FS Soundtracks (a post for Dave)

[kilroy]

There needed to be two discs: one for stuff that we'd actually use as background music for the television series, and another that would be basically the unofficial theme songs of characters and general jokes. All the stuff on here is tentative and unordered.


NOFX - Bottles to the Ground (bar scene)
Rage Against the Machine - Guerilla Radio (monkey warfare)
Metallica - The Ecstasy of Gold (Monument Valley)
Suicide Machines - It's the End of the World as We Know It
The Offspring - Smash It Up
Ocean Colour Scene - Hundred Mile High (from the Lock, Stock soundtrack)
Moby - Mission Impossible
Black Lab - Learn to Crawl (from Spiderman soundtrack)
Elvis Costello and the Attractions - Complicated Shadows
Division of Laura Lee - There's a Last Time for Everything (ending theme)
Fatboy Slim - Demons (woe!)
Overseer - Supermoves (from Snatch soundtrack)
Evanescence - My Immortal (love song for all the sad ones)

Other possibles:
U2 - Electrical Storm (Jade, obviously)
Division of Laura Lee - Trapped In
Radiohead - Nice Dream (the book of dreams)
Radiohead - Black Star (satellite warfare)
Denali - Normal Days
Yoko Kanno - 7 Minutes
Yoko Kanno - What Planet Is This?
Goo Goo Dolls - Long Way Down (from Twister soundtrack; any of several falls from great heights)
Los Lobos - Bulletproof (from Desperado soundtrack; Mexican bar music)
Bana - Shell


I keeping with the way we ran things, there's a lot of tracks liberally stolen from other soundtracks, a number of remixes preferred to the real thing, and lots of punk. I figured that'd be about right. There's a number of things that it should be easy to find music for but I didn't hit on: the casino in Venezuela, Atlantis, spooky sci-fi lab music, the Netherworld in general. I have funny music for almost all of those, but not stuff that would seriously play in the background. Also, always always always need more general background music, for fights or otherwise.


The Clash - I Fought the Law
Green Day - Brat (Lina)
Indigo Girls - Ghost (Ian's character whose name escapes me)
Tenacious D - City Hall (GM theme song)
Ultimate Devotion - Strung Out (funny Yin & Jun theme)
Ben Folds Five - Underground (the Netherworld)
Brian Setzer Orchestra - Drive Like Lightning (for Tony)
The Flaming Lips - Bad Days
Everclear - Amphetamine (Yoriko)
Better than Ezra - Normal Town (Jade)
Presidents - Japan
Presidents - Teenage Girl (Nabiki)
Cake - She'll Come Back to Me (Tony again)
Chumabwamba - She's Got All the Friends That Money Can Buy (Lina again)
Micheal Kamen - Mr. Helpmann (from the Brazil soundtrack; opener)
Soul Asylum - Runaway Train (from the train episode)
The Specials - Ghost Town (from the Snatch soundtrack; for the ghost town ep)
Burning Heat (from DDRMAX2; for the space shuttle episode)
Rogers and Hammerstein - Getting to Know You (obvious)
Village People - YMCA (for the poor Kappa)
Jethro Tull - Bungle in the Jungle
or Guns 'N' Roses - Welcome to the Jungle
The Stonecutter's Song (for the Ascended)
Barenaked Ladies - It's All Been Done (for the whole reincarnation subplot)
Weezer - The Good Life (Lao)
Dead Alewives - Dungeons and Dragons (for Lord Tarrasque)


Again, all the music on here is GOOD music, and some of it is even appropriate, but it'd never get used beneath actual television footage. It's just sort of things to remember people by. I like almost all of these, but they're again not in order. And lots and lots of characters are missing.
