this thread with more music.
Lots of All American Rejects(AAA)^^
Top of the World-AAA-When Alyss thinks that she cant defeat Redd(dnt be fooled, it starts out wierd)
It Ends Tonight-AAA-When ALyss fights Redd
Dirty Little Secret-AAA-When Dodge and ALyss are trying to hide the fact that they love each other
Dare You to Move-Switchfoot-When Alyss is trying to get back her imagination
Sugar We're Goin Down-Fall Out Boy-When Dodge is trying to kill the cat in the second book and Alyss is protecting him
Perfect-Simple Plan-This song, to, me relates so much to these books. There is a line that goes: Did I grow up according to plan? That reminds me of when Alyss is talking to her parents in the looking glass maze and she is unsure of herself. Another line: I'm sorry, I can't be, Perfect. Reminds me of when everyone expects so much of Alyss
And, as promised, the videos!

WOOT for Kingdom Hearts/Utada fans! :p Although Simple and Clean reminds me more of the beginning when they're separated. And Passion/Sanctuary probably fits in there somewhere in one of those Alice--whoah, I did NOT just spell her name wrong!--Alyss and Dodge scenes, hehe.

In the car on the way to work thinking about this thread this morning and "Miracles" by The Pet Shop Boys came on and I thought it made an almost perfect lament for a heart broken Bibwit, mourning his Queen and praying for the return of his Princess...
Clouds drift away when they see you
Rain wouldn't dare to fall near you here
Miracles happen when you're around
Somehow the grass is much greener
Rivers flow faster and cleaner
Being with you no matter where
sunlight breaks through
and suddenly there's
A bluer sky, whenever you're around
You always bring a bluer sky
a brighter day
Thunder is silent before you
Roses bloom more to adore you too
Miracles happen when you're around
The sunset is deeper and longer
The scent of the jasmine is stronger
Stray dogs don't bite
Birds start to sing
Lightening daren't strike
You suddenly bring
A bluer sky, whenever you're around
You always bring a bluer sky
a brighter day
Birds fly even higher in the sky
Sun shines
It's a new day

"Far Away" by Nickelback always makes me think of Alyss and Dogde whenever I hear it.
I'm sure pretty much everyone knows this song, but here are the lyrics anyway.
This time. This place.
Misused. Mistakes.
Too long. Too late.
Who was I to make you wait?
Just one chance,
Just one breath,
Just in case there's just one left.
'Cause you know,
you know, you know.
[CHORUS]
That I love you.
I have loved you all along.
And I miss you.
Been far away for far too long.
I keep dreaming you'll be with me,
and you'll never go.
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore.
On my knees, I'll ask,
Last chance for one last dance.
'Cause with you, I'd withstand,
All of hell to hold your hand.
I'd give it all,
I'd give for us,
Give anything but I won't give up.
'Cause you know,
you know, you know.
[CHORUS]
So far away.
Been far away, for far too long.
So far away,
Been far away, for far too long.
But you know, you know, you know.
I wanted.
I wanted you to stay.
'Cause I needed.
I need to hear you say.
That I love you,
I have loved you all along.
And I forgive you,
For being away for far too long.
So keep breathing,
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore.
Believe it,
Hold on to me and, never let me go.
Keep breathing,
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore.
Believe it,
Hold on to me and, never let me go.
Keep breathing,
Hold on to me and, never let me go.
Keep breathing,
Hold on to me and, never let me go.

I know these aren't popular songs or anything, but for band we played a song entitled "Balkanya" by Jan Van Der Roost and it sounds almost as it could be an instrumental track for the book. There is also a passage in another song that we performed called "Pablo!" that sounds like it could be Alyss & Dodge's theme.

The song is 'Dream' by Dope. To me, when I envision LGW while listening to it, I can see a collage of Dodge and Alyss' troubles during their youth, Dodge in Wonderland, Alyss in London. Then, at the end, them reconnecting to take the throne back.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=fDQnkYwfNfk
There is one for Dodge. The song is 'Home' by Michael Buble.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=6br_J4UpvHY
:P ... Another one for Alyss. The song is 'From the Heart' by Hoobastank. I think it's a perfect name dealing with Alyss as well.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=-oSnjGG0JyM&feature=related
This song, 'Let It Out' by Hoobastank totally encompassed Dodge's years while Alyss was missing. Since he let anger consume himself, the lyrics really speak for what he felt.

This'll come out seeming really sappy, but listening to The Years Between by Russ Barenberg, Jerry Douglas and Edgar Meyer, reminds me of that bit in Seeing Redd where Dodge and Alyss are having breakfast...
Quiet little acoustic instrumental track with some nice backing from a dobro and acoustic bass.
Also it's in no way mainstream, so I won't be surprised if not many peoples have heard of it.

I have found yet another song that reminds me of LGW, it doesn't exactly fit but i think it would work in all of the crazy parts of the books.
Syncrotone-Hans Zimmer
In case you didn't know, I also like a little classical music, but Hans Zimmer gives it a twist, that is why he is my favorite composer.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlXVBZmnfcU
The song is from black hawk down as you will see and is more of a techno kind of a song, using a wide variety of strange instraments.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukf9r9-Hr_0&feature=related
This song is Up Is Down, it is actually from Pirates of the Carrebean and only around 30 seconds of the song made it into the movie, which is sad since it is such a good song. This song reminds me of what Dodge and Alyss will do to save each other.

I bet you all thought I was done!!! But no! I have more!
Rise Above This-Seether-Reminds me of when Dodge hated himself for losing Alysshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NO2nqcN3EGg(video about his brother, who, during the making of song, commited suicide):(
Love Remains the Same-Gavin Rossdale-Reminds me of when Alyss and Dodge are reunitedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8R8Qvm24dbUslightly wierd vid
Rythm of Life-Hugh Harris-Reminds me of all the happy times in the books(very moving song, also in the movie Uncle Buck. Couldn't find a good vid for this one sry, will try to get song tho):)
I'm sure many of you have noticed my choice of music and I thought it would be nice to let you have access to my Project Playlist page so that you could all enjoy my (in my opinion) good choice of music without the risk of accessing YouTube.

I don't know about you guys, but I very recently discovered a singer by the name of Mandi Perkins, whose debut album is called "Alice In No Man's Land." The title song is cool, and not only contains tons of AiW references, but makes me think of when Alyss was in London. When it says "...look to the Queen of Hearts for an answer..." I think of Alyss wanting to talk to Geniveve for advice and wanting a mother's shoulder to cry on.
Thought I should tell you guys about my find!

Tori Amos: Raining Blood
Awaiting reprisal
Death will be their acquisition
The sky is turning red
Return to power draws near
Fall into me, the sky's crimson tears
Abolish the rules made of stone
Pierced from below, souls of my treacherous past
Betrayed by many, now ornaments dripping above
Awaiting the hour of reprisal
Your time slips away
Raining blood
From a lacerated sky
Bleeding its horror
Creating my structure
Now I shall reign in blood
Right before marching in on Wonderland, I think.
And incidentally, it's a cover of Slayer. Dood.

