well I would deffinitely incorporate Let the Bodies Hit the Floor- Drowning Pool somewhere that involves LV and the Death Eaters.
And though i wouldnt include it into a movie, i think the theme song to scrubs (i'm no superman) would be perfect for Harry becuase it describes how he is still just a boy, and can only handle so much.
it'sSUPERgeek!

OMG this is like my first post in one of the forums.

Well, I read through all of this before posting, and you guys have come up with some great songs!

This is what comes to mind at the moment:

'No Surprises' - Radiohead - The Dursleys ("No alarms and no surprises please")
'Watch Over Me' - Bernard Fanning - The scene where Harry is walking around the lake at the end of GoF, mourning Sirius ("Say you'll watch over me when I'm in too deep. Tell me you'll always be there to pull me free")
'Light and Day' - The Polyphonic Spree - The end of HBP when Harry's alone with Ron and Hermione ("Just follow the day and reach for the sun")
'Miserere' - The Cat Empire - Dumbledore's funeral. It's such a sad song, yet ultimately uplifting.
'Drag' - Placebo - Ron's feelings towards Hermione ("You possess every trait that I lack, by coincidence or by design")
'Love Your Way' - Powderfinger - Molly and Arthur ("I can't explain, but I love your way")
'The Bends' - Radiohead - for Harry and Ginny after they've broken up and (possibly) their reactions to each other in DH ("Where do we go from here? The words are coming out all wierd. Where are you now when I need you?")
'Kate' - Ben Folds Five - Tonks ("You can see daisies in her footsteps") It just seems to fit her personality so well.
'Bittersweet Symphony' - The Verve - When the Order meet the Dursleys at King's Cross at the end of OotP. It's so uplifting, even though Harry is hurting over Sirius' death.
'Never Tear Us Apart' - Inxs - James and Lily. No need to explain that!
'These Days' - Powderfinger - Lupin. A tired song for a weary character.
'Evaporated' - Ben Folds Five - After Sirius' death, when Harry is waiting for Dumbledore to come back from the Ministry, and his grief is tearing him up ("I poured my heart out. It evaporated, see?")
'Wonderwall' - Oasis - Lupin and Tonks ("Maybe you're gonna be the one that saves me?")
'My Completeness' - Thirsty Merc - Harry and Ginny. 'nuff said.
And (lol) 'The Boys Are Back In Town' - Thin Lizzy - When Harry and Ron fly the Ford Anglia to Hogwarts.

Whew! That's all I've come up with so far.

blackdiamond23
hah! this is a great thread!

so i was thinking...

Send me an angel - The Scorpions
this one is appropriate for Harry and Dumbledore, especially when he dies.

Strutter - KISS
a very apt song for Ginny i think!

Love Gun - KISS (yes i am a passionate KISS fan)
for Harry when he fancies Cho Chang

Last of an ancient breed - desmond child
to stand for the wizarding war, and harry being the hero and all that jazz

Bark at the moon - Ozzy osbourne
It had to be done! laugh.gif imagine Fenrir Greyback on a bloody rampage... shocking.gif
Underthesummerrain
A beautiful Lie-30 Seconds to Mars. For Harry's whole life from the beggining there is a wicked good video on youtube for it that someone made with harry potter also
Ladie Lily Potter
Ooh I have one for what Harry and Cho used to be. It's called "Teardrops On My Guitar" by Taylor Swift. Definately my favourite song of the week! I have lots of other ones too but ... I'm a bit too lazy to list them. All the ones that have already been mentioned are great, guys!
bellarosa
:: Hermione to Harry ::

"Teardrops on my guitar" -Taylor Swift :: (thanks for reminding me L.L. Potter!

"[He, Harry] looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see...
I bet she's beautiful that girl he talks about [Ginny, Cho], and she's got everything
that I got to live about....
She better hold him tight and give him all the love, look in those beautiful eyes
and ah she's lucky..."

"I won't say I'm in love" -- Meg from Hercules

(Hermione won't admit to herself that she loves Harry)

"No chance no way, I won't say it
It's too cliche I wont say it
You're way off base, get off my case I wont say it...
At least out loud I wont say Im in love..."

"I will love you always forever" --Donnna Lewis (great song!)

"Feels like, I'm standing in a timeless dream,
Secret moments, shared in the heat of the afternoon...
I love you, always forever
Near and far, closer together
Everywhere, I will be with you
Everything, I will do for you
You've got, the most unbelievable
blue eyes I've ever seen (in the movies he does!..."

:: Harry to Hermione ::

"Everything" -Lifehouse (perfect song!)

