Songs that make you go hmmmmm....

[Distracted]

In an attempt to perk up the board, here's a thread for links to songs that remind you of TnT. Please don't break the law and pirate something.

Here's one I wrote a filk to a while back. Here's the song, but the lyrics don't fit except for the "Breathe" part, so I wrote new ones. Here are my new lyrics. Just use your imagination.

And here's one that works with no changes at all... for MU Trip and T'Pol, especially, Bring Me to Life

[WarpGirl]

E.T. Katy Perry, but NOT the Kanye version!

[Distracted]

A link so we can all listen: E.T. by Katy Perry

[Alelou]

Here are my new lyrics. Just use your imagination.

Wow...Have you seen the long trail of spam in the comments on that?

[Distracted]

Jeez. I tried, but the only way to get rid of them is to delete each one individually.

I've got better things to do with my life. Sigh.

[WarpGirl]

I'm soooooooo sorry! I didn't know I had to post a link. If I had anymore songs I'd do it properly but I don't. I humbly crave pardon.

Oh Lawsy! I have a whole playlist!

But the one that always gets an "OMG PERFECT" out of me is Gordon Lightfoot's If You Could Read My Mind. The movie references, the inability to walk away/difficulty with doing so, acting in a way you never thought you would, discussion of mind reading...there's even a reference to Koss as "enter number two."

[Distracted]

Awwww. So sad.

Here's my all time favorite song (and music video) for T'Pol: Miss Independent

[Kotik]

Whenever I read a fic that deals with the aftermath of the_unspeakable_ritual (TM) in "Home", this song keeps popping up in my head I shall call it "Trip's lament" It's a bit drama-queen-ish, but hey, who said a heart-broken man is entirely rational

Bi-2 Varvara

Translation

Damn, where are you Varvara?

(2x)
How sad and banal it all went.
You went away from me
and now I cry myself to sleep every night.
It hurts so badly and I can hear
how loneliness approaches with iron steps.
I'm afraid of too much time to think.
How am I supposed to live the rest of my life?

I was ready to walk to the end of the world with you,
but you changed your mind and left me.
My strings have been severed
and my song is sung.
My life is over - that's it.

Once I was happy, but happiness deserted me with you.
Sadness took its place. So sad.
That's how it happened.
Waiting for you on the porch is now so useless,
So far, far, far away you are from me now.

Those lyrics sound very much like they could have been written by one of the teenagers I see at work. Fortunately, due to experiences like these, by the time they reach adulthood most of them have learned that not even "true love" is worth killing yourself over.

[Kotik]

Distracted, suicide is not really what those lyrics are about. I admit that although I tried hard to keep it close to the original text, some sentiments don't translate. When a Russian says "my life is over" or "my song is sung" it is meant to say "I stop living, now I only exist."

There use to be a very nic TnT vid with the song Accidentally in Love by Counting Crows:

However, it's now nowhere to be found, so here is the song and the lyrics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22bK0C2obFced

[Distracted]

Nice one.

Guess I have a strange sense of humor. I heard this one and my first thought was, "Sounds like trellium-D".

I Want a New Drug

[Alelou]

That would be fun for a TnT video. (Although I can't help also thinking Ghostbusters.)

[Distracted]

Yeah. I wonder who plagiarized whom?