I think you've discovered Redd's theme song.

Do to my recent dive into the world of classical I have found my new favorite and I think (because one peice of classical can cover such a wide range of emotions) it covers a lot of the sad and emotional times along with the battles and slightly reminds me of how people feel after a large battle, sort of a 'what have I done?' feeling:

I found this YouTube vid that you can hear the song in. The imagery could be considered a bit spooky (the videographer seemed to be into using churches and church depictions of things like the Crucifixion), but I figured it was better than the alternative of just a shot of Tori Amos through the whole thing...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QY6cIlCOvx8
But yes...this is one of my staples. It's dark and twisted, just like Redd, but not metal-intense as the Slayer original version (though I am sure Redd would put that song in her favorite red sports car and drive all over hurting eardrums XD )

THANK YOU! I couldn't remember who the original was and once you said Slayer, my fingers hurt. That song is HARD on Guitar Hero III.
I like Tori's version of it though, definitely darker, more chilling version of it. Fits Redd very nicely. LOL

Okay, I know this thread has been kinda dead for awhile, but yesterday I added a song to my mp3 player and it made me think of Redd. To be more exact, it made me think of young Princess Redd, when she was always sneaking off to party with young Arch and her mother was trying to control her. The song is "Nothin' Better to Do" by LeeAnn Rimes.
Hung my cotton dress on rusted wire
Up there on Pilahatchee Bridge
Just a crazy roughneck's daughter
Jumped head-first into the water
Baptized away my sins
Hitched to town with Bobby Jo and Tommy
Couple of lookers, new best friends
We slipped in the back of Sunday service
Know them church ladies, they heard us
Bum smoke money from the offering
Mama said, "Idle hands are Devil's handywork"
Oh, the trouble you'll get into
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
Yeah!
Oh, yeah
Sign read: BAIT, CHIPS BEER and AMMUNITION
That Slim-Jim bag boy hadn't a prayer
Well I hiked my skirt and did the talkin'
While them boys were busy walkin'
Case of .5 out the back door
Hid deep in the Mississippi backwoods
We danced and played around 'til dark
Well I had them wrestlin' for my first kiss
Turned into a fight and they missed
Me speeding off in Tommy's car
Mama said, "Idle hands are Devil's handywork"
Oh, the trouble you'll get into
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
Yeah!
Nobody hurt, nobody harmed
Nobody's busines but my own
Mama said, "Idle hands are Devil's handwork
Oh, the trouble you'll get into!"
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
You got nothin' better to do, got nothin' better to do
Yeah!
Oh, yeah
Got nothin' better to do, babe
Got nothin' better to do
You got nothin' better to do, babe
Ya got nothin' better to do, no no
Got nothin' better to do!
Ya got nothin' better to do, no no
Got nothin' better to do!
You got nothin' better to do, no no!
I know a lot of it is very UN-Redd, such as the whole bit about stealing stuff on the run (Redd never did that!) But the whole bit about swiping stuff from Church reminds me of Redd's obvious disrespect for the, well, pretty much the religion of Wonderland- White Imagination. And the way she ends up using the boys and then dumping them is just... IDK... kinda Reddish. It reminds me about how she would sneak out to hang with Arch but obviously never honestly cared for him. Not to mention the whole bit about how the mother warned her about being idle leads into trouble.

Nice song, but I think When Your Gone- Avril Lavign fits because this is kind of how Dodge feels when Alyss is gone; vise versa for Alyss, but only for part of the book like when she was still a child that believed in Wonderland:
I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now
[Chorus]
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I'd do, I'd give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me, yeah
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you

Oh, yes, absolutely; that song is perfect and I also happen to LOVE IT! My friends and I often amuse ourselves by singing that song and trying to hit the high notes. :D I can do it, but sometimes it just about KILLS my throat. I am SUCH a big fan of Avril Lavigne; it's not even funny. Personally, I think Avril's first album, "Let Go" (the one she released when she was 17) is all Homburg Molly music. The spunk. The attitude. Whatever you may want to call it. But when I want to get into character for Molly, that's what I listen to.

Okay, here's some more.
I think "Umbrella" by Rihanna (minus the part in the beginning by Jay-Z!) is like Alyss talking to Dodge.
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
May be in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because
[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for Infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Because
[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
You can run into my arms
It's OK don't be alarmed
Come here to me
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because
[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
It's raining
Ooh baby it's raining
Baby come here to me
Come here to me
It's raining
Oh baby it's raining

there's a song by Jewel called goodbye alice in wonderland and it reminds me of when alice is adopted and tries to forget wonderland and her mum and dodge.
I love it!
Check it out!
Sounds cool! Is there any way you could find the lyrics and post 'em here?

like i said this song would be good for when alyss is forced to forget about wonderland and alienate her imagination.
Its mainly the chorus that would go but the rest is good to although its a big stretch
It's four in the afternoon
I'm on a flight leaving L.A.
Trying to figure out my life and
My youth scattered along the highway
Hotel rooms and headlights
I've made a living with a song
Guitar as my companion
Wanting desperately to belong
Fame is filled with spoiled children
we grow fat on fantasy
I guess that's why I'm leaving
I crave reality
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
what’s been missing in my life
I'm embarrassed to say the rest is a rock and roll cliché
I hit the bottom when I reached the top
but I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me
But you did not
Yes, a heart can hallucinate
If it's completely starved for love
It can even turn monsters into
Angels from above
You forged my love just like a weapon
And turned it against me like a knife
You broke my last heartstring
But you opened up my eyes
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland
Goodbye yellow brick road
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
That was not love in your eyes
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind searching
For what’s been missing in my life
And growing up is not an absence of dreaming
Its being able to understand the difference between
The ones you can hold and the ones that you've been sold
But dreaming is a good thing
Cause it brings new things to life
Pretending is an ending
That perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are
Seeing for what you've been told
Truth is stranger than fiction
this is my chance to get it right
Life is much better without all of those pretty lies
So Goodbye Alice in Wonderland
You can keep your yellow brick road
Cause there is a difference between dreaming and pretending
These are not tears in my eyes
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
I've found what’s missing in my life
I tried to look for a link to show you the song but i couldnt find one... i'll keep looking though

I think the above verses in particular really do sound a lot like Alyss' struggle. And thanks so much for going through all the trouble to find the link to the song for me! Unfortunately I have dial up connection so I can't load videos over the internet. :( Bummer.

