A Journey Through My Music Tastes

Anyone remembers the Jukebox Game? LET'S PLAY! by Matt Cipher on 2018-12-28 20:50:00 UTC Reply

Man, it's been a while since I've seen this game on the Board, and I remember it being super amusing and a good creativity boost. So I'm bringing it back!

Da Rules are simple:

1. Post a song. Or two. Or seven. I'll start in this message.
2. Listen to any songs you want; and then write a message which fictional character it reminds you of and why?
3. Post your own songs!
4. Try not to generalize. Like, don't call ever song "that's the agents", "that's the Sues". Get creative! For example, if you hear Caro Emerald's That Man and say "That's Rose Tyler, singing about the Doctor!"

Clear? Cool! I'll start!

1) "She's a Lady" - Tom Jones

2) "Remember Me" from the movie Coco

3) "Mr. Pinstripe Suit" - Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

I listened to Mr. Pinstripe Suit and it really put me in mind of the Fleischer-styled games that came out recently - Cuphead, Bendy and the Ink Machine, stuff like that. It also made me realise just how much I'd love to do a full-on high-magic D&D campaign themed around Nawlins in the Roaring Twenties. =]

Anyway, here are some options for you guys. Matt said seven was fine, so seven's what you get:-

1) "Wisteria", Richard Shindell (Somewhere Near Paterson, 2000)

2) "Underneath the Stars", Kate Rusby (Underneath The Stars, 2003)

3) "The Mary-Ellen Carter", Stan Rogers (Between The Breaks... Live!, 1979)

4) "Acadian Driftwood", The Band (Northern Lights - Southern Cross, 1975)

5) "Recruiting Sergeant", Great Big Sea (Play, 1997)

6) "Old Maui", The Dreadnoughts (Uncle Touchy Goes To College, 2011)

7) "Bully In The Alley", trad. arr. var. (Deal Maritime Festival, 2013)

I listened to "She's a Lady". I haven't read far enough into Harry Potter to see Harry get together with Ginny, but I know they do, and I have a feeling that that'd be Harry singing about Ginny, maybe after they've been married, ignoring a certain cursed book and its cursed plot.

I have a lot of songs to offer, none of them with lyrics, because these are the songs I like to work with. How about we look through them?

1. (Obviously) "Hocus Pocus" by Focus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV0FXiR48Q

2. "Synthesized Angel" by Sakuzyo: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maXsMNFTFo">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maXsM_NFTFo

3. "Mr. Chow" by Acoustic Alchemy (starts off sounding kinda stereotyped, but please stick around): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2hOKkNGd4w

4. "Daunter" by Syrsa (don't click if you're in the TF2 fandom, because it's famous there): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8iE5mM-33s

5. "Vindicate Me" by Big Giant Circles (used in the Just Shapes and Beats soundtrack): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF5IETKtvGg

6. "Orion" by Ryan Henwood (Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime OST): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTyRvSBFfac

7. "Deep Sea Bass" by Danny Baranowsky (also from the Crypt of the NecroDancer OST): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rJFgTNiRuQ

8. "Symphonica" by Wayne Lytle (if you like this, please check out his other creation, the Animusic animations): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qym5ABtDApk

9. (Also obviously) "Try This" by Pegboard Nerds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggqI-HH8yXc

10. And for a nice mega-challenge, I challenge someone to listen to the entire Lichtspeer soundtrack and come up with a plot based on the music. https://lichthund.bandcamp.com/releases

Now that my huge music dump is done, I'd love to see some replies!