"You are the light, thats leading me
to the place, where I find peace....
You are the strenght that keeps me walking,
you are the hope that keeps me trusting,
You are my purpose, you're everything...
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you,
And you tell me how can it be any better than this..."

"You're all that I have" --Snow Patrol

"There is a darkness deep in you
A frightening magic I cling to...
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto...
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have..."

:: Ginny to Harry ::

(it's a song in spanish that I'll translate)

"Seduccion (seduction)" -Thalia

"Seduction dangerous potion that posions my body,
seduction, dangerous potion, sin for your lips...
What you have done is taken advantage of my desire for you,
You have taken me in your arms and I have no control,
Falling into your lust..."

:: James to Lily ::

"Just the Girl" --Click Five

"She laughs about my dreams but i dream about her laughter...
strange as it seems she's the one Im after....
She's a mystery, she's too much for me but I keep coming back for more,
she's just the girl Im looking for...
And the more she ignores me the more I adore her,
what can I do I'd do anything for her..."

:: Ron to Lavendar ::

"Future Ex-Boyfriend" -RBD

"She doesn't understand everything I have inside,
she doesn't notice my true feelings...
She's my constant storm, my fever at the moment...
I'm her future ex-boyfriend...

I love this topic I'll probably post more later on!

Oh one more!


:: Harry to Hermione ::
"Mother I just can't get enough" --New Radicals

"There’s something about you,
Tears me inside out whenever you're around...
And there’s something about you....
That makes me feel so good
I get a feeling, you get a feeling we got a feeling
Like we're alive
Mother we just can't get enough....
This world may not have too much time
But baby I'm fine because maybe you're mine...
It's you for me, and me for you
You make my dreams come true
Off the wall coming from me
But I wanna see this through, my baby
You're on my mind all the time..."

Happy shipping!

Listen to 'Poison' by Alice Cooper and sing these words instead. It really works. If you use this for anything remember that I made it! It took ages but was really fun!!

Snape's Song.



Poor Dumbledore
You lie on the floor
My curse will kill
You’re at my will…
Surrounded by Death Eaters and they’re willing me on (me on)
Know I have to do it but my senses tell me to stop
I’ve known you for so long and I owe you so much (so much)
But I’m binded by a vow and I can’t escape it now…
My Dark Mark’s powering my mind
My Dark Mark, stopping me from breaking away
Your face so pained
You plead my name
The Dark Mark so black
The Dark Lord is back…
I hear you pleading and you’re pleading my name (my name)
But if I leave you you’ll find out where my loyalties lie
Don’t want to hurt you ‘cos you gave me so much (so much)
I need to kill you ‘cos I promised her that I would…
Narcissa yeah she made me swear
Narcissa I just have to help Draco
Draco
My curse will kill
You’re at my will
Don’t want to kill you but I’m binded by vow (by vow)
I want to thank you for trusting me all these years
Faithful to Narcissa but I want you to know (to know)
Don’t want to kill you but I made the unbreakable vow…
The vow is running through my veins
The vow, not allowed to break these chains
Vow…
I want to save you, but I’ve a duty to do (to do)
I want to help you but my Dark Mark’s holding me back
I want to fight him but he’s taken me in (me in)
I need to kill you, I’ll regret it, please forgive me yeah…
I don’t want to do this deed, Avada, oh no
Binded tightly to this vow, Dark Mark burning on my wrist
Kadavra, Please forgive Albus…




I hope you like it- i guess it does portray what i think good old snape's motives are! Comments greatfully received.
workaholic_1231
Ok I've got a couple more...

For the relationship that Harry shared with Dumbledore, I think the song You Raised me up by Josh Groban fits perfectly.

I was deciding on the theme song for Severus Snape and these are what I've come up with:

Last Resort by Papa Roach
Renegade by Styx tongue.gif
Better Man by Pearl Jam
Best of you by The Foo Fighters


And for the ship Hermione and Severus which I'm a huge fan of these are my ideas:
Hanging by a Moment by Lifehouse
Don't you forget about me by Simple Minds
I'll be by Edwin McCain
Don't stop Believing by Journey


Ok that's all I have for now, but I'm sure I'll come up with more later.
Ladie Lily Potter

Wow... you thought of some really great songs. They all fit perfectly. I am very impressed and i agree with you 100% biggrin.gif
ILoveHarryPotter07
I just came back from seeing the fifth movie and for some reason I kept thinking of the song "I will follow you into the dark" by Death Cab for Cutie. I think it works for Harry and Ginny.