Hate how i love you by Rihanna
You need to read the lyrics to get why i think this.
That's how much I love you (yeah)
That's how much I need you (yeah, yeah, yeahah)
And I can't stand ya
Almost everything you do
Makes me wanna smile
Even I like you for a while (no... oh...)
[Ne-Yo:]
But you won't let me
You upset me girl
And then you kiss my lips
All of a sudden I forget (that I was upset)
Can't remember what you did
[Rihanna:]
But I hate it...
You know exactly what to do
So that I can't stay mad at you
For too long that's wrong
[Ne-Yo:]
But I hate it...
You know exactly how to touch
So that I don't want to fuss... and fight no more
Said I despise that I adore you
[Rihanna:]
And I hate how much I love you boy (yeah...)
I can't stand how much I need you (I need you...)
And I hate how much I love you boy (oooh whoah...)
But I just can't let you go
And I hate that I love you so (oooh...)
[Ne-Yo:]
And you completely know the power that you have
The only one that makes me laugh
[Rihanna:]
Said that it's not fair
How you take advantage of the fact
That I love you beyond the reason why (why...)
And it just ain't right
[Ne-Yo:]
And I hate how much I love you girl
I can't stand how much I need you (yeah...)
And I hate how much I love you girl
But I just can't let you go
But I hate that I love you so
[Both:]
One of these days maybe your magic won't affect me
And your kiss won't make me weak
But no one in this world knows me the way you know me
So you'll probably always have a spell on me...
[Ne-Yo:]
Yeaahhh... Oohh...
[Rihanna:]
As much I love you (as much as I need you oh...)
As much as I need you (oooh... as so much I love you)
As much I love you (oh...)
As much as I need you
[Both:]
And I hate that I love
You soooooooo!
[Rihanna:]
And I hate that I love you soooo
And I hate how much I love you boy
I can't stand how much I need ya (cant stand how much I need you)
And I hate how much I love you boy
But I just can't let you go (but I just can't let you go no...)
And I hate that I love you so
[Both:]
And I hate that I love you so... soo...

Yeah, I can kinda see that. Because they both are really in love with each other but it's not really until towards the end of Seeing Redd that they begin to accept their love.

The Call by Regina Spektor. :) (It was used in Prince Caspian)
Lyrics:
It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word
And then that word grew louder and louder
Til it was a battle cry
I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye
Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean it's never
Been this way before
All you can do is try to know
Who your friends are
As you head off to the war
Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light
You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye
You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye
Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget
Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
Til they're before your eyes
You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye
You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

Another Dodge-like song:
Here with out you - 3 doors down
homburgmolly_fan
01-30-2009, 02:26 PM
For some reason, whenever I hear "Stop and Stare" by One Republic, I think of LGW. Maybe it's just because I was listening to that song a lot when I was reading the books, but also the whole message of the song, which I take to be kind of like moving forward is like the attitude of all the good guys who are making one last push to get Alyss to power once she returns to Wonderland.
This town is colder now
I think it’s sick of us
It’s time to make our move
I’m shakin’ off the rust
I’ve got my heart set
on anywhere but here
I’m staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands just take the wheel
Every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal for the life I lead
Stop and stare
I think I’m moving, but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be
Ohhh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you’re here not there
And you’d give anything to get what’s fair
But fair ain’t what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see
They’re tryin’ to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight tags I never thought I could
Steady feet don’t fail me now,
I’m a run till you can’t walk
But something pulls my focus out, and I’m standing down.
Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be
Whoaaaaaa!!!
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you’re here not there
And you’d give anything to get what’s fair
But fair ain’t what you really need
Oh, you don’t need
ohhhhh, uhmmmm, ohhhhhh, ohhhh, uhmm
Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
I’ve become what I can’t be
Oh, do you see what I see?
Also, this song "Taking Chances" by Celine Dion reminds me of a lot of the characters in LGW. The whole "taking chances" and "jumping off the edge" without knowing where you're going to land makes me think of the entire Alyssian resistance. Other parts make me think of Hatter and Molly, Dodge, and Alyss. I'll put the parts that make me think of Dodge in green, Alyss in pink, and Molly to Hatter in blue.
Don't know much about your life.
Don't know much about your world, but
Don't want to be alone tonight,
On this planet they call earth.
You don't know about my past, and
I don't have a future figured out.
And maybe this is going too fast.
And maybe it's not meant to last,
But what do you say to taking chances,
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,
What do you say,
What do you say?
I just want to start again,
And maybe you could show me how to try,
And maybe you could take me in,
Somewhere underneath your skin?
What do you say to taking chances,
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,
What do you say,
What do you say?
And I had my heart beaten down,
But I always come back for more, yeah.
There’s nothing like love to pull you up,
When you’re laying down on the floor there.
So talk to me, talk to me,
Like lovers do.
Yeah walk with me, walk with me,
Like lovers do,
Like lovers do.
What do you say to taking chances,
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,
What do you say,
What do you say?
Don’t know much about your life
And I don’t know much about your world
Maybe I'm just weird. LOL. But that's what I thought of when I heard the song.

One song that reminds me of Alyss and Dodge when the were little and playing together is Natasha Bedingfeild's Backyard. I would really listen to the whole song, but that's just me:p
I know that it talks about toys for kids nowadays but I'm sure Alyss and Dodge had toys too.:)
Its been too long, don't think I've seen you smile at me for quite a while
Were too busy doing things we haven't noticed what's missing
Where's the fun we used to have
My childish ways and your sarcasm
Silly jokes and fairy tales
Where did we leave them?
Lost in the backyard
Your lasso my tiara
My wand, your plastic bazooka
Why can't we be how we were
In the backyard
Your cowboy hat, my tutu
You hide and seek, I catch you
Why can't we be how we were in the backyard?
Simple days of hand in hand
And drawing our names in the sand
Somehow life just complicates
Our buried treasure it just went lost
In the backyard
Chorus
You can still meet me in the garden
You and I hide behind the roses bed
You and I x 2
Lost in the backyard
Chorus

