[OT] Theme songs

The DuckieMonster came up with this idea a short while ago...

Appropriate music tracks for PerplexCity characters. Discuss.

Percy Sledge wrote:
When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else
He'd trade the world
For a good thing he's found
If she is bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend If he puts her down

When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way
It ought to be

When a man loves a woman
I give you everything I've got (yeah)
Trying to hold on
To your precious love
Baby please don't treat me bad

When a man loves a woman
Deep down in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she is playing him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Loving eyes can never see

Yes when a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels
'Cause baby, baby, baby
I am a man
When a man loves a woman

A couple for the nasty Miranda / Helen / whatever she's calling herself this week...

"Run to the Hills" - Iron Maiden
"Born to Run" - Bruce Springsteen

Also - Queens of The Stone Age's "Little Sister" for Violet. And for any of Teh Sneeky 3P, may I suggest "There's No Other Way" by Blur?

For Kurt/Miranda in general, I suggest a Gordon Lightfoot song that I've only ever heard played by Peter, Paul, & Mary: "That's What You Get for Loving Me."

For Miranda:

Quote:
I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous and I can't relax
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me I'm a real live wire

Psycho Killer
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far far better
Run run run run run run run away

You start a conversation you can't even finish it.
You're talkin' a lot, but you're not sayin' anything.
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed.
Say something once, why say it again?

Psycho Killer,
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far far better
Run run run run run run run away

Ce que j'ai fait ce soir-là, Ce qu'elle a dit ce soir-là
Realisant mon espoir,
Je me lance vers la gloire... Ok
We are vain and we are blind
I hate people when they're not polite

Psycho Killer,
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far far better
Run run run run run run run away
Psycho Killer,
Qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far far better
Run run run run run run run away

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh...

Dunno about anyone else, but I can't get this one out of my head:

Caroline! Caroline!
All the guys would say she's mighty fine
But mighty fine only got you somewhere half the time
And the other half either got you cursed out, or coming up short
Yeah, now dig this, even though (even though)
You'd need a golden calculator to divide (to divide)
The time it took to look inside and realize that
Real guys go for real down to Mars girls, yeah!

I know you'd like to thank your sh*t don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See that roses really smell like boo-boo
Yeah, roses really smell like boo-boo

Caroline! See she's the reason for the word "b*tch" (b*tch)
I hope she's speeding on the way to the club
Trying to hurry up to get to some
Baller or singer or somebody like that
And try to put on her makeup in the mirror
And crash, crash, crash.. into a ditch! (Just Playing!)
She needs a golden calculator to divide (to divide)
The time it took to look inside and realize that
Real guys go for real down to Mars girls, yeah!

I know you'd like to thank your sh*t don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See that roses really smell like boo-boo
Yeah, roses really smell like boo-boo

Well she's got a hotty body, but her attitude is potty
When I met her at a party she was hardly acting naughty
I said "Would you call me?"
She said "Pardon me, are you ballin'?"
I said "Darling, you sound like a prostitute pursing"
Oh so you're one them freaks, get geeked at the sight of ATM receipts
But game been peeped, dropping names she's weak
Trickin' off this b*tch is lost
Must take me for a geek a quick way to eat
A neat place sleep, a rent-a-car for a week, a trick for a treat
Now go on the raw sex, my AIDS test is flawless
Regardless, we don't want to get involved with no lawyers
And judges just to hold grudges in a courtroom
I wanna see ya support bra not support you!

I know you'd like to thank your sh*t don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See that roses really smell like boo-boo
Yeah, roses really smell like boo-boo

Better come back down to Mars
Girl, quit chasin' cars
What happens when the dough get so low
b*tch, you ain't that fine
No way.. no way.. no way

Crazy b*tch (repeated in background)
b*tch, stupid ass b*tch
Old punk ass b*tch, old dumbass b*tch
A b*tch's b*tch, just a b*tch

Just before you go today
There's something that I've got to say
Well you asked me what was wrong
And I didn't want to tell you

You believed me when I said I tried
But oh, Carolyn, I lied
And its gone on far too long
And I never tried to help you

But don't wait up for me
Just don't wait up for me

It isn't quite the way you think
How low do you suppose I'd sink?
We can't bear to be apart
Oh I'm sorry that I said that

But come on now let's not pretend
We both knew we were near the end
I don't want to break your heart
But we just can't turn the clock back

But don't wait up for me
Just don't wait up for me
No more