Hey there Delilah by Plain white T's and Oh, it is love by Hellogoodbye also remind me of Harry and Ginny, especially if they get back together in book 7 it will make even more sense.
HJP/HJG_TrueLove
i have a couple more for my ship Harry/Hermione breathing by a lifehouse or hanging by a moment by lifehouse

How to Save a Life for either Sirius, Dumbledore, or Cedrics death.

Whoever said Fix You by Coldplay I agree with that

and the snape song someone made was pretty good to

ginny26
here without you by three doors down. for harry and ginny
HPnerd_0512
I was just listening to Fall At Your Feet by Crowded House, and it struck me that this is perfect for Snape and Lily! Have a look:

Whenever I fall at your feet
You let your tears rain down on me

See? And:

The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
If you want my presence or need my help
Who knows when that might be?

A beautiful song of unrequited love and epic sadness.
Ladie Lily Potter
I think the song "Someday" by Steve Earle fits Harry's feelings at the Burrow. Well ... maybe if the lyrics in the verses were changed but the chorus is what really strikes me:

Someday I'm finally gonna let go
I know there's a better way
I wanna know what's over that rainbow
I'm gonna get out of here someday


It's a great song. I love it.
HP number one Fan
I think the song Love said No By HIM is very appropriate for "The Prince's Tale" Chapter for all those who have read the Deathly Hallows. You will know why if you have read it.

And love's light blue
Led me to you
Through all the emptiness that had become my home
Love's lies cruel
Introduced me to you
And at that moment I knew I was out of hope

Kill me
I begged and love said no
Leave me
for dead and let me go
Kill me
I cried and love said no
Kill me
I cried and love said no

Love's icy tomb
Dug open for you
Lies in a cemetery that bears my name
Love's violent tune
From me to you
Rips your heart out and leaves you
bleeding with a smile on your face

Kill me
I begged and love said no
Leave me
for dead and let me go
Kill me
I cried and love said no
Kill me
I cried and love said no

And love said no


And a song called Complicated by Robin Thicke

"Complicated"

I wish I could change
I wish I could change
I wish I could stop
Sayin the same old things
I wish I could be
Who u want me 2 be
I wish I could stop
Being the same old me
I wish I could lose
All of my blues
I wish I could stop
Puttin my blues on u
I wish I could love
Like nobody loves
I wish that my goods
Outweighed my bads enough

Theres no way Theres no way Theres no way
I can get back that girl
Cause Im 2 complicated
And shes not complicated
But Im 2 complicated

I wish I could change
I wish I could change
I wish I could stop
Placin the blame
I cant stop it
I cant break down
I cant drop it cant see how
I wish I could lose
All of my blues
I wish I could stop
Puttin my blues on u
I wish I could love
I wish that my goods
Outweighed my bads enough

Brings a tear to my eye. eeek.gif

This is one for Lily to sing to Severus when he called her a "Mudblood"

Stanger by Hilary Duff

Nobody believes me when I tell them that you're out of your mind.
Nobody believes me when I tell them that there's so much you hide.
You treat me like a queen when we go out,
wanna show everyone what our love's about.
All wrapped up in me whenever there is a crowd,
But when no ones around;

There's no kindness in your eyes,
The way you look at me, it's just not right.
I can tell whats going on this time,
Theres a stranger in my life.
You're not the person that I once knew.
Are you scared to let them know it's you?
If they could only see you like I do,
Then they would see a stranger too..

Did I ever do anything that was this cruel to you?
Did I ever make you wonder who was standing in the room?
You made yourself look perfect in every way,
So when this goes down, I'm the one that will be blamed.
Your plan is working so you can just walk away,
Baby your secret's safe.

Such a long way back, from this place that we are at.
When I think of all the time I've wasted, I could cry..

Back when I made my original post in thsi thread, I associated this song with Dumbledore, but for some unknown reason, and because I have been reading lot's of posts about the Veil lately, I sort of changed my mind.........

Sirius Black....My Way, for this line, do you think he was singing it whilst dueslling with Bellatrix?

'...and now the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...'

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's Brilliant!!! laugh.gif

The song Kama by Alicia Keys reminds me of Voldemort

"What goes around comes around" well it certainly did when it came to his Avada Kedavra curse! It went around and came back to him. Twice! Talk about unlucky!

I thought that the song Tomorrow by SR-71 fits Harry's situation in the order of the phoenix. The lyrics really describe his situation with Voldemort.

Well, I don't know if anyone's listed this yet, but I think the songs“Glittering Clouds” by Imogen Heap and "Animal I Have Become" by Three Days Grace fit Lupin.

what about "Magic Works" for Ron and Hermione? tongue.gif AND that was actually in the movie, how perfect is that?