This is an interesting board. I used to edit fan vids all the time, but have kinda retired from that. LoL. But reading all these songs started to make me think about it again. =) oh, happy days.
Here's one I thought particularly stood out from my playlist for Genevieve to Alyss:
"In My Arms" by Plumb (I am IN LOVE with this song! :D It's definitely worth a listen if you've never heard it before.)
Your baby blues
So full of wonder
Your curly cues
Your contageous smile
And as I watch
You start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight
Knowing clouds will rage
And storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms
Story books full of fairy tales
Of kings and queens and the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You'll someday see the truth from lies
Knowing clouds will rage
And storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms
Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
But you are never all alone
Because I will always
Always love you
Clouds will rage
And storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Another nice call. Good one, Twinz.
Here's one that I found for Molly... her attitude when we meet her in the bar in LGW. It's called "Freak Out" by Avril Lavigne.
Try to tell me what I shouldn't do
You should know by now,
I won't listen to you
Walk around with my hands up in the air
Cause I don't care
Cause I'm alright, I'm fine
Just freak out, let it go
I'm gonna live my life
I can't ever run and hide
I won't compromise
Cause I'll never know
I'm gonna close my eyes
I can't watch the time go by
I won't keep it inside
Freak out, let it go
Just freak out, let it go
You don't always have to do everything right
Stand up for yourself
And put up a fight
walk around with your hands up in the air
Like you don't care
Cause I'm alright, I'm fine
Just freak out, let it go
I'm gonna live my life
I can't ever run and hide
I won't compromise
Cause I'll never know
I'm gonna close my eyes
I can't watch the time go by
I won't keep it inside
Freak out, let it go
On my own
Let it go
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Just let me live my life
I can't ever run and hide
I won't compromise
Cause I'll never know
I'm gonna close my eyes
I can't watch the time go by
I won't keep it inside
Freak out, let it go
Gonna freak out, let it go
Gonna freak out, let it go
Here's another one by Avril Lavigne... it's called Why. This one makes me think of Alyss when she returns to Wonderland and finds out that Dodge is not the boy she remembers, and how she doesn't even know if he even cares about her anymore.
Why, do you always do this to me?
Why, couldn't you just see through me?
How come, you act like this
Like you just don't care at all
Do you expect me to believe I was the only one to fall?
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even though you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why
It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, do you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why
Hey, listen to what we're not saying
Let's play, a different game than what we're playing
Try, to look at me and really see my heart
Do you expect me to believe I'm gonna let us fall apart?
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even when you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why
It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why
So go and think about whatever you need to think about
Go on and dream about whatever you need to dream about
And come back to me when you know just how you feel, you feel
I can feel, I can feel you near me, even though you're far away
I can feel, I can feel you baby, why
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, do you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why
I'm really glad that we're starting to get this thread going again. I think this is a really fun thread.

Most of this song doesn't apply to Wonderland But I'm going to highlight a line that reminds me of Alyss without her imagination, oh and by the way the song is Freckles by Natasha Bedingfeild
I used to care so much about what others think about
Almost didn't have a thought of my own
The slightest remark would make me embark
On the journey of self doubt
But that was a while ago
This girl has got stronger
If I knew then what I know now
I would have told myself don't worry any longer it's okay
Cause a face without freckles is like a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are
Who you are
Who you are
Who you are
I wondered if I could trade my body with somebody else in magazines
With the whole world full at my feet
I phantom worthy and would blame my failures on the ugliness I could see
When the mirror looked at me
Sometimes I feel like the little girl who doesn't belong in her own world
But I'm getting better
And I'm reminding myself
Cause a face without freckles is a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are
Reflecting who you are
Reflecting who you are
Hmmm
Whoooooo whoa hmmmm oooooo
Cause a face without freckles is a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are

Okay, here's some more songs. You guys probably won't be surprised that they are by Avril Lavigne and Taylor Swift.
First up: "Fearless" by Taylor Swift. It has some modern parts in it, like talking about cars, but the overall feel of it makes me think of Alyss to Dodge.
There's something about the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There’s a glow off the pavement
You walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you
to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot
Yeah
Oh yeah
We're drivin' down the road
I wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard
Not to get caught up now
But you're just so cool
Run your hands through your hair
Absentmindedly makin' me want you
And I don't know how
It gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why
But with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
So baby drive slow
‘Til we run out of road
In this one horse town
I wanna stay right here
In this passenger’s seat
You put your eyes on me
In this moment now
Capture it, remember it
'Cause I don't know how
It gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why
But with you I’d dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
Well you stood there
With me in the doorway
My hands shake
I'm not usually this way but
You pull me in and I’m a little more brave
It’s the first kiss,
It's flawless,
Really something,
It’s fearless
Oh yeah
'Cause I don't know how
It gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why
But with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
'Cause I don't know how
It gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why
But with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
Oh oh
Oh yeah
Next one: "Unwanted" by Avril Lavigne. This is a Molly song, mostly like how she tries so hard and yet feels so unwelcome in like the Millinery because she's a Halfer. I think the lyrics are shockingly Molly like. A lot of songs just like one verse or something fits, but this one is overall a pretty good fit for Molly feeling left out because of what she is.
All that I did was walk over
Start off by shaking your hands
That's how it went
I had a smile on my face and I sat up straight
Oh, yeah, yeah
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you
[chorus]
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away
No, I just don't understand why
you won't talk to me
It's hurts that I'm so unwanted for nothing
Don't talk words against me
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you
[chorus]
Make me go away
I tried to belong
It didn't seem wrong
My head aches
Its been so long
I'll write this song
If that's what it take
[chorus (2x)]
Make me go away
Make me go away

LOL I just thought of yet another one. Sorry about all these posts. :o
This one is "Every Day" by Rascal Flatts. It's Dodge to Alyss, like when she first came home and he was all consumed with anger and not the boy she remembered, and now this is like him to her towards the beginning of Seeing Redd... when he's starting to accept their love.
You could've bowed out gracefully
But you didn't
You knew enough to know
To leave well enough alone
But you wouldn't
I drive myself crazy
Tryin' to stay out of my own way
The messes that I make
But my secrets are so safe
The only one who gets me
Yeah, you get me
It's amazing to me
[CHORUS]
How every day
Every day, every day
You save my life
I come around all broken down and
Crowded out
And you're comfort
Sometimes the place I go
Is so deep and dark and desperate
I don't know, I don't know
[Repeat Chorus]
Sometimes I swear, I don't know if
I'm comin' or goin'
But you always say something
Without even knowin'
That I'm hangin' on to your words
With all of my might and it's alright
Yeah, I'm alright for one more night-
Every day
Every day, every day, every day
Every day, every day
You save me, you save me, oh, oh, oh
Every day
Every, every, every day-
Every day you save my life
a la mode~

With the help of the title too, Goodbye Alice In Wonderland - Jewel
It's 4 in the afternoon
I'm on a flight leaving L.A.
Trying to figure out my life
In my youth, scattered along the highway
Hotel rooms and head lights
I've made a living with a song
Guitar as my companion,
Wanting desperately to belong
Fame is filled with spoiled children
who grow fat on fantasy
I guess that's why I'm leaving
I crave reality
[CHORUS]
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland,
Goodbye yellow-brick road,
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
I did not find paradise
It was only a reflection of my lonely mind wanting
What's been missing in my life
I'm embarassed to say the rest is rock and role cliche
I hit the bottom when I reached the top
But I never knew it was you who was breaking my heart
I thought you had to love me, but you did not
Yes, a heart can halucinate
If it's completely starved for love
It can even turn monsters into angels from above
You forged my love just like a weapon
And you turned it against me like a knife
You broke my last heart string
You opened up my eyes
[CHORUS]
Growing up is not an absence of dreaming
It's being able to understand the difference between
The ones you can hold and the ones that you've been sold
And dreaming is a good thing cause it brings new things to life
But pretending is an ending that perpetuates a lie
Forgetting what you are, seeing for what you've been told
Truth is stranger than fiction
This is my chance to get it right
And life is much better without all of those pretty lies
So goodbye Alice in Wonderland,
And you can keep your yellow-brick road,
There is a difference between dreaming and pretending
These are my tears in my eyes
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
They are only a reflection of my lonely mind finding
I've found what's missing in my life

