dolorosa_12Sometimes my brain worries me.
So, I generally have some bizarre commentary running through my head whenever I'm walking, and this commentary usually has a soundtrack. Without any warning, as I was walking to my German class this morning, the Heidelberg cobblestones brought to my mind the most vivid image: Babylonne Kidrouk, the protagonist of Pagan's Daughter, rushing through the streets of 13th-century Toulouse, wearing an iPod, playing 'Firestarter' by The Prodigy. Hey, don't blame me, I'm just a product of my Gen-Y remix culture!
You know how I do geeky things like make playlists for fictional characters? Yeah, guess what I did next...
1. 'Firestarter', The Prodigy. I'm a firestarter, punking instigator
2. 'Granite', Pendulum. You can hide your eyes, you can dim the lights/ But they are watching/ This is a new time, with a different kind/ They are the future/ The only one
3. 'Jackson's Last Stand', Ou Est Le Swimming Pool. It's all go, go, go, go/ It's time for things to get better/ It's time for things to move on/ Instead of this you row, row, row, row/ You're staying with me forever/ Cause this is, it's my last stand
4. 'Letters to Bowie Knife', Calexico. This world's an ungodly place/ Strangled by vines unchaste/ So with my shining blade of steel/ I would cut a path wide
5. 'The Tempest', Pendulum. While you are letting your guard down/ I will be letting myself go/ While you are running your ship aground/ I will be setting myself alight
6. 'Punching in a Dream', The Naked and Famous. Wait, I don't even want to be here/ Like punching in a dream/ Breathing life into a nightmare
7. 'Time To Burn', Storm. It's time to burn
8. 'Bullet', Covenant. Time is like a bullet from behind/ I run for cover, just like you/ Time is like a liquid in my hands/ I swim for dry land, just like you
9. 'Blinding', Florence+The Machine. No more dreaming like a girl, so alone, so in love with the wrong world
10. 'Watercolour', Pendulum. Pretty much all the lyrics, but especially All I believe/ and all I've known/ are being taken from me/ ... Take me home
Babylonne would totally listen to melodramatic dance music. And if not, she would listen to angsty 90s nu metal. You know it's true.