Ok, seriously now...the Frank Sinatra "My way" really sounds perfect.

What about "Teenagers" by My Chemical Romance to all Hogwarts students? Specially when ...

Dirty Little Secrets, I can't remember who sang it, but it would go well when the Daily Prophet made up dirty little secrets about Harry, like in the 4th book!

And this song would fit to anyone who lost a lover...

You were always there
I'd think of you all the time
But now that you're gone I'd think of you
Twice as much
Catch my tears
Catch my tears
Because they're only for you
Oh Whoa Ho
Tall and sharp mountains
Now are low and dull hills
Blue and sparkling rivers
Are now brown and mossy streams
Green and flowery fields
Are now yellow and colorless
Catch my tears
Catch my tears
And you'll just know
When you were here with me
Skies were clear and open
Not cloudy and blocked
Threatening to rain
Upon our memories
Catch my tears
Catch my tears
Cause I just
Can't...think...right
Now that you're
Forever...gone


That's the whole song, do you like it? It's supposed to be sad, but the thing is, I WORTE THAT SONG!! You won't find it anywhere online obviously, but I wrote it, do you like it?

In her eyes- by josh groban for Ron and Hermione

rebel_megz
Does anyone like that song I wrote? It's for a different book that I'm writing, it's quite different from the Harry Potter seris, but it's inspired from it, and has a lot more action in it.

I found a great song for HarryGinny and RonHermione;
I Wanna Love Somebody Like You by Keith Urban

And for Crabbe and Goyle;
You're Pitiful by Weird Al Yankovic (It's so funny!)

And last but not least, for the Malfoys;
I'll Sue Ya by Weird Al Yankovic (soooo suits them!)

Please tell me if you like my song that I wrote, I need more opinions!!
HUFFLESLYTHERAVENDOR
probably

rush: passage to bangkok for the train ride

stryper: soldiers under command for the d.a. parts

and the list shall go on!
gryffindorgirlie
Gosh, I love this topic.....

OK heres my ideas:

Call and Return - Hellogoodbye. It's the best song ever! I think this would go with the whole Ron and Hermione ship!

Golden Skans - Klaxons. I think this would go god go with a trailer. Particularly Dh trailer. I can imagine some scenes in there...

Golden Train - Justin Nozuka. If you listen to the lyrics you could imagine the hogwarts express being harry's escape. Plus it's a train, duh!

Signal Fire - Snow Patrol. I think the lyrics and theme and everything discribe Harry's emotions really well

I believe I can fly - R.Kelly. For the end shot in PoA movie. Chessy song for a cheesy ending!

Let's go fly a Kite - Mary Poppins. Luna reminds me a bit of Mary poppins and it always seems like Luna's really happy. It's a happy song. If you haven't seen Mary Poppins, you should go to prison. It's a crime.

Teenage Dirtbag - Wheatus. It sums Ron up great. Moody. Plus I reckon Hermione could be who Wheatus sings about.

P.S. I've got my iPod on and I was just flicking through LOL tongue.gif
DeSs
I know I'm not having any idea now, but a question for all of you:
¿Wouldn't be great to HEAR those songs actually in the film?
I mean, I'd love hear "Fix you" at Dumbledore's funeral ,wouldn't you?
It'd be ... simply marvelous.
DracosLady
I have two songs that come to mind one is for Harry and the other for Draco here is the first one:

"Blaze of Glory" by Bon Jovi This is for Draco:

I wake up in the morning
And I raise my weary head
I got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run a six gun lover
A candle in the wind

When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I did'nt have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that Im wanted
Yeah I'm a wanted man
I'm a colt in your stable
I'm what Cain was to Abel
Mister catch me if you can
I'm going down in a Blaze of Glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going down in a Blaze of Glory
Lord I never drew first
I'm no one's son
Call me young gun

You ask about my conscience
And I offer you my soul
You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I'll grow old
You ask me if I known love
And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
Well I've seen love come
And I've seen it shot down
I've seen it die in vain
Shot down in a Blaze of Glory
Take me now but know the truth
"Cause I'm going down in a Blaze of Glory
Lord i never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm the devil's son
Call me young gun

Each night I go to bed
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I ain't asking for forgiveness
But before I'm six foot deep
Lord, I got to ask a favor
And I'll hope you'll understand
"Cause I've lived life to the fullest
Let the boy die like a man
Staring down the bullet
Let me make my final stand
Shot down in a Blaze of Glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a Blaze of Glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
And I'm no one's son
Call me young gun
I'm a young gun