I'm an extremly musical person, so here's my LGW/SR playlist. (Note, I'm still putting it together).
"All fall down"-Onerepublic (It just reminds me of the fight for Wonderland)
"Love Story"-Taylor Swift (Alyss and Dodge :])
"Welcome to the Black Parade"-My Chemical Romance(Dodge and the Alyssians)
"Ordinary Day"-Vanessa Carlton(It reminds me of Dodge brings Alyss back to Wonderland and she realizes he's real.)
"The Ghost of You"-My Chemical Romance (Dodge without Alyss)
"Stand My Ground"-Within Temptation (Homburg Molly's song)
"Look After you"-The Fray (Alyss and Dodge in Seeing Redd)
"This is how I disappear"-My Chemical Romance (Dodge v.s the Cat)
"When you're gone"-Avril Lavigne (Hatter/Weaver & Alyss/Dodge. After Redd's coup and how they're separated from each other, and they miss each other. [ironically enough, in the music video there's even a pregnant woman missing her soldier man. Remind you of anybody?])
"You found me"-The Fray (Alyss and Dodge and how they curb each other's worst impulses)
"It's not over"-Daughtry (Hatter's song)
"Like you"-Evanescence (Dodge & how he doesnt care what happens to him after he kills the Cat when he think Alyss is dead)
"Knights of cydonia"-Muse (The fight against Redd and her forces in the end of LGW)
"Apocolypse please"-Muse (Redd's coup)

Love Story is a good call. :) I'm the Taylor Swift nut around here. "When You're Gone" is a good call, too- one that's been made before for Alyss/Dodge, but I don't think ever for Hatter/Weaver. Particularly what you said about the music video... in fact I am going to post a link for anyone who would like to see it, because it's a beautiful song and a very lovely video. Come to think of it, there's two young people in the video that are shown as being in love, only it's kind of like forbidden. Screaming Alyss/Dodge right about now! Although, no disrespect or anything to those people y'know... but I always picture Alyss and Dodge as much better looking.

We make jokes about the series all the time, (were a funny family). Like when we made a joke that included King Arch singing "Before he cheats" by Carrie Underwood.

Seriously, everytime I hear this song, I feel sorry for Dodge because it reminds me of how he is while Alyss is on Earth and he thinks she's dead.
Parts in bold are stronger reminders.
The Ghost of You
I never said I'd lie and wait forever
If I died, we'd be together
I can't always just forget her
But she could try
At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever ever...
Ever...
Get the feeling that you're never
All alone and I remember now
At the top of my lungs in my arms she dies
She dies
At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
For all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me
If I fall
If I fall (down)
At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home
Never coming home
Never coming home
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me

Here's a song that has Redd and Genevive pieces in it. Redd parts are red, Genevive parts are blue.
Just imagine that every time it says "King" it's "Queen" instead. It's like when Redd is coming back from Mt. Isolation and Genevive is killed.
The song is Viva La Vida by Coldplay.
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest work
But that was when I ruled the world
(Ohhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

02-16-2009, 09:20 PM
wow both of those songs are perfect! (the MCR and coldplay ones)
i think Wine Red by The Hush Sound kind of works.
Who shot that arrow in your throat?
Who missed the crimson apple?
It hung heavy on the tree above your head
This chaos, this calamity, this garden once was perfect
Give your immortality to me; I'll set you up against the stars
Gloria,
We lied, we can't go on
This is the time and this is the place to be alive
Who shot that arrow in your throat?
Who missed the crimson apple?
And there is discord in the garden tonight
The sea is wine red
This is the death of beauty
The doves have died
The lovers have lied
I cut the arrow from your neck
Stretched you beneath the tree
Among the roots and baby's breath
I covered us with silver leaves
Gloria,
We lied, we can't go on
This is the time and this is the place to be alive
The sea is wine red
This is the death of beauty
The doves have died
The lovers have lied
The sea is wine red
This is the death of beauty
The doves have died
The lovers have lied
The sea is wine red (Gloria, we lied)
This is the death of beauty (this is the time and place)
The doves have died (Gloria, we lied)
The lovers have lied (this is the time and place)
idk in my mind it does. Sea is wine red- pool of tears during Alyss's absence Death of beauty- when alyss is stranded on earth, garden-wonderland, chaos-Redd's reign, etc. etc.
btw if you don't know the hush sound, you should! they are amazing! :D

It's the first Coldplay song I've ever heard but I really really like it. I can't believe it's taken me this long to make the LGW connection. I was sitting in the car and it was on and then when it was saying the part "It was the wicked and wild wind blew down the doors to let me in; shattered windows and the sound of drums, people couldn't believe what I'd become" and I just got this image in my head of when Redd first breaks into Heart Palace. And then of course it goes right to "Revolutionaries wait for my head on a silver plate" and I was like, Genevive!
But yeah it took me a long time to make the connection. LOL.
For those of you who might not have heard the song (though I doubt that's possible given how popular it is!) here's the music video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5TNK-TvIcI
One part I also didn't get a chance to explain was that I put the line "My missionaries in a foreign field" as Genevive's because it made me think of her sending Hatter and Alyss through the Pool of Tears to Earth.

Now, this is a real Madigan theme song: :D
Steve walks warily down the street,
With the brim pulled way down low
Aint no sound but the sound of his feet,
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, Im gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
How do you think Im going to get along,
Without you, when youre gone
You took me for everything that I had,
And kicked me out on my own
Are you happy, are you satisfied
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat
Chorus
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him
You can cheat him
You can treat him bad and leave him
When hes down
But Im ready, yes Im ready for you
Im standing on my own two feet
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
Repeating the sound of the beat
Ha ha ha! LOL!

You'll like this one HM_F. This is the song that works for Homburg Molly
"Stand My Ground" by Within Temptation
(Parts in bold stand out stronger for me, though the whole song works to me
I can see
when you stay low nothing happens
Does it feel right ?
Late at night
things I thought I put behind me
haunt my mind
I just know there's no escape now
once it sets it's eyes on you
but I won't run, have to stare it in the eye
Stand my ground, I won't give in
No more denying, I gotta face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand My Ground
It's all around
getting stronger, coming closer
into my world
I can feel
that it's time for me to face it
can I take it?
Though this might just be the ending
of the life I held so dear
but I won't run, there's no turning back from here
Stand my ground, I won't give in
No more denying, I gotta face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand My Ground
All I know for sure is I'm trying
I will always stand my ground
Stand my ground, I won't give in (I won't give in)
I won't give up (I won't give up)
no more denying, I got to face it
won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
if I don't make it, someone else will
Stand my ground, I won't give in
No more denying, I gotta face it
Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
Stand My Ground.
I know that's a lot, but the whole song remind me of how BA Molly is.

