Theme song for your work or characters?
#1
Hey everyone, just wondered if you had a theme song picked out for your series or characters? I feed off music so I have about a million but I had to pick a couple at the moment, the latest unreleased chapter of Sweet Venom would be this:
[color=var(--ytd-video-primary-info-renderer-title-color,var(--yt-spec-text-primary))]W.D.Y.W.F.M? By The Neighbourhood[/color]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAlHzschI1s
And the theme tune for the whole series would 100% be:
The Handler by Muse

This changes from time to time for the entire series because I hear different songs and such.
However, I think made of Made of Air by Thomas Bergersen does as close of a job tone wise.

There are a few, rightfully from goblin slayer, aura from .hack/sign and probably the waluigi rap trilogy(it’s better that it sounds).

It isn't a theme song. It's more of a fantasy if, by chance, my work were filmed, I'd like this as my soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qA9fkqbblyY
Different parts fit different parts of my story excellently - the romance, the action, the mystery... This music is so amazing.

There are a lot of songs that influenced my story, but these two are heavy influences for Gadgeteer:
- "Untraveled Road" by Thousand Foot Krutch (In a way, if this story were an animated show, I think this song would fit as it's OP)
- "Hero" by Skillet (Again, if Gadgeteer were an animated show, this song is what i envision for the ED)
As for Shindo East, the titular Gadgeteer of my story, he has two specific musical motifs that could be called his "theme songs":
- "I see Red" by Thousand Foot Krutch.
- "Talking to myself" by Watsky
- "Untraveled Road" by Thousand Foot Krutch (In a way, if this story were an animated show, I think this song would fit as it's OP)
- "Hero" by Skillet (Again, if Gadgeteer were an animated show, this song is what i envision for the ED)

Noise Channel Theme by Virt/Jake Kauffman would probably work as a theme song for Galactiquest if it were animated. Even though the lyrics are a little hard to parse (someone posted them in the comments), they're pretty fitting, being about wishing someone good luck in space.

Not what I’m currently working on, but This Is Love by Air Traffic Controller is 100% the theme for one of my projects.
For Lilium, for the longest time the theme has been Revenge Syndrome by Mafumafu/IA orrrr Red Fraction by Mell
This project, though, doesn’t really have one. I don’t normally think of songs that fit specific projects, if I’m being honest. Most of the time, I don’t even listen to music when writing. Or, if I do, it’s stuff without lyrics.

"The Mandolorian" is a great song, it's one of my favorite character's themes now because it fits them so well, here's the link:

My WIP's theme song would be "Nightquest" by Nightwish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVQoQdWaIg8
The Adventures of BLUE EAGLE would have something similar to the 1968 The Adventures of Batman or something in that vein. Super Friends or something. Something with a narrator screaming the identities and basic abilities of decades-old iconic characters at you while every stock animation from the show flashes by your screen.

Not a theme song but I often make playlists for what I'm writing. For Royal Road specifically:
Intercosmic - https://tidal.com/playlist/13944c8d-9cde-46db-a07e-71d819da2b61
Exsanguinate - https://tidal.com/playlist/a3a3e8d0-f516-47dc-a79a-9f37021a03d6

Same. I've been listening to the Oceanborn and Century Child albums a lot. Wishmaster, too. Might I recommend Tarja's solo work as well? Songs like Dead Promises, Spirits of the Sea, Shadow Play, Medusa, and Mystique Voyage are incredible beyond incredible, and each has inspired a scene in my WIP.

I love music! Lemme get in on this! I've got a ton of songs that I listen to while I write, and while Leveled Plane doesn't have any "theme songs," there are a few that shaped it into what it's become.
The way my characters interact with each other and the world in Leveled Plane was inspired by "Mars" by Sleeping at Last: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MetLIUdKon8
As for the current plot, I'd have to say that "Who Will Save You Now" by Les Friction matches it pretty well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vI0FETSHAv4
Both songs help me get in the headspace I need to be in while I write. There are others, but those are probably the closest ones I've got.

I actually make entire playlists for my novels 🙈
For the book I'm posting here, I'd say the themesong for the character Lucius is The Nameless by Slipknot.