I thought that song was at first more fitting for Harry but then I changed it to Draco, the next song reminds me of Harry:

"wanted Dead or Alive" by Bon Jovi this is for Harry:

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home

(Chorus)
I'm a cowboy on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted Dead or Alive
I'm a cowboy
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep. sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their seperate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone all you do is think

(Chorus)

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, 'cause i might not make it back
I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted dead or alive
And I ride, dead or alive
I still drive, dead or alive
Dead or alive(x 4)

These songs when I hear them they remind me of Draco and Harry enjoy biggrin.gif

Marcey tongue.gif

And times when you're alone all you do is think
Nasuada
Haha! Every time I hear the song The Anthem by Good Charlotte, it reminds me of Fred and George. Especially this part:

"Go to college, a university, get a real job,"
That's what they said to me
But I could never live the way they want
I'm gonna get by and just do my time, out of step while they all get in line
I'm just a minor threat so pay no mind


Haha! So Fred and George! biggrin.gif
LadyMalfoy
For Harry because he's not like everyone else "The Pretender" by the Foo Fighters. It's slightly alterntive, but if you listen to the lyrics it's all about not fitting in and how it's not worth it to try if you can't fit in. XD (that made sense in my head)
PottyHead
I think for the scene in DH where Harry uses the ring, and then accepts his death and goes on to find LV I would to see 'Let it be - The Beatles.' It's such a lush song and i can just imagine a really cute, cheesy scene to go with it.

forsaken_wolfess
Keep holding on by Avril Lavenge makes me think of Tonks and Lupin in the last battle and stuff. wub.gif

Seasons of Love from Rent would need totally be perfect if you changed a couple of the lyrics from normal things ('coffee') to harry potter stuff.('butterbeer?')

Chemicals React by Ally and AJ is a whole lot like Ron and Hermione's lifestyle.
After the Burial
Nasuada, I sometimes find myself thinking of Fred and George when I hear those lyrics. I think they apply to a few other characters, like Voldemort. He must not have very many galleons in the bank.
Evil_Martian
"What I've Done" by Linkin Park, for after Lily had that fight with Snape and "No one mourns the wicked" from Wicked, the Musical. It makes me think of Voldemort after he died.
HarryPotterIsLife
smile.gif I'm a HUGE Snape/Hermione shipper, and I wrote a songfic towards the ship with the song "Into the Night" by Santana. The lyrics just struck me one day in Algebra, and I wrote it in not even ten minuets.
DracosLady
I've got a couple more songs that I found that to me fits the couples of the HP series, these are love ballads and some of my faves, the first one reminds me of Draco and Pansy, then later his wife...

"When I Look into Your Eyes" by Firehouse

I see forever when I look in your eyes
You're all I ever wanted, I always want you to be mine
Let's make a promise till the end of time
We'll always be together, and our love will never die

So here we are face to face and heart to heart
I want you to know we will never be apart
Now I believe that wishes can come true

Cause I see my whole world, I see only you

Chorus
When I look into your eyes
I can see how much I love you, and it makes me realize
When I look into your eyes
I see all my dreams come true
When I look into your eyes

I've looked for you all of my life
Now that I've found you, we will never say goodbye
I can't stop this feeling, there's nothing I can do
Cause I see everything, when I look into at you

Chorus
When I look into your eyes
I can see how much I love you, and it makes me realize
When I look into your eyes
I see all my dreams come true
When I look into your eyes, ohhh

When I look into your eyes
I can see how much I love, and it makes me realize
When I look into your eyes
We will always be together, and our love will never die
When I look into your eyes
I see all my dreams come true
When I look into your eyes.....

My next song is a love song that reminds me of Ron and Hermione and all of the trials and tribulations they have been through

"Without You" by Motley Crue

Without you, there's no change
My nights and Days are grey
If I reached out and touched the rain
It just would'nt feel the same

Without you I'd be lost
I'd slip down from the top
I'd slide down so low
Girl, you'd never ever know

Without you, without you
A sailor lost at sea
Without you woman
The world comes down on me

Without you in my life
I'd slowly wilt and die
But with you by my side
You're the reason I'm alive
But with you in my life
You're the reason I'm alive
But without you, without you

Without you my hope is small
Let me be me all along
You let the fires rage inside
Knowing someday I'd grow strong

Without you, without you
A sailor lost at sea
Without you woman
The world comes down on me

Without you in my life
I'd slowly wilt and die
But with you by my side
You're the reason I'm alive
But with you in my life
You're the reason I'm alive
But without you, without you

I could face a mountain
But I could never climb alone
I could start another day
But how many, I just don't know
You're the reason the sun shines down
And the nights they don't grow cold
Only you that I'll hold when I'm young
Only you..as we grow old

Without you in my life
I'd slowly wilt and die
But with you by my side
You're the reason I'm alive
But with you in my life
You're the reason I'm alive
But without you....without you..