Dear Wally, i'm writing this letter sincerely.
To tell you you're the "sweetest boy i've ever known."
Remember that USO when we met.
You almost didnt go.
Well, me and your two sons are very glad you did.
When your eyes found me i could hardly breathe.
I wanted you.
Glad you wanted me.
I never stopped falling in love with you wally.
From the first day i saw you
I was sailor-bound, i just knew.
You had me, i was yours.
We danced out on the floor.
And with each passing day.
i only loved you more.
That night was pure magic.
Who would have imagined.
It would become 55 loving wonderful years.
Your job was not all easy.
Those last years i could hardly speak.
But when i looked at you i knew nothing had changed.
And when i was leaving.
I could feel you hurting.
But then i saw those angels and i knew your love would want this for me.
I never stopped falling in love with you wally.
From the first day i saw you
I was sailor-bound, i just knew.
You had me, i was yours.
We danced out on the floor.
And with each passing day.
I only loved you more..more.. more...more more
So while you're waiting
Know that im saying i love you
i love you.........
I never stopped falling in love with you wally.
From the first day i saw you
I was sailor-bound, i just knew.
You had me, i was yours.
We danced out on the floor.
And with each passing day.
I only loved you
You had me, i was yours.
We danced out on the floor.
And with each passing day.
I only loved you more..
Dear Wally,
just replace wally with dodge and sailor with guardsman :]

I have one, for the first time in a while. Surprisingly, it's for Dodge and Alyss! Normally I'm more of a Millinery girl.
Red for Alyss, blue for Dodge, green for both. And the song is naturally split up this way, which makes it even more perfect.
Almost Here (Delta Goodrem feat. Brian McFadden)
Did I hear you right
'cause I thought you said
Let's think it over
You have been my life
And I never planned
Growing old without you
Shadows bleeding through the light
Where the love once shined so bright
Came without a reason
Don't let go on us tonight
Love's not always black and white
Haven't I always loved you?
But when I need you
You're almost here
And I know that's not enough
And when I'm with you
I'm close to tears
'cause your only almost here
I would change the world
If I had a chance
Oh won't you let me
Treat me like a child
Throw your arms around me
Oh please protect me
Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
Haven't I always loved you?
But when I need you
You're almost here
And I know that's not enough
And when I'm with you
I'm close to tears
'cause your only almost here
Bruised and battered by your words
Dazed and shattered now it hurts
Haven't I always loved you?
But when I need you
You're almost here
Well I never knew how far behind I'd left you
And when I hold you your almost here
Well I'm sorry that I took our love for granted
And now I'm with you I'm close to tears
'cause I know I'm almost here
Only almost here

Another Molly one from me. Think her attitude to Hatter when they first meet in the tavern towards the end of LGW and her whole attitude up until her capture.
I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
You're living in the past it's a new generation
A girl can do what she wants to do and that's
What I'm gonna do
An' I don't give a damn ' bout my bad reputation
Oh no not me
An' I don't give a damn 'bout my reputation
Never said I wanted to improve my station
An' I'm only doin' good
When I'm havin' fun
An' I don't have to please no one
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my bad reputation
Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me
I don't give a damn
'Bout my reputation
I've never been afraid of any deviation
An' I don't really care
If ya think I'm strange
I ain't gonna change
An' I'm never gonna care
'Bout my bad reputation
Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me
Pedal boys!
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my reputation
The world's in trouble
There's no communication
An' everyone can say
What they want to say
It never gets better anyway
So why should I care
'Bout a bad reputation anyway
Oh no, not me
Oh no, not me
I don't give a damn 'bout my bad reputation
You're living in the past
It's a new generation
An' I only feel good
When I got no pain
An' that's how I'm gonna stay
An' I don't give a damn
'Bout my bad reputation
Oh no, not me
Oh no, not
Not me, not me

I've found one that works for Alyss and Dodge. It's called "Never Say Never"
by the Fray.
"Never Say Never"
(As always bold parts are stronger reminders)
Some things we don't talk about
better do without
and just hold a smile
falling in and out of love
a scene their proud of
together all the while
You can never say never while we don't know it
time and time again
younger now then we were before
dont let me go, dont let me go, dont let me go
dont let me go, dont let me go, dont let me go
Picture you're the queen of everything
as far as the eye can see
under your command
I will be your guardian from all that's coming down
steady your hand
You can never say never while we don't know it
time time and time again
younger now then we were before
dont let me go, dont let me go, dont let me go
dont let me go, dont let me go, dont let me go.
We're falling apart,
we're coming together,
again and again
we're crawling apart,
but we're falling together,
falling together
together again
don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go. (oh oh oh)
don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go. (ohhhh ohhh)
don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go. (ohhh ohhh)
don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go.(ohohhohhh)
For those of you that have read the song I wrote, I know the Don't let me go is in here too but I didn't hear this song until I'd finished writing my song. :D

Ok so I'm not a big disney fan, but I'm in my schools production of Beauty and the Beast, so I was trying to relate it to LGW and heres what I got
what the people on Earth said about Alyss:
Little town
It's a quiet village
Ev'ry day
Like the one before
Little town
Full of little people
Waking up to say:
Bonjour!
Bonjour!
Bonjour! Bonjour! Bonjour!
There goes the baker with his tray, like always
The same old bread and rolls to sell
Ev'ry morning just the same
Since the morning that we came
To this poor provincial town
Look there she goes that girl is strange, no question
Dazed and distracted, can't you tell?
Never part of any crowd
'Cause her head's up on some cloud
No denying she's a funny girl that Belle
Bonjour!
Good day!
How is your fam'ly?
Bonjour!
Good day!
How is your wife?
I need six eggs!
That's too expensive!
There must be more than this provincial life!
Look there she goes that girl is so peculiar
I wonder if she's feeling well
With a dreamy, far-off look[/B[
And her nose stuck in a book
[B]What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle
Oh, isn't this amazing?
It's my fav'rite part because --- you'll see
Here's where she meets Prince Charming
But she won't discover that it's him 'til chapter three!
Now it's no wonder that her name means "Beauty"
Her looks have got no parallel
But behind that fair facade
I'm afraid she's rather odd
Very diff'rent from the rest of us
She's nothing like the rest of us
Yes, diff'rent from the rest of us is Belle!
Right from the moment when I met her, saw her
I said she's gorgeous and I fell
Here in town there's only she
Who is beautiful as me
So I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle
Look there he goes
Isn't he dreamy?
Monsieur Gaston
Oh he's so cute!
Be still my heart
I'm hardly breathing
He's such a tall, dark, strong and handsome brute!
Bonjour!
Pardon
Good day
Mais oui!
You call this bacon?
What lovely grapes!
Some cheese
Ten yards!
one pound
'Scuse me! Please let me through!
I'll get the knife
This bread -
Those fish -
it's stale!
they smell!
Madame's mistaken.
Well, maybe so
Good morning! Oh, good morning!
There must be more than this provincial life!
Just watch, I'm going to make Belle my wife!
Look there she goes
The girl is strange but special
A most peculiar mad'moiselle!
It's a pity and a sin
She doesn't quite fit in
'Cause she really is a funny girl
A beauty but a funny girl
She really is a funny girl
That Belle!
sorry I've been singing that, Be Our Guest, and Human again for weeks so I figured I might as well relate it to LGW :rolleyes:

