The Alpha Flight Playlist.

[DelBubs]

Kinda bored, so thought I'd give this a whirl. Basically take a Alpha character (Hero or Villain) and associate any song you think would fit with them. So to start off, I'm gonna go with

Snowbird = 'True Colors' by Cyndi Lauper

[DIGGER]

Marrina = 'Not Ready to make nice' by the Dixie Chicks
Master = 'Everybody Wants to Rule The World' --Tears for Fears

Digger

[Sypes]

haha best thread ever!

Aurora: Multiple Myselves - Violent J of the Insane Clown Posse

[Sypes]

Northstar's gay life seems to easy to do but here goes:

I am what I am - Gloria Gaynor
Born this way - Lady Gaga

His rebel, independent and *****y queen side is harder to find haha

[Alpha Rider]

Guardian- Neon Knights by Black Sabbath
Puck- Evil, Wicked, Mean and Nasty by Keel or Stand Tall by Killer Dwarfs or Little Big Man by Samson or Wicked Man by SFM
North Star- Speed by Loudness
Aurora- Heavy Mental Break Down by Killer Dwarfs
Merina- Evil Invders by Razor
Wild Child- Wild Child by WASP
Sasquatch- Bark at the Moon by Ozzy

[DelBubs]

Given his present state of mind I would have gone for '21st Century Schizoid Man - King Crimson' for Puck.

[Le Messor]

Aurora - Magic, by Mick Smiley (the most split-personality song ever!)
Guardian - anything by Guardian
Vindicator - Vindicated by Dashboard Confessional
Marrina - Calling by Rose Tattoo (it's about whales) or anything from 'Oceanborn' by Nightwish
Snowbird - Snow White Queen by Evanescence or White Queen (As It Began) by Queen
(True Colours? Why?)
DreamQueen - March Of The Black Queen by Queen
Shaman - Run To The Hills by Iron Maiden or Magic Man by Heart
Sasquatch - Sasquatch by Camel
Northstar - Lost Northern Star by Tarja
Puck - Just The Two Of Us by Dr. Evil and Mini-Me

[Flightpath07]

Aurora – Lenny Kravitz's "Fly Away"

Snowbird – Helloween’s “Twilight of the Gods”

Vindicator – Helloween’s “I Want Out”

Puck – The Killer Dwarf’s “Stand Tall”

Shaman – Primal Fear’s “Heart of a Brave”

Sasquatch – The Dead Milkmen’s “The Thing That Only Eats Hippies”

Honorable mention goes to the official Alpha Flight tune, Bon Jovi's "Dead Or Alive"

[Le Messor]

Snowbird - (True Colours? Why?)

(Never mind. I figured it out.)

[Flightpath07]

Flashback - Triumph's "Time Goes By"

[Alphan East]

OK, let's try some that haven't been done yet:

Box - "Man in the Machine" by Royworld
Persuasion - "Purple Girl" by the Chills
Centennial - "Old Man" by Neil Young
The Great Beasts - "Treacherous Gods" by Ensiferum
Manikin - "Man Out of Time" by Elvis Costello
Earthmover - "I Feel the Earth Move" by Carole King

[Alpha Rider]

Shaman - Run To The Hills by Iron Maiden
I know the song and it's reference to the Europians coming overb but don't you think it's a bit too negitive and has nothing to do with him besides being a Native indian?

[Alpha Rider]

SNowbird- Seven Deadly Sins by Loudness

[Le Messor]

I know the song and it's reference to the Europians coming overb but don't you think it's a bit too negitive and has nothing to do with him besides being a Native indian?

Then I'm really glad I self-edited Queen's White Man!
(Just seemed like something he might relate to, though.)

- Le Messor
"If God had intended for man to fly, he would have given us the brains to build airplanes."

[Alpha Rider]

Yeah I though about useing Run to the Hills, because I'm a huge Maiden fan and I've been listing to that song for almost 30 years, I know it quite well, but have desided not to.

[Le Messor]

Also, I had a hard time coming up with anything specific to Shaman - 'Ebeneezer Good'? (by Shaman?)

[DIGGER]

Guardian--O,Canada
Puck--Hockey Song (Stompin Tom), Raise A Little Hell (Trooper)
Box--Mr. Roboto (Styx)

DIGGER

[DelBubs]

Going with the Maiden theme

Shaman - Rainmaker
Puck - Can I Play With Madness
Sasquatch - Number of the Beast
Deadly Ernest - Paschendale
Aurora - Fear of the Dark
Diablo - The Alchemist

Thing is with Maiden, they've got such an extensive library that it would only take a little time to find songs for most characters.

[Alpha Rider]

Rainmaker is a great song for Shaman. Why didn't I think of it?:confused: Probablly that I have so many albums that I can't remember everything anymore. My HD crashed back in April and I had all my music on there, so now I have to put everything back on Going in Alpha-Beta-cal order I'm starting the H's and I have already over a 1000 albums on there so far. I'm keeping a list of the stuff I have now.

[Flightpath07]

Some more general off-the-top-of-my-head (cuz that's where i keep 'em!) thoughts:

Guardian - The Quiet Room by Alice Cooper ("your nightgown on the stairs, I'm alone in the quiet room")
Puck - Go To Hell by Megadeth
Vindicator - Somebody Put Something In My Drink by The Ramones


and, some others:

Gambit - Born On The Bayou by CCR
Ironman - Ironman by Black Sabbath (obvious one, I know)
War Machine - War Pigs by Black Sabbath
Nightcrawler - Nightcrawler by Judas Priest
Captain America - Trapped Under Ice by Metallica
Werewolf By Night - Of Wolf And Man by Metallica
Dreamqueen - Enter Sandman by Metallica

[DelBubs]

Now if only there was a song by Sabbath we could associate with 'Iron Man' :confused:

Enter Sandman is a brilliant choice for Dreamqueen.

[Alpha Rider]

Were Wolf by Night- Bad Moon Rising by CCR or Black Moon by EZO
Ghost Rider- Master of the Highway by Loudness of El Pacto by Thor (Argentina)
Centennial- Immortal by Anthem (Japan)

I don't think that the song Iron Man would suit the Charater, even though Bill Ward named the song after the Marvel charater the lyrics don't suit him. I'm thinking more like Demon Alcohol by Ozzy.

[DelBubs]

I think if we're going more for the Tony Stark aspect of the character, than something like 'The Dust Brothers' - 'What is Fight Club' seems to fit the world you'd imagine Stark as a Billionaire, Entreprenour (sp), womanizing p**shead would be living in.

[EccentricSage]

If you listen to the Lyrics, 'Born this Way' seems to be about being a drag queen rather than a gay guy. Granted, I only forced myself to sit through the song once.

Wildchild - 1000 Julys by 3rd Eye Blind

It particularly fits well with his feelings for Aurora post alpha flight.

Snowbird - Bang Bang by Winnipeg's Most
Puck - To Hell With the Devil by Stryper

[Le Messor]

Thanks, Yankee!


Snowbird - Bang Bang by Winnipeg's Most

Is that a cover of the song by Cher? (I think her version's a cover, too.)

[Mekko Hotvle]

I am not sure. I wanna say its not though. Winnipeg's Most is members of First Nations.

[Le Messor]

The song I'm thinking of has them playing cowboys and Indians as children, then growing up and he no longer cares about her - or has put her in the friend zone. So, 'Bang Bang, you shot me down, my baby shot me down'. Does that sound right?

[Mekko Hotvle]

Aurora- Half-crazy by Musiq Soudchild