Ok and my final song is for Harry and Ginny it's a song about love lost and love found and trying to figure out where one is going

"Where You goin' Now?" by The Damn Yankees

There's a face in the mirror, and you close your eyes
Much easier to turn away, then to take a look inside
So you're thinking it's over, walking away
Let your little world crash and burn, ooh what a price to pay
Didn't anybody tell you it's not who's right or wrong
Hold the line, is this what's going on?

Where you goin' now?
When your world's turned inside out
Isn't love what it's all about?
Where you goin' now?
When you get to the top of the hill
Gonna be there yes I will

There's a crack in the mirror, there's a hole in the sun
Full moon in the midnight sky, and you feel like you wanna run
So you blow out the candles and you turn out the light
Then you stumble into darkness-who'd believe that love is blind?
Didn't anybody tell you it's never too late to try?
Hold the line, before you say goodbye

Where you goin' now?
When your world's turned inside out
Isn't love what it's all about?
Where you goin' now?
When you get to the top of the hill
Gonna be there yes I will

Now I'm not talking about whats good for me
And I'm not saying how you ought to be
But if there is a message shining on through to you
Take a little piece of mind and let that love-light shine

Didn't anybody tell you it's never too late to try?
Hold the line, before you say goodbye

Where you goin' now?
When your world's turnrd inside out
Isn't love what it's all about?
Where you goin' now?
When you get to the top of the hill
Gonna be there yes I will

Well I hope everyone's enjoyed my love ballad lyrics biggrin.gif wub.gif cool.gif
E.Austen
I'm a complete weirdo, because I listen to almost nothing but Classical and Celtic music. Almost none of them have lyrics, you just have to listen hard to the motifs.

So here are a few scenes which match Classical pieces:

1. Harry's first trip to Hogwarts: "The Pines of the Villa Borghese" from The Pines of Rome, Ottorino Respighi

2. Hogwarts life in general: Petrushka, Igor Stravinsky

3. Harry's coming across the Mirror of Erised: La Cathédrale Engloutie, Claude Debussy

4. When Ginny is taken into the Chamber of Secrets: "Pines near a Catacomb," from The Pines of Rome, Ottorino Respighi

5. The Triwizard Tournament: "The Jubilee," from Roman Festivals, Ottorino Respighi

6. The attack on Hogwarts and Dumbledore's death: "Danse Infernale," from The Firebird, Igor Stravinsky

7. Voldemort has taken over; the Trio infiltrates the Ministry of Magic, rescues Muggleborns, and then they are on the run: Quartet No. 8, Dmitri Shostakovich

8. The Trio on the run and searching for Horcruxes: "Adagio," from Concerto for Piccolo and Orchestra, Lowell Liebermann

9. The Battle of Hogwarts: The Rite of Spring, Igor Stravinsky


With those, some of you probably don't have a clue what I'm talking about, but that's okay. I'm just overly familiar with Classical music.

Here's the last one I have to mention. It's not Classical music, but again, no lyrics:

10. Harry, Ron, and Hermione flying across the country on the dragon: "The Sixth Station," from the soundtrack of the Miyazaki anime Spirited Away
Aguamenti353
I think "Ready Set Go" by Tokio Hotel would fit really well in the fighting scenes with Voldemort. The chorus is what goes the best:

Ready Set Go it's time to run
The sky is changing we are one
Together we can make it
While the world is crashing down
Don't you turn around


One that I think would go good with Harry in the later years when he's looking back on all the good times and all the people who've died for him, and he's feeling really down is "Falling in the Black" by Skillet.

I'm falling to the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever come back?
Dreaming of the way it used to be
Can you hear me?



Haha and maybe "White and Nerdy" by Weird Al Yancovich for Neville tongue.gif
DracosLady
I have a whole new set of songs dedicated to Snape, The Order and Ron Weasley himself, I'll start off with Snape's song, I heard it on the radio last night and it is so fitting for him...

"Touch of Grey" by The Grateful Dead

Must be getting early, clocks are running late.
Paint my love a morning sky, it's all cold.
Dawn is breaking everywhere, light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains, I don't care but it's allright
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.

I see you've got your list out, say your piece and kiss off
Guess I get the jist of it, but it's allright
Oh well anyway, sorry that you feel that way.
Every silver linings got a touch of grey
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.