That's cool that you girls are in musicals! I can't sing, but when my Parish does original musicals (and they're a big deal, last time we had an official soundtrack made on CD and posters and everything!) I do the screenwriting. So that's my contribution. :D
homburgmolly_fan
02-24-2009, 09:56 PM
Oh yeah, going back to the original subject...
It was asked awhile ago whether or not anyone thought Molly would ever fall in love and get married to some other Miliner, someday. Me and GD thought that someday, she probably would.
But anyways, if Molly were ever to start dating and then have a nasty breakup, this would be the song for it:
"Don't Tell Me"
You held my hand and walked me home, I know
Why you gave me that kiss it was something like this it made me go ooh ohh
You wiped my tears, got rid of all my fears, why did you have to go?
Guess it wasn't enough to take up some of my love
Guys are so hard to trust
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that girl?
The one who gives it all away, yeah
[Chorus:]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was somethin I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Dont try to tell me what to say,
You're better off that way
Don't think that your charm and the fact that your arm is now around my neck
Will get you in my pants I'll have to kick your a** and make you never forget
I'm gonna ask you to stop, thought I liked you a lot, but I'm really upset
Get out of my head get off of my bed yeah thats what I said
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that girl, the one who, throws it all away
[Chorus]
This guilt trip that you put me on won't mess me up I've done no wrong
Any thoughts of you and me have gone away
[Chorus]
Better off that way
I'm better off alone anyway

Why would it have to be a secret? She's a member of the Millinery, after all. If she were to date some Milliner, it might be frowned upon by other Milliners, but I don't think it would be as extreme as Hatter/Weaver so as to be kept secret.
But yeah. I always saw Molly starting to date when she was in, like, her middle twenties. Right now she's far too busy. Besides, Molly wouldn't be the type of girl who would just want to run out and go on dates as soon as she was old enough.

aw i would love to see Molly fall in love. Have her own happily ever after, like Alyss and Dodge(hopefully)
I wonder how Hatter would react to her dating someone? Would he be protective? Awkward? Would he even get invovled in the matter? Hmm...

I think he'd be a bit protective. Once he knew the guy, then he probably wouldn't be involved. But at the beginning, I think he would be rather protective. How 'bout you guys? What do you think?
TeamEdwardGirltheAlyssian
02-25-2009, 07:15 PM
I think he'd be protective, but try not to let it show. You know, like threaten the guy when Molly's not around. (Now that I think about it, Hatter threatening anyone is a bit scary). But I agree with HM_F on two things. when Hatter got to know the guy, he probably leave them alone. The other thing is that, she probably wouldn't date as soon as she was old enough. I think this is a weird topic of conversation. Though I do agree with H.H, I think Molly should have her own happy ending. But to me if Molly were to fall in love (weird), the guy would fall for her first (why not? she's bad a**, and half of my guy friends think she's hot [which I think is weird]), and at first she'd be like "Yeah, whatever. I'm gonna go fight in the HATBOX and show them, halfer or not, I'm awesome." Then eventually she'd like him back. But that'd take awhile. I think Molly would be like 20. Again, this is a weird topic of conversation.

For Hatter:

See how they glisten.
See this one shine...
How he smiles in the light.
My friend.
My faithful friend...
Speak to me friend.
Whisper...
I'll listen.
I know, I know you've been locked
out of sight
all these years, like me
My friend...
well I've come home to find you waiting.
Home, and we're together!
And we'll do wonders.
Won't we?
You there, my friend?
I'm your friend too, Mr. Todd
If you only knew, Mr. Todd
Ooh, Mr. Todd
You're warm in my hand.
You've come home!
Always had a fondness for you, I did.
Come let me hold you.
Now, with a sigh, you grow warm in my hand.
My friend!
My clever friend...
Never you fear, Mr. Todd
You can move in here, Mr. Todd
Mr. Todd, splendors.
You never have dreamed
all your days
will be yours!
I'm your friend
and you're mine!
Don't they shine beautiful?
Silver's good enough for me, Mr. T.
Rest now, my friends.
Soon, I'll unfold you.
Soon you'll know splendors
You never have dreamed
all you days,
my lucky friends
'Til now your shine was merely silver.
Friends, you shall drip rubies, you'll soon drip precious rubies...

LOl. I wish I had a twin! :rolleyes: Hah well iwatched Sweeney last night and when he started singing I was like :eek: HATTER! And yeah. the rest is history
I have another sweeney song about Alyss on earth:
Green finch, and linnet bird,
Nightingale, blackbird,
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
sitting in cages
never taking wing?
Outside the sky waits
beckoning!
Beckoning!
Just beyond the bars...
How can you remain
staring at the rain
maddened by the stars?
How is it you sing
anything?
How is it you sing?
My cage has many rooms
damask and dark...
Nothing there sings,
not even my lark.
Larks never will, you know,
when they're captive.
Teach me to be more
adaptive.Ah...
Green Finch, and Linnet Bird,
nightingale, blackbird,
teach me how to sing.
If I cannot fly...
Let me sing.
:)

