I'm a ridiculous person who spends more time listening to music that captures the vibe of my characters and their plots than actually writing for them. I may or may not have a handful of playlists created for said characters, and I know that I'm not the only one who has done this. So anyway, I thought it would be cool to have a place to share the songs that fit our characters best. It can be something that matches their personality or even a song that captures a specific moment in their plot (I may or may not have once made a playlist that followed beat for beat specific moments in a character's life). So yeah. "Cowboy Song" by Thin Lizzy
I kind of keep coming back to this song as Kermit's anthem for the years he spent in exile in America.

I love this idea! I have a station for each character on Pandora. For all of my Iola threads I listen to a station based off Bloodstream by Stateless. Which is probably why all of her posts are a little dramatic I think the song fits her for all her relationships, not just the romantic ones. 'You've gotten into my bloodstream'

I have a station for each character on Pandora. Oh man, I didn't even think to use Pandora for characters. Back in the day I wrote the majority of my posts to the Flaming Lips' The Soft Bulletin or Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, but I've always had this bad habit of searching for fitting songs while staring blankly at my Word doc. I'm very good at procrastinating. In college I never turned in a paper that wasn't finished at three in the morning. For Lawrence's theme song I'm sold on "Give Him a Great Big Kiss" by The Shangri-Las. On classic HM, Larrielle was kind of my quintessential teenage love plot and this is kind of the quintessential teenage love song. But mostly I love the line "He's good bad, but he's not evil" which is also Lawrence's profile quote on this site. I also think it's funny that Lawrence is like 5'5"* and Brielle is like 6' and has literally never had to "look up."
*I'm pretty sure at some point Steph said that I couldn't make Larry 5'5" but he's 5'5" in my heart

I listen to quite a few different stations for Jake, depending on what kind of thread I'm doing with him. But this song Neptune by Sleeping at Last is like his theme right now.

I want to start off by saying that I have an Emilia playlist on Spotify and it's ridiculous how much time I've spent adding the right kind of songs to it. It was really hard picking out specific song that would be her theme song but I think this one is pretty good. Despite spending countless of hours perfecting her playlist, this song was recommend by car and as soon as I heard it, I fell in love with it. Wait by the River by Lord Huron

Ever since steph mentioned this song, I've been playing it on repeat. All Too Well by Taylor Swift " And maybe we got lost in translation Maybe I asked for too much But maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up Running scared, I was there
...
Time won't fly, it's like I'm paralyzed by it I'd like to be my old self again But I'm still trying to find it"
