There's also a top-level comment for GENERAL SONG SUGGESTIONS & REQUESTS for things like sad mage songs or cool fight songs or songs that belong on general Dragon Age/Fade Rift playlists.

Go go go.

Sons of Korah - Psalm 94

Take heed you senseless ones you fools!
When will you understand you fools!
Does the God Who teaches man all things not know?
Does He not know?

Does the God Who made the ear not hear?
Does He Who formed the eye not see?
Does the God Who disciplines nations never punish?
Does He not judge?


A good one for all our militant Chantryfolk.

OKAY WELL thanks to Liz I already have 20+ song monstrosities of playlists for all my characters, so here is the full one. Most of it deals with themes of wanderlust, doubt, and atonement.

1. Peter Bradley Adams -- The Longer I Run

Tell my brother please not to look for me
I ain't the man that I used to be
And if my savior comes, could you let him know
I've gone away for to save my soul


Just sort of a reference to how he fled Kirkwall the first time because he didn't want to be a part of what the templars were doing there, but now he's left the majority of the Order behind and is sort of on another journey to atone for that cowardice. In both cases, he left because of what his conscience was telling him, just in very different ways.

2. Mumford and Sons -- Hopeless Wanderer

I wrestled long with my youth
We tried so hard to live in the truth
But do not tell me all is fine
When I lose my head, I lose my spine


same general vein. "I fucked up when I was younger, now I want to fix it."

3. Keane -- Perfect Symmetry

Write page after page of analysis
Looking for the final score
We're no closer than we were before
Who are you? What are you fighting for?
Holy truth? Brother, I choose this mortal life
Lived in perfect symmetry
What I do, that will be done to me


Just kind of a song about his doubts and his less conventional approach to being a templar, these days.

Full list here; mostly deals with themes of anger, paranoia and violent rebellion.

1. Radical Face -- Black Eyes

When you last left me my blood was in a jar
And you kept it on your mantelpiece
I couldn’t count on anyone to stand there behind me
And keep the dogs from dragging me off with them


A good mage song, I think, but especially for one who feels so betrayed to have been brought to the Circle in the first place. The "blood in a jar" makes me think of phylacteries.

(also becomes horrifying if you think of it as being addressed to Myr, because the chorus is "my heart will be blacker than your eyes when I'm through with you.")

2. Lord Huron -- Meet Me in the Woods

I took a little journey to the unknown
And I come back changed, I can feel it in my bones
I fucked with forces that our eyes can't see
Now the darkness got a hold on me

Follow me into the endless night
I can bring your fears to life


In a literal sense, it's just kind of an entropy mage theme song, but it also works in the sense that it's about how Van's time in the Hinterlands changed and traumatized him.

3. Donna Lynne Champlin -- Face Your Fears

If a bear runs at you in the woods, don’t run away
Look it deep in the eyes, put your hand on its chest and say “Bear, I’m not afraid!”
If you’re in a burning building and smoke is everywhere
Keep calm, take a deep breath, and stay right there

adalia | oc

[personal profile] thunderproof 2017-11-17 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
i only have a few songs, but i love them and this meme sooo
cake bake betty — the spine song
you pleaded
"oh kind sir,
please let me say goodbye"
your soul ripped from your stomach
you gave an awful cry
a cry
a cry


adalia quite literally sold her soul — but also she is constantly terrified, doing terrible things in order to try to set other people up to do good, slowly losing track of herself and her earnest desire to help. all she wants is to belong, but she keeps cutting off parts of herself to try to help others who mock and deride her.

angel snow — secret
i always wanted to be something better
i always wanted to shine
and now i know i can't deny my nature
'cause i got something to hide


adalia has always wanted to be something more than she really is, something more interesting or worthy or likable. now it doesn't matter what she wants to be, because what she is is... pretty shit! good people don't sell their souls, guys.

florence + the machine — various storms and saints
you'll find a rooftop to sing from
or find a hallway to dance
you don't need no edge to cling from
your heart is there, it's in your hands
i know it seems like forever
i know it seems like an age
but one day this will be over
i swear it's not so far away


in the immortal words of a softer world: she sings anyway.

this is just based on some of our banter on plurk but I Don't Know Who I Am strikes me as something that might apply to Adalia, but it is also possible I totally missed the mark, so let me know!!

Playlist here with a link to youtube.

For themes, songs about getting over heartbreak, moving on, going on journeys/adventures.

For sound, very ethereal, dreamy, Celtic sounding music. I already have a few from Lord of the Rings on there to give you an idea.

Playlist here with a link to youtube.

For themes, songs about being brave, strong, independent.

For sound, I veered slightly towards French with the Amelie soundtrack, but overall either female singers or men with classical voices like Josh Groban. IDK, it just fit well?

(Also, I have a Church/Christine playlist because I'm shipper trash. If you have any songs about slowly creeping in feelings or trying to deny feelings, that would be cool.) Look, I know Bootylicious is on there and it's because Church called her that once. I HAD TO, OKAY?

my heart shall sing of the day You bring, let the fires of Your justice burn

I've added some songs to it since last I organized it but there's some thematic groupings in there (personal involvement in the Rebellion, his very difficult relationship with Van, faith vs doubt).

special note for A Rose for Epona, which is all I was listening to for writing tags in this thread, ohoho

I would like to propose

Kaleidoscope Heart - Sara Bareilles
it's not a real long song and it doesn;t have many lyrics but for some reason it gives me a Cosima vibe

And this one I actually use for one of my ocs, but I think I might have first stumbled across it in a Cosima video? ANYWAY:
Infinitesimal - Mother Mother

i'll find more eventually but it's 6am forgive me

Night Lament by Kate Rusby is the last track and captures her pretty well imho.