Molly's Song:
Brave by Idina Menzel
Don't know just where I'm going
And tomorrow, it's a little overwhelming
And the air is cold
And I'm not the same anymore
I've been running in your direction
For to long now
I've lost my own reflection
And I can't look down
If you're not there to catch me when I fall.
If this is the moment I stand here on my own
If this is my rite of passage that somehow leads me home
I might be afraid
But it's my turn to be brave
If this is the last chance before we say goodbye
At least it's the first day of the rest of my life
I can't be afraid
Cause it's my turn to be brave
All along all I ever wanted, was to be the light
When your life was daunting
But I can't see mine
When I feel as though you're pushing me away
Well who's to blame, are we making the right choices
Cause we can't be sure if we're hearing our own voices
As we close the door even though we are so desperate to stay
If this is the moment I stand here on my own
If this is my rite of passage that somehow leads me home
I might be afraid
But it's my turn to be brave
If this is the last chance before we say goodbye
At least it's the first day of the rest of my life
I can't be afraid
Cause it's my turn to be brave
And I might still cry
And I might still bleed
These thorns in my side
This heart on my sleeve
And lightening may strike
This ground at my feet
And I might still crash
But I still believe
This is the moment I stand here all alone
With everything I have inside, everything I own
I might be afraid
But it's my turn to be brave
If this is the last time before we say goodbye
At least it's the first day of the rest of my life
I can't be afraid
Cause it's my turn to be brave
Alyss about dodge:
(nothing is in bold b/c i think it all applies.)
Gorgeous By Idina Menzel
In a perfect world, in another time
In a far off place we wouldn't need to justify
Everything we are
And all that we believe
We could finally be
Whoever we both want to be
And when we can't be heard,
And when we can't be seen
I will call you close and
You will reach for me.
When all of the beauty turns to pain
When all of the madness falls like rain
As long as we crash and we collide
We will be gorgeous, you and I.
Through the window pane,
Through the bedroom door
This city wants to fight
But it can't touch us anymore
We have come so far,
We have shed our skin
The more that's taken from us now,
The more we have to give
And when we can't be heard,
And when we can't be seen
I will call you close and
You will reach for me.
When all of the beauty turns to pain
When all of the madness falls like rain
As long as we crash and we collide
We will be gorgeous, you and I.
And when we are drowning in the noise
I'm gonna stop to hear your voice
As long as we crash and we collide
We will be gorgeous, you and I.
(We'll be gorgeous)
(We'll be gorgeous)
In the perfect time
(We'll be gorgeous)
And when we lose our faith
In all that's beautiful
You lift me to this place
When all of the beauty turns to pain
When all of the madness falls like rain
As long as we crash and we collide
We will be gorgeous, gorgeous, yeah
And when we are drowning in the noise
I'm gonna stop to find your voice
As long as we crash and we collide
We will be gorgeous, we will be gorgeous
(you and I)
And when I lose my faith
I don't know what to do
You lift me to this place
And make me feel so beautiful
As long as you're right here by my side
We will be gorgeous, you and I.
and I totally just found another song for Molly. That is if she ever fell in love. But I will take a break and give some others a chance. :rolleyes:

I've got a new song for you guys. This time it SO works for Redd.
Sweet Sacrifice
by Evanescence (Parts in red are stronger reminders of Her Imperial Visciousness)
It's true, we're all a little insane
but its so clear
now that I'm unchained
fear is only in our minds
taking over all the time
fear is only in our minds but its taking over all the time
you poor sweet innocent thing
dry your eyes and testify
you know you live to break me- don't deny
sweet sacrifice
One day I'm gonna forget your name
and one sweet day, you're gonna drown in my lost pain
fear is only in our minds
taking over all the time
fear is only in our minds but its taking over all the time
you poor sweet innocent thing
dry your eyes and testify
and oh you love to hate me don't you, honey?
I'm your sacrifice.
[I dream in darkness
I sleep to die
erase the silence
erase my life
our burning ashes
blacken the day
a world of nothingness
blow me away]
do you wonder why you hate?
are you still too weak to survive your mistakes?
you poor sweet innocent thing
dry your eyes and testify
you know you live to break me- don't deny
sweet sacrifice

Grrrrr. Now I want to go to a live performance again! Whenever we went to Stratford it was mostly to see Shakespear. I really hate most all of Shakespear's stuff, but I loved going to Stratford to see 'em because I am SO into theater. :D
Really? I love Shakespear! I'll get out our big leather-bound volume of his works and read it sometimes when I'm bored.
My homeschoolgroup goes to see a lot of live performaces too but I haven't been in ages! Oh how I miss drama and the theatre! :(
Also, song that reminds me of LGW - "The Orange Tree" by Philip Glass, It's part of the film-score for The Illusionist.

Same here, I love Philip Glass but John Williams was my favorite composer for a while though. Oh! Thought of another song that reminds of LGW - Mercede's Lullaby It's from Pan's Labyrinth but I can't recall the composer . . . hmm . . .

Yes, John Williams is pretty much musical genius. :rolleyes: I really like Hans Zimmer's stuff too. You could totally tell when it's his composition. :D
Javier Navarrete. :)

I've heard the Gladiator score which was by Hans Zimmer I belive. That was pretty awesome sounding.
I really like Danny Elfman when it comes to originality though, the stuff he composed for Nightbreed is really good but I hear the movie sucks.
And, erm . . . what's Javier Navarrete? :o

Yes, Hans Zimmer did a lot. Pirates of the Caribbean I guess is the most popular now. He does mostly Jerry Bruckheimer's films, though. :)
Javier Naverrete is the dude that composed for Pan's. ;)

HAh well a one act is a play with only one act. it runs about 55 minmutes. We compete against a bunch of other schools. It's a blast! It's just a normal play that the director cuts down to 55 minutes.
Hah thats my own playlist :] I compile a lot of music together a lot. Ihave a playlist for everything!
BTW: H.H I LOVE Idina Menzel! She has such an amazing voice. She played the original Elphaba in Wicked. She's also my singing hero. I'm glad to see there's other Idina Menzel fans out there. :D
I love her too! Yeah i know thats how I got started on RENT b/c I loved her in Wicked! Shes one of my singing heros aswell!

indeed. a very Molly song. she'd be singin' that under her breath while she's guardin' Alyss.
Molly mumbles and bobs her head to an invisible beat.

Molly takes out her earphones. "Oh, what? Huh?"

My sister and I lipsync a lot while we both have our headphones on. We both listen to the same iPod (we have one of those headphone-linkage adapter thingies :rolleyes:). I think people see us and think we're weird. meh.
When we still had our car we blasted movie scores and rocked out. It's funny. One time our teacher caught us doing that in the parking lot. :p Good times.

agreed.
Ok so just discovered this song and it screamed LGW! It could fit Hatter, Alyss, Dodge, molly, Genieve (sp?) anybody really! well sort of!
I thought I saw you late last night, but it was just a flash of light.
An angel passing.
But I remember yesterday.
Life before you went away.
And we were laughing.
We had hope and now it's broken.
And I could see it clearly once when you were here with me.
And now somehow all that's left are pieces of a dream.
Now I'm lost in restless nights.
Just a whisper of the life that we created.
Shadows falling.
I am calling.
And I could see it clearly once when you were here with me.
And now somehow all that's left are pieces of a...
The faded photographs.
The frames of broken glass.
The shattered memories.
Time will soon erase.
All these souvenirs.
Salt from a thousand tears.
But when I wake up you are never there.
We had hope and now it's broken.
And I could see it clearly once when you were here with me.
And now somehow all that's left are pieces of a...
And I could see it clearly once when you were here with me.
And now somehow all that's left are pieces of a dream.
Pieces of a dream.
I really like this song now!
