Do you use music as inspiration for specific characters/when you are writing? Post below to share specific songs for each character. You can return to it and edit to add songs to their playlist. That way we can enjoy each other's playlists and discover new music!

RE: Character playlists - Zechariah Meijer - 01-24-2022

Crazy Ex Girlfriend - Don't Be a Lawyer
"The job is inherently crappy, that's why you've never met a lawyer who's happy."

Stephen Sondheim/Josh Young - Later
Moreso for the attitude and the singer than the specific lyrics.

Kerrigan-Lowdermilk/Josh Young - Run Away With Me
Young Zech in love.

The Divine Comedy - Our Mutual Friend
Zech, one trial later.

Jonathan Coulton - Not About You
"This one is not about you, baby - you can take that one to the bank and shove it up your big fat ass!"

The fever dreams Zech has ever since marrying Sonia.

The whole damned song.

Spoiled, sleazy entitlement.

Not music, but inspiration nonetheless: Chris Distefano's mom.


RE: Character playlists - Loretta Ward - 01-30-2022

Three Ghosts Trio - Pantherland
Lory would be a surfer these days.

VÉRITÉ - ocean
I don't know that this actually fits, but I loop it for the instrumentals.

Allie X & VÉRITÉ - Casanova
Let's be real, probably both sides of this.

Kenton Chen & Postmodern Jukebox - Look What You Made Me Do
The article debacle and any other measures of spite she sees fit.

J. Geils Band - Centerfold

La maison jaune – Klô Pelgag

Abandon – Gazelle Twin

The Woods – San Fermin

Hunter – Björk

Notre-Dame-des-Sept-Douleurs II – Klô Pelgag

RE: Character playlists - Somniac - 05-15-2022

Henry Mancini - The Pink Panther
Tense and yet still kind of ridiculous.

Little Shop of Horrors - Feed Me
Aslan and Nisa.

Big Data ft. Jamie Lidell - Monster
When it started to dawn on him that the 'facts' were not lining up ...

Will Jay - Lies
Chorus self-explanatory.

Little Boots - New in Town
Charming criminals.

Jekyll & Hyde - Murder! Murder!
Aslan sweating every time he sees a noose victim.

Agnes Obel - The Curse
Cynical uncertainty with an undercurrent of hope.

Bishop Briggs - Tempt My Trouble
This is going well.