It's a lesson to me, the ablers and the beggars and the theives.
The abc's we all think of, try to win a little love.
I know the rent is in the arrears, the dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears, but it's allright.

Cow is giving kerosene, kid can't read at seventeen
The words he knows are all obscene, but it's allright
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.

Shoe on the hand that fits, thats all there really is to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit, but it's allright

Oh well a touch of grey, kinda suits me anyway,
Thats all I had to say, but it's allright
I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.

It's a lesson to me, the devils and the east and the free
The abc's we all must face, then try to save a little grace.

Ok now here is an ode to Ron Weasley I also heard this song last night and it is just too funny to pass up...

"Once in a Lifetime" by Talking Heads

And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself--Well how did I get here?

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

Same as it ever was(repeat 7 times)

Water dissolving...water removing
there is water at the bottom of the ocean
Carry the water at the bottom of the ocean
Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean!

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, into the silent water
Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground.

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

And you may ask yourself
What is that beautiful house?
And you may ask yourself
Where does that highway lead too?
And you may ask yourself
Am I right? Am I wrong?
And you may tell yourself
My God! What have I done?

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, in the silent water
Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

Same as it ever was (repeat 7 times)

And the last song I picked out relates to the Order and the battle against Voldy and it may actually hit home to alot of us, I know it does for me.

"Civil War" by Guns N Roses

"What we've got here is failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach...
So, you get what we had here last week,
Which is the way he wants it!
Well he gets it!
N' I don't like it any more than you men."

Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
My bloody hands can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars

D'you wear a black armband
When they shot the man
Who said "Peace could last forever"
And in my first memories
They shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
So I never fell for Vietnam
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all
That you can't trust freedom
When it's not in your hands
When everybody's fighting for their promised land!

And I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war

Look at the shoes your filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
Look at the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more

My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on as the years go by
With no love of God or human rights
"Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars

We practice selective annihilation of mayors
And government officials
For example to create a vacuum
Then we will fill that vacuum
As popular war advances
Peace is closer

I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
And I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war

I don't need one more war
Whaz so civil 'bout war anyway?

Again I hope everyone enjoys the song lyrics that I have written blink.gif rolleyes.gif wacko.gif

Marcey biggrin.gif
DracosLady
Gosh nobodies been here for awhile, well I've got another song hoe everyone reads it and finds it amusing and fitting, it is sung by Neville Longbottom about High School life at Hogwarts.

High School Never Ends by Bowling For Soup

(Neville Singing)

Four years you think for sure
Thats all you've got to endure
All the total thicks
All the stuck up chicks
So superficial, so immature
You take a look around and you say Hey Wait!
This is the same as where I just came from
I thought it was over
Aw thats just good

Chorus

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who's the best dressed and who's having sex
Who's got the money, who gets the honeys
Who's kinda cute, and who's just a mess
And you still don't have the right look
And you don't have the right friends
Nothing changes but the faces, the names, the trends
High school never ends

Check out the popular kids
You'll never guess what Malfoy did
How did Goyle lose all that weight
And Ginny had a baby so I guess Harry's straight
And the only thing that matters
Is climbing that social ladder
Still care 'bout your hair and the broom you fly
Does'nt matter if you're sixteen or thirty-five

Hermione Granger, she's the Prom Queen
Ron Weasley, Captian of the Chess Team
Vincent Crabbe the Clown
Oliver Wood the quarterback
I've seen all this before
I want my money back

Chorus

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who's the best dressed and who's having sex
Who's in the clubs an who's on the drugs
Who's throwing up before they digest
And you still don't have the right look
And you don't have the right friends
And you till listen to the same stuff you did back then
High school never ends

High school never ends

Chorus

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who's the best dressed and who's having sex
Who's got the money, who gets the honeys
Who's kinda cute and who's just a mess
And I still don't have the right look And I still have the same three friends
And I'm pretty much the same as I was back then

High school never ends
High school never ends

Here we go again!

Enjoy hope you like it got this from a video off of YouTube that stars the HP cast!
nicky potter
only for a sec the scene in PoA when hermione & harry knew that they needed to go back in time & use the time turner the song from gwen stefani - what are you waiting for comes to mind ( : i thought that was funny
DeSs
I think this song is related to RHr's stubborness about their feelings:

I'm not in love (don't remember whose it's)

I'm not in love, so don't forget it.
It's just a silly phase I'm going through.
And just because I call you up,
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made.
I'm not in love, no no, it's because...
I like to see you, but then again,
That doesn't mean you mean that much to me.
So if I call you, don't make a fuss -
Don't tell your friends about the two of us.
I'm not in love, no no, it's because...
I keep your picture upon the wall.
It hides a nasty stain that's lying there.
So don't you ask me to give it back.
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me.
I'm not in love, no no, it's because...
Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me.
Ooh, you'll wait a long time.
I'm not in love, I'm not in love...

