Music Monday: Teardrop

This song is probably better known as “the theme song from House,” but it is actually called “Teardrop” by Massive Attack. It’s a pretty sweet song, with a kind of weird music video. Oh well!

 

Music Monday: Who Wants to Live Forever

And I’m back with some awesome music! This band needs no introduction, so… here it is!

Music Monday: Cannibal

Happy MLK Jr Day! Did you get the day off? Are you enjoying it? 🙂

I’m spending my day off studying microbiology (mmmm bacteria) and cleaning my house (mmmm bacteria). Oh, and writing a blog post about a song I like!

I like much of what Silversun Pickups does, but this song really resonated with me for some reason. Cannibal? Sure!

So here’s “Cannibal” by Silversun Pickups. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Music Monday: Demons

Okay, so it’s not exactly a secret that I lovelovelove Imagine Dragons. “Radioactive” is possibly one of the best songs I’ve ever heard everrrr, and their other songs ain’t too shabby neither.

But this post isn’t about “Radioactive,” because that song has been assigned to a different WiP of mine–one that actually involves radioactivity. But I digress…

If you’ve heard the song “Demons” and paid even the smallest bit of attention to its lyrics, you will already know that the song is about the personal demons that humans must grapple with: an abusive past, PTSD, degenerative diseases, etc. I thought it fit Connor well, because of his ongoing battle with the monster within himself: the monster he could so easily and blissfully become if he allowed himself.

Being Connor is like being a recovering alcoholic locked in a room with a thousand open bottles of the finest booze money can buy. Or in my case, the finest chocolate. Mmm chocolate.

Music Monday: The Joker

The roommate I had when I lived in England loved the Steve Miller Band and always played their music when we drove to work. Good thing, too, because this song is amazing!

But it’s hard to play on Guitar Hero (or Rock Band or whatever, I forget). It made Connor flip out. Poor guy has no ear for music.

Music Monday: Daft Punk

I am one of those writers who is greatly inspired by music. As a result, I have extensive playlists assigned to each different story I work on, and also a playlist entitled “Stuff I Like” which makes up songs that are awesome that don’t fit with the feeling of a book.