And then, for the *cough*riddiculouslyannoying*cough* RL couple in HBP, the reason for which they were together:

Whistle for the Choir - The Fratellis

Well it's a big big city and it's always the same
Can never be too pretty tell me your name
Is it out of line if I was to be bold and say "Would you be mine"?

Because I may be a beggar and you maybe the queen
I know I maybe on a downer I'm still ready to dream
Now it's 3 o'clock the time is just the time it takes for you to talk

So if you're lonely why'd you say you're not lonely
Oh you're a silly girl, I know I heard it so
It's just like you to come and go
And know me no you don't even know me
You're so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye
A girl like you's just irresistible

Well it's a big big city and the lights are all out
But it's much as I can do you know to figure you out
And I must confess, my hearts in broken pieces
And my heads a mess
And it's 4 in the morning, and I'm walking along
Beside the ghost of every drinker here who has ever done wrong
And it's you, woo hoo
That's got me going crazy for the things you do

So if you're crazy I don't care you amaze me
But you're a stupid girl, oh me, oh my, you talk
I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry
And only, a girl like you could be lonely
And it's a crying shame, if you would think the same
A boy like me's just irresistible

So if you're lonely, why'd you say you're not lonely
Oh you're a silly girl, I know I heard it so
It's just like you to come and go
And know me, no you don't even know me
You're so sweet to try oh my, you caught my eye
A girl like you's just irresistible

Because he had to be drunk to date her! tongue.gif (and so all the nice sounding things the song says are because he was drunk)
Emmas-man159
rolleyes.gif Well I definately think that for Ron and Hermione it would have to be "everywhere". Im not sure who does it originally, but Yellow card covers it and its awesome.

for Harry and Ginny, it would have to be either Hero/Herione, or On top of the World, both by boys like girls..

For Harry's overall life, i really picture "untitled" by Simple plan. Or 'Me Against the World'

Snape's song is most definately, "vidicated" by Dashboard confessional. No questions asked. biggrin.gif

"Half life" by Duncan Sheik for Sirius

After Harry wins, after everything's over a good song for like a flashback would be "100 years" by Five for Fighting.


There's so many more but i dont have much more time. Be back later though! laugh.gif

I think another good song for Mr. Severus would be "under pressure" by Queen. !!! What do you think? I mean it fits! Right? All the double agent stuff he does. HUH!? YEAH? no..? yeahh... Anyway. Just a thought.
forsaken_wolfess
I've got another one... I just heard this on the radio and the lyrics made me think of Ron and Hermione, even if the song itself was a little annoying.
I probably shouldn't say this
But at times I get so scared
When I think about the previous
Relationship we shared
It was awesome but we lost it
It's not possible for me not to care
And now we're standing in the rain
But nothing's ever gonna change until you hear
My dear

The seven things I hate about you
The seven things I hate about you
Oh you
You're vain, your games
You're insecure
You love me, you like her
You make me laugh
You make me cry
I don't know which side to buy
Your friends they're jerks
When you act like them
Just know it hurts
I wanna be with the one I know
And the seventh thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you

It's awkward and its silent
As I wait for you to say
What I need to hear now
Your sincere apology
When you mean it I'll believe it
If you text it I'll delete it
Let's be clear
Oh, I'm not coming back
You're taking seven steps here

Chorus:
The seven things I hate about you
You're vain, your games
You're insecure
You love me, you like her
You make me laugh, you make me cry
I don't know which side to buy
Your friends they're jerks
When you act like them
Just know it hurts
I wanna be with the one I know
And the seventh thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you

And compared to all the great things
That would take too long to write
I probably should mention the seven that I like

The seven things I like about you
Your hair, your eyes
Your old Levis
When we kiss I'm hypnotized
You make me laugh, you make me cry
But I guess that's both I'll have to buy
Your hand in mine
When we're intertwined
Everything's alright
I wanna be with the one I know
And the seventh thing I like the most that you do
You make me love you

Can't you just picture Hermione telling Ron this? smile.gif
harryjpotter
There is a perfect song for the Harry/Ginny ship:

I Get So Lonely (Oh Baby Mine) by The four Knights

It's a fab upbeat song but at the same time the lyrics fit Harry so well! It's almost comical.
